Prevent Common Furnace Problems with Maintenance
During maintenance visits, we perform a detailed inspection and 21 Point Precision Tune-up to ensure that all components are operating properly.

Common Issues We Can Prevent with Regular Maintenance:
- Fan Problems - The fan in your home’s comfort system has several components that when left unattended, can fall into disrepair, problems commonly detected and attended by having a routine tune-up and cleaning.
- Burner Issues - The components in your furnace become dirty. When the burner is covered in a layer of dust and dirt, it may lead to problems, such as uneven heating, an inability for all the burners to light, and excessive wear and tear. Not to mention that unpleasant smell. During our Portland furnace maintenance appointments, the burner is inspected and cleaned, so that your home’s heating system can function at optimal efficiency.
- Ignition Problems - Many of today’s furnaces light with an electronic ignition. The fuel nozzle in the pilot can become clogged, which can block the gas from flowing. Dirt on the outside of the igniter can act as insulation, and the igniter won’t become hot enough to light the gas. Part of our maintenance services include cleaning these components, which helps prevent issues caused by dirt and grime.

Common FAQs
Yes, regular furnace maintenance can significantly improve energy efficiency. A clean, well-maintained furnace burns fuel more effectively and ensures optimal airflow, which reduces the strain on the system. This means your furnace doesn’t have to work as hard to heat your home, which translates to lower energy consumption and reduced heating costs.
Common signs that your furnace needs maintenance include strange noises, uneven heating, and frequent cycling on and off. Other indicators are a spike in your energy bills or if the furnace takes longer than usual to heat your home. Regular maintenance can prevent these problems and keep your furnace running smoothly throughout the colder months.
While homeowners can handle simple tasks like changing the air filters and cleaning the area around the furnace, professional maintenance is necessary for more in-depth inspections and tune-ups. HVAC technicians have the tools and expertise to identify and address issues that might not be visible to the untrained eye, such as cracks in the heat exchanger or electrical problems.
Furnace filters should be checked every 1 to 3 months, especially during the peak heating season. If you notice reduced airflow, dust buildup around vents, or the filter looks clogged and dirty, it's time for a replacement. A clean filter ensures proper airflow, improves efficiency, and helps maintain indoor air quality by trapping dust and debris.
If your furnace is blowing cold air, there could be several causes. First, check that the thermostat is set to “heat” and not “fan only.” A clogged air filter, pilot light issues, or problems with the burners can also lead to cold air. Scheduling a professional inspection will help diagnose and resolve the issue to ensure warm air circulates throughout your home.
Most manufacturers recommend having an annual inspection performed on your furnace. This allows you to make sure that all components of the furnace are working safely and efficiently. Additionally, having an annual tune-up ensures optimal performance from your system throughout the heating season.
