Your furnace is like your car; if you take care of it, you can prevent many unexpected breakdowns.

What to Expect During a Maintenance Service

During maintenance visits, we perform a detailed inspection and 21 Point Precision Tune-up to ensure that all components are operating properly. Our Portland furnace maintenance technicians clean the system, lubricate moving parts, inspect the electrical connections, test the voltage, and check that your system is operating at peak efficiency. We can perform adjustments and tune up services to improve energy efficiency and performance.

Common Problems We Can Prevent With Furnace 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 - 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 - 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.
