Roger The Plumber, a residential plumbing and HVAC services company, offers tips for maintaining the furnace during freezing winter temperatures and preventing breakdowns.

LENEXA, KS, February 18, 2021 /Neptune100/ — In the middle of winter, most homeowners are not thinking about ways to keep their furnace running smoothly and efficiently. As a result, simple maintenance can fall by the wayside and lead to premature problems. However, there are a few simple ways to make sure the furnace is functioning properly, especially during the winter.

General Manager Mike Paredez says, “Keeping the furnace on is the best way to make sure it continues to automatically turn on. Rather than manually turning the furnace on and off, set a comfortable temperature on the thermostat so that the unit is in constant contact with the furnace. This will help prevent breakdowns in the middle of winter.”

Homeowners should also continue to take basic maintenance steps; these include cleaning the drainage tube, inspecting the thermostat wires, clearing dust and debris from the furnace’s interior, cleaning the flame sensor, and regularly replacing the filter. The key to preventing breakdowns is to maintain the furnace year round.

If the furnace shows signs it needs repair, homeowners are encouraged to call Roger the Plumber for professional service. Each technician is licensed, bonded and insured, and trained to service a wide range of HVAC systems.
