3 Ways to Make Sure Your Furnace is Ready for Fall

October 17, 2016

There are undoubtedly some things you do to get yourself ready for fall in Manassas, like hang up your sweaters and plot your Instagram-worthy pumpkin carving. There are some things you could possibly forget about while getting ready for fall – like your furnace. We’re about to say sayonara to air conditioner weather and we’re headed into furnace season. Along with your annual furnace service from Woody's Sudden Service Inc, we have three tips that may help keep you cozy and get your furnace prepped for its busy season.

  1. Check and Replace Your Air Filter
    This is basic advice for every season in Manassas. Before you make that switch from “cool” to “heat,” go swap out your filter from dirty to clean. A dirty filter means your furnace has to work harder to keep you warm which might negatively impact your comfort and result in higher bills.
  2. Unblock Heating Vents and Registers
    As you’ve moved furniture or brought more into the house, make sure you haven’t blocked any of your heating vents. A blocked vent might increase your utility costs.
  3. Schedule Annual Furnace Service
    Fall is the ideal time in Manassas to get your furnace checked out by one of our highly-trained technicians. We will do an in-depth inspection of your unit and be sure it will be in good working order for the coming winter months in Manassas. Annual furnace service can help you get the most out of your furnace’s performance, and may also impact the life of your system. Not to mention that a big percentage of the emergency calls in the winter are attributed to a lack of maintenance.

We want you to enjoy every bit of the season in comfort. If you have any questions for us about getting your home ready for fall or need to arrange your routine furnace service give the pros at Woody's Sudden Service Inc a call at 703-278-2036.
