Even though the heating season has started in Massachusetts, it's not too late to make an appointment for a heating tune up. In fact, it's a good idea – your system will run better and last longer if you do so. Once the heating season starts, our schedule does get a bit busier so don't delay--you should schedule a tune-up to ensure your family's safety and your heating system's efficiency. All furnaces produce carbon monoxide, an odorless but deadly gas. However, a clean, efficiently burning furnace with proper venting produces less and it escapes to the outdoor environment. Dust, dirt, and corrosion can build-up causing improper burning, leading to inefficiency and safety hazards. In addition to dusting and cleaning your system, [Rodenhiser](http://www.rodenhiser.com/) inspects the vents to be sure they are drafting properly. [Rodenhiser](http://www.rodenhiser.com/) will check all the electric, gas or oil connections to see that they are tight; test the motors; check your thermostat and system start-up; lubricate moving parts if necessary, and visually inspect the burner and heat exchanger. Dirty burners or a cracked heat exchanger are not only inefficient, but can be a safety hazard. Get the peace of mind that comes with knowing your system is operating safely and as efficiently as it should. [Rodenhiser](http://www.rodenhiser.com/) always recommends that everyone have a heating tune up once a year. It can increase the efficiency of your furnace by a significant percentage and will be well worth it--lowering utility bills, extending the life of your equipment, improving reliability and giving you peace of mind. Whether your furnace is old or new, a heating tune up is important. Let us know if you have any questions.
