Getting your furnace serviced in September is a smart move for so many reasons! With the current weather, strategic timing, and the winter season just around the corner, it’s all about keeping you safe and cozy. Our friendly team at Springboro Heating & Cooling is here to make sure you’re all set for fall and ready to tackle the winter ahead!
Keep in mind that neglecting a safety and tune-up check could lead to potential furnace issues popping up just when you need it the most. So, let’s chat about four great reasons why we think a September furnace tune-up is such a fantastic idea!
Why Book Your Fall Furnace Tune-up In September?
Reason Number One: The Weather
You might be wondering, “Why September?” Well, let’s take a closer look at why this month is perfect for scheduling your furnace tune-up! It’s a good idea to have your furnace inspected and tuned up before you fire it up for the season, which usually means right before summer wraps up or fall begins. And just a heads up, this year in 2024, fall officially starts on September 22nd! So, you’ll want to get this particular HVAC service scheduled soon.
It’s also wise to note that when you get your furnace serviced, it will need to be temporarily turned off to ensure our technicians can perform a safe and thorough inspection. With the current weather conditions, booking this HVAC service this month is a great idea!
Reason Number Two: The Timing
Throughout the year, the HVAC industry sees a strong demand for repairs, replacements, and upgrades. However, as the fall season rolls in and air conditioning needs decrease, September becomes a bit calmer—making it a perfect time for you! This means you’re more likely to snag an appointment quickly and at a time that works for you. So, why wait for the last-minute rush? Go ahead and schedule your tune-up and safety check now!
Reason Number Three: The Wintertime
Seasons follow a predictable cycle, and now is the perfect time to get ready for the upcoming winter! We always suggest booking your annual furnace tune-up and safety check early in the fall if you can. This little bit of foresight ensures your heating system is ready for Ohio’s chilly winter weather just around the corner. After all, the last thing you want is for your furnace to break down in the dead of winter, especially when a simple fall tune-up could have helped avoid that!
Reason Number Four: The Safety Perspective
Did you know that winter often brings a spike in carbon monoxide poisoning cases? This increase is primarily due to the higher usage of furnaces, chimneys, and gas lines. To keep your home safe, the National Safety Council strongly advises having your furnace, water heater, and other coal-burning appliances serviced annually by a licensed technician.
As such, you don’t want to overlook this important task—it could mean the difference between safety and danger for you and your loved ones. Regular checkups not only ensure your furnace runs efficiently through the coldest months but also allow your technician to spot and fix potential problems before they escalate.
In conclusion, we really encourage you to take the proactive step of scheduling your HVAC system’s fall tune-up in September if you can! But hey, we totally get that life can sometimes get in the way and cause delays. So, if September slips by, don’t worry! You can still book your furnace tune-up in October or early November.
This is just a friendly reminder and also another “bonus reason”: regular yearly furnace maintenance checks are also great for keeping your manufacturer’s warranty valid. If that’s not a good reason to get your tune-up scheduled, we don’t know what is!
