Schedule Your Heating System Tune Up Before Fall

Don’t wait for heating season to arrive! It’s time to schedule annual maintenance on your home’s heating equipment. Why wait till the fall when life gets busy to make your appointment? These quieter summer months are the perfect time to get one of our experienced technicians out to your home for a quick and convenient tune up.

It comes as no surprise that people often feel they can skip out on their annual maintenance, or some common misconceptions have led them to believe they don’t need one. We’ve put together a list of the top reasons we hear for why customers skip servicing their equipment.

• "I got a tune up before last heating season."

  Does your heating system come with a warranty? Did you know most warranties specify that annual professional maintenance needs to be performed on your heating system for the warranty to remain in effect? No tune up this year may mean no coverage down the road.

• "My heating system worked fine last year."

  While we love it when your heating system runs smoothly, why risk the possibility of it having an issue this year? An annual maintenance tune up keeps your heating system running not only efficiently, but safely.

• "I changed the air filters, so everything will be fine."

  Yes, changing your air filters frequently is a great way to keep your heating system running properly. However, a furnace or boiler has a lot of moving inner parts and pieces which need professional attention and service, especially after a long winter of wear and tear.

• "I dont want to spend the money."

  Money is a concern for many of us, we fully understand. But blowing off maintenance now to save a little could end up costing you down the road. Regular professional maintenance helps your furnace or boiler run efficiently, meaning you save on energy costs month-to-month too. It also lets our service technicians spot and fix small problems before they turn into big ones. Plus, if you sign up for Rural Fuels service plan, your annual tune up is included!

• "If something breaks, I'll get a guy to fix it."

  If you skip your tune up and your heating system breaks down, you risk increasing your wait time for a full repair, but with Rural’s service plan, you get 24/7 emergency service, priority scheduling and many parts and labor costs already covered.
