Furnace Maintenance Services in Palatka, FL.


Maintaining a functioning furnace is crucial to keeping your home warm and cozy during the chillier winters. At Southern Air, we specialize in offering professional furnace maintenance in Palatka, FL. Our team of Florida-certified experts specializes in comprehensive furnace care services designed to optimize performance and energy efficiency and prolong the lifespan of heating systems like yours. Trust us to keep it in top shape all season long!

What Is Furnace Maintenance?

Furnace maintenance is a preventative service designed to examine, clean, and tune your heating system to ensure its efficient and safe performance. Scheduled furnace maintenance identifies potential issues before they become larger problems, thus prolonging both its performance and lifespan and lessening the impact on your wallet.

What Is Included In Furnace Maintenance?

While each furnace maintenance appointment may require different repairs and care, below are preventative tasks we will perform during each service.

  • Thorough Inspection: Our HVAC technicians will conduct a complete examination of your furnace to identify any signs of wear or damage as well as malfunction.
  • Cleaning: We will professionally clean every component of your furnace, such as its burners, heat exchanger, blower motor, and air filters to remove dirt, dust, and debris that accumulates over time and improve its overall efficiency and airflow.
  • Lubrication: Moving parts in your furnace require proper lubrication in order to reduce friction and wear, and we provide this service to ensure an uninterrupted and efficient process.
  • Safety Checks: Our number one priority is your safety. Our technicians will conduct safety inspections of your furnace, such as checking its gas lines for leaks or testing for carbon monoxide leaks before verifying its functionality and safety controls.
  • System Calibration: Our technicians will calibrate your furnace’s controls and thermostat for accurate temperature readings and optimal energy efficiency.

When To Schedule Furnace Maintenance?

Maintaining your furnace at least annually is strongly advised, ideally before the heating season starts. Fall is an ideal time for this service as this ensures your system will run smoothly before winter hits. However, it is never too late to begin taking care of your heating system. Contact us at Southern Air to set up your maintenance appointment!

Benefits Of Furnace Maintenance

Regular furnace maintenance offers several benefits for homeowners, including:

  • Increased Efficiency: Furnace maintenance increases energy efficiency, leading to potential cost savings on your energy bills.
  • Increased Lifespan: Regular maintenance helps extend the life of your furnace, reducing early replacement needs and saving money over time.
  • Improved Comfort: With regular furnace maintenance and servicing, your home should remain comfortable during colder months.
  • Increased Safety: Regular furnace maintenance should include safety checks to ensure it operates safely, lowering the risk of carbon monoxide leaks or other hazards.
