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!

From booking appt, to communication, to our tech Albert, all was great. Our mini split system is large & takes all day for a tuneup, and it was a HOT day. Albert was: professional, experienced, thorough, clean & friendly. He even taught us how to use our remotes, which we never fully understood. He also recommend surge protection, which we never thought of. I was especially pleased that we got an appt right away even though it wasn’t an emergency. The original installer said it would be 6 mos! I like their service agreement too (only 1 tuneup/yr instead of 2) and very reasonable considering mine takes all day.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Heidi, for sharing your feedback and for choosing Southern Air. We’re glad booking and communication were smooth, and that Albert’s professionalism and thorough work made a difference, especially on a long, hot tune-up, including walking you through the remotes and offering smart options like surge protection. If you ever need a seasonal tune-up or want to set up ongoing service through our agreement, please give us a call.
