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!

Southern Air is phenomenal! They installed a brand new AC unit and a new air handler for us- they were prompt, efficient, and thorough. The techs disposed of our old equipment, and left our home in pristine condition. When we had an issue related to a power outage once, and they sent a tech out to us within 30 minutes of our call. They offer 10 year warranty options and an annual program, where they will perform all maintenance, even filter changes. I could not be happier with their services, and I enjoy never having to think about the AC! They are the best in Putnam county.
Updated to add:
I continue to be impressed by Southern Air. Our air conditioner went out late in the evening. Someone from this company answered the phone at 9:00 pm and arranged service for us first thing in the morning. Trenton was friendly and knowledgeable. He arrived promptly as scheduled and diagnosed the issue. I appreciate that they texted a photo of the technician and his name, so I knew who to expect, for safety. Everything was covered under the maintenance plan and warranty, and they even loaned us a temporary air conditioning unit while we wait over the weekend for the parts and repair. I am very grateful. The people running this company are wonderful people that truly care.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a positive review - it’s greatly appreciated!
