Does a Furnace Really Need Annual Maintenance?

Does a Furnace Really Need Annual Maintenance

It’s a fair question. Between health insurance, car insurance, electricity, water, phone bills, mortgage payments, groceries, gas, and everything else we must buy, is it necessary to have HVAC equipment maintained every year?

Trust us, annual maintenance is extremely important for several reasons:

Maintains your warranty.  Most manufacturers require that annual maintenance is performed on the unit every year by a professional, certified HVAC technician.  By skipping annual maintenance, you may be voiding your warranty.

Catches problems early.  If your system no longer has a manufacturer’s warranty, annual maintenance becomes even more important.  By catching small problems before they turn into serious complications, the repair costs are often cheaper, and you avoid living without heat in the middle of winter until your system is brought back into operation.

Extends the lifespan of the system.  The average lifespan of a well-maintained furnace is 15 years.  Neglect furnaces won’t last much more than 10 years without significant issues and necessary repairs.
