Three Scheduling Tips for Having Your Furnace Inspected

When cold weather arrives in Las Vegas, NV, turning on your home's heater and feeling that rush of warmth can make you and your family feel safe and cozy. However, when you hit that switch and something does not sound or smell right, calling in a service that specializes in ductwork and fire cleaning can help you sort out the issue, and several clues could indicate when it is time to schedule an inspection. 

1. When the Heater Smells Strange 
When you turn on your heater and the emanating heat smells bitter, acrid or like smoke, then you may need your ducts and filters replaced. Replacing the filters before you turn on your HVAC unit for the fall is a wise idea, as they can collect pet hair, dust and dirt over the summer months. If you recently replaced your filters but the furnace still smells strange, then you may want to schedule an inspection. 

2. When You Hear Odd Noises
You are likely familiar with how your home's heater sounds as it moves through a cycle. Most units light, turn on, run until the room reaches the set temperature, then shut off. Popping, odd crackling sounds or unusual noises when the system lights or turns off may mean problems with the pilot light or the sensor. If smoke accompanies the sounds, then calling in a smoke cleaning service for an inspection may be a wise choice. 

3. When a Fire Cleaning Company Recommends Service 
Having your heater and ductwork cleaned by a fire restoration and smoke cleanup service twice a year can help prevent problems that may shorten your system's life. Schedule these cleanings when the company recommends them and add a reminder to your fall calendar to arrange an appointment before the cold weather sets in. 
When your Las Vegas, NV, home's furnace malfunctions, it can be a significant cause for worry. calling in a fire cleaning service for inspection and maintenance can give you peace of mind and warm your home and family safely, all winter long.
