This is the time of year to install Carbon Monoxide detectors. Especially if you have a gas furnace

Typically I will get a few calls this time of year due to a smell coming from the furnace. This is due to the dust, rust, and other small particals burning inside the heating unit. If the smell does not go away after a few hours then give me a call.

Heating and Air

• Have an annual a/c  inspection.
• Have an annual Heating inspection
• Change air filter every month or every three months depending on type of air filters
• Keep batteries in thermostat changed. (I hate charging for replacing batteries. It is so simple when the batteries light comes on change your batteries)
• Make sure all breakers and switches are on
• Carbon Monoxide detectors just as important as smoke detectors

Plumbing

• Have an annual Plumbing inspection Now $49 or it is free with a/c Tune Up
• Flush water heater out annually as recommended by all manufactures ($10 with free plumbing inspection)
• Only put extra small amounts of food down disposal! Big stuff in trash

Duct Cleaning 

• Try not to sweep trash and dust into or near the floor registers in the house
• Keep the filter changed
• Seal all duct leaks especially on the return line
• It is recomended to have your duct work cleaned every 5-7 years
