Holiday Safety: Furnace Repair and Maintenance for the Holidays

Published on December 15, 2015
Furnace Repair For the Holidays

The holidays are a time of happiness, celebration, and getting together with friends and family. You’ve prepared the food, wrapped the gifts and decorated your home to give your guests a magical holiday to remember. While you’re making new memories this season, a furnace repair and a few simple tips will ensure you’re making those memories in a safe and comfortable home.

  1. Adjust your thermostat: If you are hosting this holiday, think about turning your thermostat down before your house fills up. A large crowd, warm oven, and perhaps some spiked egg nog can make the room feel stuffy. Preemptively lowering the thermostat can help keep everyone comfortable all through the evening.

    If you’ll be going out-of-town, lower your thermostat to keep energy costs down. Do not turn your system off altogether, though, as this could cause your pipes or appliances to freeze.

  2. Check your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors: With all the holiday lights, decorations, and the fireplace doing its thing, December and January are common times of year for home fires. The U.S. Fire Administration says that December is peak month for home candle fires. To ensure your family’s safety, you should use the test button on your smoke detector every month and the batteries should be changed at least annually to make sure your alarms are working properly.

    The arrival of winter also means the furnace is on and windows are shut. If your furnace needs to be repaired, your system could be emitting carbon monoxide fumes into your home. If your carbon monoxide detector does go off, leave the house immediately and call professionals to check your home’s air quality. And if anyone is feeling woozy or ill, call the fire department and make your way to an area with fresh air.

  3. Schedule a furnace inspection: We all know that along with the excitement of the holidays comes the holiday stress. Whether you are hosting family or traveling for the holidays, a furnace inspection and regular maintenance will give you the invaluable gift of peace of mind. A well maintained furnace runs more efficiently and more safely.

The holidays are the most magical time of the year and with a few simple precautions you can make sure you’re shaping nothing but the best memories. Use our convenient online scheduler today to schedule your furnace repair or maintenance and help ensure a safe holiday season. There’s truly no place like a cozy home for the holidays.
