Napoleon Furnaces: Dependable Comfort, Relying on You
As the air grows colder and a thin layer of frost forms on our windshields each morning, it’s impossible to ignore — heating season is here. For nearly half of the year, we depend on our HVAC systems, especially our furnaces, to keep our homes, families, and belongings safe and warm. These essential appliances provide the comfort we need and ask very little in return, but they do require a little care to perform at their best.
Furnace Filter Maintenance: Keep It Running Smoothly
One of the simplest yet most important maintenance tasks is changing your furnace filter regularly. Ideally, filters should be replaced every 1-3 months. If you have pets or smoke indoors, you may need to replace them more frequently, as dander, smoke, and hair can quickly clog filters, impairing performance and potentially causing damage to the furnace. For those with Napoleon’s MERV-11 furnace filter rack, a filter change at the beginning of the heating season will keep your system running smoothly for up to six months — right through the winter.
Annual Furnace Maintenance: Prevent Issues Before They Arise
While it may be tempting to wait until the first cold snap to turn on your furnace, this can be risky. Often, problems can go unnoticed until it’s too late, leaving you in a chilly situation. That’s why it’s crucial to schedule an annual furnace cleaning and inspection before you need it to heat your home. Ideally, this should be done in mid to late September, but if you haven’t yet, it’s not too late!
Key Furnace Maintenance Actions:
To ensure your furnace is running efficiently, the following tasks will be performed during the annual service:
- Blower fan assembly disassembled, oiled, and cleaned
- Burners inspected for sooting or buildup
- Visual inspection of all components for cracks or corrosion
- Safety systems thoroughly checked and tested
- Sensors cleaned and calibrated
- Filter replaced
- Gas connections leak-tested
- Test-fired and monitored for any abnormal behaviour
