Why It Matters

Benefits of Regular Heating Maintenance

Annual heating maintenance is the single most effective way to prevent breakdowns, reduce energy costs, and extend the life of your system.

Prevent Breakdowns

Most furnace failures are caused by problems that could have been caught during routine maintenance. A tune-up identifies worn components, loose connections, and developing issues before they leave you without heat on a cold night.

Lower Energy Bills

A well-maintained furnace operates at peak efficiency, using less fuel to produce the same amount of heat. Dirty burners, clogged filters, and misaligned components all force your system to work harder and cost you more.

Extend System Life

The average furnace lasts 15 to 20 years with proper maintenance. Without it, you could be facing a premature replacement costing thousands of dollars. Annual tune-ups help your system reach and exceed its expected lifespan.

Protect Your Safety

Gas furnaces produce combustion byproducts that must be properly vented. A cracked heat exchanger or blocked flue can allow carbon monoxide to enter your living space. Our safety inspection checks for these critical issues.

Maintain Your Warranty

Most furnace manufacturers require proof of annual professional maintenance to keep your warranty valid. Skipping your tune-up could mean paying out of pocket for repairs that would otherwise be covered.

Better Comfort

A properly tuned furnace heats your home more evenly and consistently. You will notice fewer cold spots, faster warm-up times, and more stable temperatures throughout your home.

Gas Furnace Safety Checks

Gas furnaces require special attention to safety. During every heating tune-up, our technicians perform a comprehensive safety inspection that goes beyond basic maintenance. We check your heat exchanger for cracks using visual inspection and combustion analysis, test all safety limit switches, verify proper gas pressure, inspect the flue and venting system for blockages or separation, and measure carbon monoxide levels at the supply registers and in the area around the furnace.

These safety checks are critical because carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless gas that can be deadly. A cracked heat exchanger or blocked vent pipe can allow this gas to enter your living space without any obvious warning signs. Our technicians take these checks seriously and will never overlook a potential safety issue.

Timing and Frequency

When and How Often to Schedule Heating Maintenance

The ideal time to schedule your heating tune-up in Southern Utah is during the fall, typically in September or October, before the cold weather arrives. This timing ensures your system is clean, calibrated, and ready to perform when you need it most. It also gives us time to identify and address any issues before they become urgent during a cold snap.

In the St. George area, many homeowners focus heavily on their air conditioning systems because summers are long and demanding. That is understandable, but it means furnaces often sit idle for six months or more without any attention. During that downtime, dust accumulates on burners and components, lubricant dries out, and small issues that were developing at the end of the previous winter can worsen. A fall tune-up addresses all of these concerns.

We recommend annual professional maintenance for all heating systems. If you have a heat pump that provides both heating and cooling, it should be serviced twice a year, once before the heating season and once before the cooling season, because it operates year-round. Gas furnaces and electric furnaces should be serviced at least once per year.

Between professional tune-ups, there are a few things you can do to keep your heating system running smoothly. Change your air filter every 30 to 60 days during the heating season, especially in Southern Utah where our fine desert dust clogs filters faster than average. Keep the area around your furnace clear of storage, and make sure supply and return vents throughout your home are unobstructed by furniture or curtains.

If you have not had your heating system serviced in more than a year, do not wait for a problem to develop. Preventative maintenance is always less expensive than emergency repairs, and it gives you peace of mind knowing that your system has been professionally inspected and is ready for the winter ahead.

Call (435) 680-2100 today to schedule your heating tune-up. We serve homeowners throughout St. George, Washington, Hurricane, Ivins, Santa Clara, LaVerkin, Cedar City, Springdale, and all of Southern Utah. Our technicians are available Monday through Saturday, and we can usually schedule your appointment within a few days of your call.

Common Questions

Heating Tune-Up FAQ

How often should I schedule a heating tune-up?
We recommend annual professional heating maintenance for all furnaces and heating systems. If you have a heat pump that provides both heating and cooling, it should be serviced twice a year — once before the heating season and once before the cooling season. In the St. George area, where furnaces can sit idle for six or more months during our long summers, an annual fall tune-up is essential to address dust accumulation, dried-out lubricant, and developing issues before winter arrives.
What is included in a heating tune-up?
Our comprehensive heating tune-up includes a 15-point inspection and service covering all critical components. This includes inspecting and cleaning the burner assembly, checking gas pressure, testing the ignition system and safety controls, inspecting the heat exchanger for cracks, replacing the air filter, lubricating the blower motor, calibrating the thermostat, testing carbon monoxide levels, and much more. You receive a written report of our findings and recommendations after every service.
When is the best time to schedule a heating tune-up in St. George?
The ideal time is in the fall, typically September or October, before the cold weather sets in. This timing ensures your system is clean, calibrated, and ready to perform when nighttime temperatures in Southern Utah start dropping into the 20s and 30s. Scheduling early also gives us time to address any issues we find before they become urgent during a cold snap. We can usually schedule your appointment within a few days of your call.
Will a tune-up help lower my heating bills?
Yes, a properly maintained furnace operates at peak efficiency, which directly translates to lower energy consumption and reduced utility bills. Dirty burners, clogged filters, and misaligned components all force your system to work harder and burn more fuel to produce the same amount of heat. Many St. George homeowners notice a measurable reduction in their heating costs after a professional tune-up, especially if their system has not been serviced in over a year.
Why is a heating tune-up important for safety?
Gas furnaces produce combustion byproducts including carbon monoxide, an odorless and colorless gas that can be deadly. A cracked heat exchanger or blocked flue pipe can allow carbon monoxide to enter your living space without any obvious warning signs. During every heating tune-up, our technicians perform a thorough safety inspection including heat exchanger examination, flue and venting checks, and carbon monoxide level testing to ensure your family is protected.
