Is a Heating and Furnace Inspection Necessary?: Maybe It Will Fix Itself
The majority of us are familiar with Murphy’s Law. If you are not yet familiar with this dreaded certainty, Murphy’s Law states: “Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.” Most of us would more accurately align with the longer form of Murphy’s adage that says, “Anything that can go wrong will go wrong and at the worst possible time.” You are probably wondering “what in the world does this have to do with my HVAC system?” Everything. That’s why I pitched Murphy’s Law before starting with heating and furnace inspection.
In the DFW metroplex, we experience very mild winters with scattered cold snaps that last one or two days. This sets up a scenario where you rarely use or even notice your heating system’s performance until one of these cold fronts arrives. It will take the entire first day of the frigid weather to affect your home’s temperature to the extent you notice “something is up” at which point you’ll put on some extra sweat and “keep an eye on it.”
The second day of lower temperatures is usually spent checking in on the thermostat and thinking that it was probably just a fluke and it will likely fix itself. You’ll try to convince yourself by saying, “it can’t be broken, it’s only dropped two degrees here,” or “it feels like it’s on…”. I know, I know; I am well aware that the LAST thing you have time for is a broken furnace.
By day three, temps are back on the rise and as a result, so is your home’s comfort! This allows us to press ahead in our endlessly hectic lives…until Ol’ Murphy comes knocking…
Heating System Inspection — Keep it ready before the Thanksgiving
Rest assured it will be the night before the in-laws’ arrival for Thanksgiving or the Saturday of the Christmas party you are hosting when the next polar vortex sets in or North Easter sweeps our fair berg. Fortunately for you, Classic Heating and Air are ALWAYS on-call and willing to help you but far too often parts distributors are closed and our on-call technicians end up overbooked.
Having spent my last 26 years in and around this industry in DFW, I have seen it play out year after year. Regular work days are moderately busy with tune-ups and preventative maintenance with a few breakdowns sprinkled in here and there and a weekend or holiday commences and the phone lines flood with cries for help. Avoid any trouble with your HVAC and get a heating and furnace inspection.
It’s always a great idea to get a heating system inspection and other services from a professional. Not to mention all the calls from individuals whose “usual” HVAC service provider is not equipped nor mindful enough to have a procedure for handling after-hours calls!
Our goal at Classic Heating and Air is to go the “extra two miles” in our efforts to serve you in your time of need, but in these instances, our resources only stretch so far. Give your family and home the attention they deserve and CALL CLASSIC at the FIRST sign of heating woes and we’ll be there to help!
