Chilly weather is upon us here in Racine, WI.

Is your Racine, WI, home or business prepared for the frosty slide into winter? When you switch your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) thermostat to heat, your furnace should be clean, inspected, and ready to operate at peak performance for the next several months.

Preventative maintenance is the only way to prepare your heating system to work safely and efficiently through winter.

At First Call Heating & Cooling, we believe the best time for a tune-up is early fall before you use your furnace daily. Learn why.

When Is It Best to Schedule Furnace Maintenance?

Professional maintenance can be performed on your furnace at any time of the year. It is worth the investment.

But the best time to schedule it is in the fall, right before the weather gets too cold. You want to be sure you can depend on your heating system when you need it.

A fall furnace tune-up lets our First Call Heating & Cooling professionals catch any minor issues and resolve them immediately. You will enjoy optimal comfort and peace of mind knowing your system is running safely and efficiently.

Here’s How a Fall Tune-Up Helps:

  • System Safety
    This is a prime reason to inspect your heating system before putting it into service. During a tune-up, our expert technicians inspect components for wear and damage that might jeopardize your well-being. For example, a cracked heat exchanger in your gas furnace could trigger a deadly carbon monoxide (CO) leak. We inspect the gas line for leaks and ensure safety controls operate correctly. We also check electrical wiring and connections on both furnaces and heat pumps.
  • Catching Problems Early
    Running your heating system when it needs repair or cleaning is risky. Damaged or worn components you could easily swap out now may grow into big, costly problems or even a breakdown in a month or two as your system continues to operate. Fall maintenance ensures all necessary repairs are complete before your furnace begins working 24/7.
  • Better Weather
    Why is this important? We turn off your furnace while cleaning or repairing it. Schedule maintenance now for a more comfortable experience during milder weather, so you won’t be sitting in the cold during our visit!

Maintenance Saves Money

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) points out that you can save up to 30 percent on your energy bill if you maintain and upgrade your heating equipment and insulate and air seal your Racine, WI, home.

“1 company was supposed to out and they never showed. Called this place a tech was out within an hour. Kent was a great tech. Will always do business with this place. Like the name says First call. Let them be your first call”

- Dean G.

“Andrew came out at about 8:30 with the time window being 8:30 to 10. Very happy with that. Took care to ensure he didn't drag any snow or water through the house. Diagnosed and fixed the issue. Checked on another issue, but found it to be only an annoyance I was ok with. Will call again if I have any issues. Fast and efficient service!”

- Joseph P.

“Caleb and Noel did a fantastic job installing our new furnace. They were friendly, respectful, knowledgeable and helped us set up the thermostat on our phones. They were in and out in less than 4 hours. Excellent service and installation.”

- Lori H.

“Had some water under condensation fan. It was a known Bryant furnace issue and Kent knew right away what the issue was. Bryant covers the gasket but not the labor and diagnosis charge which is a bit disheartening since the furnace is only 2 years old. Nevertheless, the service was outstanding as it has always been with your company.”
