Birmingham Heater Maintenance

Professional Heating Maintenance Services

Since we’re usually more concerned with our AC performance in Alabama than our heaters, it’s really easy to forget that they need maintenance too. You want to be ready for those cooler winter months and not have to worry about whether your heater is going to work properly or not. Plus, the efficiency of your home is greatly affected by your air regulation systems – including ones you may not use very often.

Skelton’s Heating, Cooling & Plumbing encourages you to take advantage of our premier furnace and heater maintenance services to ensure you have peace of mind and warmth in your home. Our team of certified, friendly technicians maintains all types, makes, and models of heating systems. We work to ensure that your heater is ready for the colder weather to come, and we always get the job done right.

What Is a Heating Tune-Up?

Changing the oil in your car keeps the engine running smoothly, and a heating tune-up keeps your furnace doing the same. A tune-up is a maintenance visit from a professional heating technician to prepare your system for the change of seasons. Before it gets hot or cold, you should have an AC tune-up in the spring and the fall for your furnace. During the tune-up, the service technician will make any necessary air conditioning repairs and ensure that your heating system is running correctly before it undergoes the stress of winter.

What Is Included in A Heating Tune-Up?

It’s easier to understand why a furnace tune-up can be so important when you know what exactly is included in a tune-up and what it does for your system.

Comprehensive Checklist

Our technicians have very experienced eyes from servicing so many HVAC systems in the area. During your tune-up, a technician will use this knowledge to check, clean and replace any faulty parts within your system.

There are many moving parts that allow your heater to deliver warm air to your home, and it’s very possible for them to experience wear and tear over time. By catching these worn-out parts early, our technicians will save you a huge headache in the future – and probably avoid a more expensive problem!

Comfort Tuning

During heater maintenance, your technician will also test the function of your heating system. They will make sure that the heat provided is even, consistent and dependable. This way you can rest easy knowing that heat is available whenever you need it.

This is also a great time to express concerns or ask questions about your heating system. Are there hot and cold spots in your home? Does your system make a strange noise or have trouble starting? Are you concerned about the age of your system? Time with a skilled technician can lead you to find solutions to your problems and relieve stress.

The Importance of Regular Furnace Maintenance

Heating tune-ups are a great way to ensure your heater is running efficiently, and they can even extend the life of the system. When you have two regular maintenance visits a year, your furnace is at its best year-round. This is especially important because your furnace blower works all year to help distribute air throughout your home. Additionally, the service technician can spot and repair any problems you don’t know about before they become big enough to cause real issues.

All of this saves you money by preventing costly heater repairs and keeping your energy bills as low as possible. You can even make the entire system last longer by keeping it in tip-top shape throughout its life.

What Are The Benefits of A Heating Tune-Up?

If you’re not worried about the function of your heater, scheduling a tune-up might not be at the top of your to-do list. However, a heating system can often be tuned to perform more efficiently. Moving your system’s output from fine to fantastic has several implications for you as a Birmingham homeowner.

Less Energy, Less Money – If your heater can be tuned to deliver warm air by using less energy, you will absolutely see a decrease in energy consumption and your utility bill.

Quicker Heat – When your heater can do its job easier, you’ll get faster and more accurate temperature control in your home.

Fewer Repairs and Breakdowns – Technicians very often fix or replace a part during heater maintenance that could cause major problems if left unaddressed.

Longer Lifespan – Units that have regular maintenance are proven to last much longer than those that don’t. It’s just good for their health.

What Our Customers Are Saying

We had a great experience with Skelton’s!

We had a great experience with Skelton’s! Our dog damaged the wiring on our A/C condenser, and it stopped working while the highs were still in the 80’s. Skelton’s came out the next day and got our condenser working again. Would recommend them and use them again!

Very Professional and Responsive

Skelton’s Heating, Cooling & Plumbing is very professional and responsive. I was able to request service via an online service request form one evening and was called promptly the next morning. I was subsequently able to have service performed within 2 hours. When your AC is not working this is like finding gold! I highly recommend them.
