What’s Involved with a Furnace Inspection
A furnace inspection involves a full evaluation of your system’s safety, efficiency, and performance to ensure everything operates correctly. During an inspection, one of our certified technicians checks the main parts of your heating system to find any buildup, wear, or damage that could slow things down or become a bigger problem later.
We inspect the burners, electrical connections, gas lines, filters, and safety controls. If something looks off, we fix it or explain what needs to be done before it turns into a costly repair.
What’s Included
Every inspection follows a detailed checklist, so nothing gets missed. We service all makes and models, including gas furnaces, common throughout New Jersey.
Here’s what we handle during a standard inspection:
- Clean and test burners and heat exchangers
- Check gas lines and fittings for leaks
- Test ignition and pilot operation
- Measure airflow and temperature output
- Inspect safety controls and wiring connections
- Replace or clean filters
- Check thermostat accuracy and performance
- Lubricate moving parts and check fan belts
Before we leave, we go over what we found and leave you with a simple report. You’ll know exactly how your furnace is performing and what can improve it.
Benefits of Yearly Tune-Ups
A furnace that gets inspected once a year runs better and costs less to operate. Regular tune-ups mean:
- Reliable heat all winter
- Lower energy bills
- Fewer unexpected repairs
- Longer system life
- Safer operation with less risk of gas or carbon monoxide issues
A yearly heating inspection also gives you peace of mind before another cold New Jersey season.
When Should You Schedule an Inspection
The best time for a furnace inspection is in the early fall, before you need to rely on your heat every day. That way, any repairs or adjustments can be handled early.
You should also schedule an inspection if you notice:
- Uneven heat or weak airflow
- Unusual noises or a burning smell
- The furnace turning on and off more often
- Higher utility bills without an obvious reason
Even if your system seems fine, a simple check once a year keeps small problems from becoming bigger ones later.
