Furnace problems can be a real challenge that can lead to you facing expensive repairs or leaving your commercial property without heat on a cold day. But the good news is that most commercial furnace problems can be prevented with regular maintenance.
Regular maintenance of your furnace offers many cost saving benefits for commercial property owners. It makes your furnace more efficient to run throughout the winter season so that you pay less in heating costs. It also helps you avoid repairs and will make your furnace last for longer, meaning you pay for repairs less often.
The following maintenance steps are fast and low cost as well, but offer a highly effective way to make your HVAC system last longer:
Air filters in commercial furnaces should be changed, at minimum, every month. If a commercial property generally has more than an average amount of dirt in the environment, you may need to change your air filter more frequently. The air filter pulls particles from the air that circulates through your furnace. As the filter fills up, the unit will have to work harder to push the same amount of air through, causing more stress on the system.
A bit of humidity in the air will help temperatures stay more constant and will be more comfortable. If your business place tends to get dry in the winters, you can install a humidifier as part of your HVAC system to increase the moisture in the air.
With the correct configuration, your vents can efficiently blow warm air into a space of almost any size. But if an object is blocking vents, it interrupts the ability of air to circulate and the furnace has to work harder. Make sure that no part of your storage or business operations in your commercial property blocks a vent to avoid creating extra work for the furnace.
The quality of your insulation and the tightness of seals around your property will impact how much warm air can escape. By keeping windows and doors as tightly sealed as possible and adding insulation wherever possible, it will be easy to manage heat in a commercial property and you will not have to run your furnace as frequently to keep the environment comfortable.
While it’s important not to compromise on quality, make sure that the pricing is reasonable and transparent with no hidden charges.
During annual visits, the heating service technician will check your furnace to make minor adjustments and plan for larger repairs in order to optimize the functionality.
