Let Vito Services in Maryland Help Extend the Life of Your Furnace!
Furnaces are one of the more expensive home comfort appliances. Homeowners understandably want their furnace to last as long as possible. The team at Vito Services is committed to offering the most reliable furnace maintenance services to ensure you get the most out of your home heating solution.
WHY FURNACE MAINTENANCE MATTERS IN ROCKVILLE, MD
In addition to promoting system longevity, furnace maintenance is also the best way to preserve optimal efficiency. The continued efficiency of your system has a direct impact on your energy consumption and utility bills.
Additionally, maintenance visits are an opportunity for our technicians to catch small issues before they escalate into significant problems or even complete system failures.
Your furnace or HVAC system warranty could also potentially be voided if the manufacturer’s recommended professional maintenance schedule isn’t followed. If you’re having a new furnace installed or you’ve recently had one installed, be sure to read up on maintenance requirements to ensure you don’t lose out on the warranty benefits.
FREQUENCY OF FURNACE MAINTENANCE
Ideally, you should schedule professional furnace maintenance service at least once a year. Regularly serviced furnaces are more likely to operate efficiently and reliably. Many homeowners choose to have their furnace serviced in the fall before the heating season begins to ensure it’s in top condition for the colder months. However, if your furnace is older, heavily used or showing signs of potential problems, it may benefit from more frequent checks ups.

FURNACE MAINTENANCE FAQS
How often should I replace my furnace filter?
As a rule of thumb, most homeowners will want to change their furnace filter every three months of use. However, there are a number of variables that may justify more or less frequent replacement. Some of the higher quality filters may need to be replaced less often, especially if no one in your household experiences any breathing issues. If someone in your home has asthma or allergies – or there are pets in your home that shed a lot – you might want to replace your filters monthly. If you’re not sure about filter replacement frequency or the best quality of filter for your furnace, ask for advice from your Vito Services maintenance technician.
Can I do my own furnace maintenance?
While there are small maintenance tasks homeowners can perform – such as changing the air filter and keeping the area around the furnace clean – many maintenance tasks are best left to professionals. Our trained technicians have the tools and knowledge to perform a thorough inspection of your furnace, spotting and addressing potential issues that may not be apparent to the untrained eye.
Professional service also ensures your furnace is not only functioning but is safe to operate. Attempting to perform complex maintenance tasks yourself can lead to inadvertent damage or even safety hazards. Trusting a professional Rockville furnace technician, like those at Vito Services, ensures the job will be done correctly and safely.
What are some signs my furnace needs maintenance?
Some signs your furnace may need maintenance include unusual noises, increased heating bills, frequent cycling, uneven heating, a yellow or flickering flame, constant need for repairs, poor air quality and unusual smells. If you notice any of these signs, it’s best to schedule maintenance service as soon as possible to ensure your furnace continues to operate safely and efficiently.
