CMC Plumbing, Heating and Cooling

Your heating system burns fuel. In a well- functioning system, the heat from the combustion process goes into your house while the combustion gasses vent outside. There are several reasons why combustion gasses may end up flowing into the house. If an animal builds its home in your chimney, for example, combustion gasses can back up into your house. Combustion gasses that leak into your house present health and safety hazards. In a worst-case scenario, carbon monoxide poisoning can lead to death.

A well- tuned heating system is more efficient. This is good for the environment and saves you money. A quick adjustment of the fuel mixture in your heating system may make all the difference. Again, this is something only a Detroit Metro Area qualified Heating Technician can assess.

A qualified technician should perform the following checks:

• Safety test for carbon monoxide (CO)
• Check for hazardous debris in the chimney and flue
• Maintain air filters and re-install
• Check operation of thermostat and safety controls
• Check gas pilot safety system and service as required
• Maintain the motor and fan
• Check blower operation
• Check condition, tension and alignment of fan belt and perform required adjustments
• Service burners and set for proper combustion & ignition
• Check gas piping to furnace

The benefit to you is:

•  Regular maintenance can help sure that your furnace runs to manufacturers’ design specifications
• Help reduce your monthly heating bills by ensuring your furnace is operating at peak efficiency
• Help increase the lifespan of your furnace
• Reduce the hassle of unexpected and inconvenient breakdowns
