Winter is already well underway, and the year 2016 is here. You almost certainly have the heating system in your home already working to keep your family warm. Butb& did you remember to schedule a visit from a heating and air conditioning professional during fall to inspect and tune-up your heater? This is something you must make part of your annual routine, since it helps keep the householdbs heating system working at its best and for the longest period of time.

If you havenbt scheduled maintenance, donbt skip it for this year!

You should never dismiss maintenance if you missed arranging for it during the fall. Putting it off until next fall isnbt a good idea. Here are some of the reasons why:

• Safety: This is especially important if you have a gas furnace in your home. Gas furnaces have some potential safety risks, but you can almost completely eliminate them thanks to professional maintenance. Technicians will find places, such as cracked heat exchangers and leaks in the gas line, that could create hazards. Youbll have them fixed and the furnace back in the best shape possible.
• Prevent emergency repairs: The last thing you want to happen during winter is to have the heater break down on you during the coldest day of the year. But without routine maintenance, you are at a much higher risk of this occurring, leaving you in the cold until emergency repair technicians and reach you.
• Keep utility bills low: Each year that a furnace goes without maintenance will cause it to decline in efficiency by 5% or more. You already pay a lot to keep your house warm during the winter: you donbt want to pay more than you have to!
