Heating Equipment Maintenance Tips
Heat pumps and oil-fired furnaces and boilers need a yearly professional
tune-up. Gas-fired equipment burns cleaner; it should be serviced every other
year.
Step 1
A close inspection will uncover leaks, soot, rust, rot, corroded electrical
contacts and frayed wires. In furnace (forced-air) and boiler (hot-water)
systems, the inspection should also cover the chimney, ductwork or pipes,
dampers or valves, blower or pump, registers or radiators, the fuel line and the
gas meter or oil tank-as well as every part of the furnace or boiler itself.
Step 2 Next, the system should be run through a full heating cycle to ensure that it
has plenty of combustion air and chimney draft. Contractors use smoke pencils to
check for sufficient draft and also test the air for carbon monoxide.
Step 3 Finally, it's time for the down and dirty task of cleaning the burner and heat
exchanger to remove soot and other gunk that can impede smooth operation. For
the burner, efficiency hinges on adjusting the flame to the right size and
color, adjusting the flow of gas or changing the fuel filter in an oil-fired
system. A check of the heat pump should include an inspection of the compressor,
fan, indoor and outdoor coils, and refrigerant lines. Indoor and outdoor coils
should be cleaned, and the refrigerant pressure should be checked. Low pressure
indicates a leak; to locate it, contractors feed tinted refrigerant into the
loop and go over it with an electronic detector. |
