ST. LOUIS - Jan. 29, 2020 - PRLog -- The winter months can bring cold weather and push your furnace to its limits. In order to make sure that you're prepared for the change in temperature, follow these tips to help keep your furnace running smoothly:

5 Tips to Keep Your Furnace Running

• Routine Maintenance

Have a reputable service come out to inspect, clean, and fix key components of your furnace before it's too late. Having routine maintenance ensures that small repairs are caught before you're having to replace an entire system prematurely.

• Change the air filters

Changing air filters helps your furnace perform efficiently. When there is dirt or discoloration of the filter, it's time to change. The frequency varies up to once a month or a quarterly basis depending on the amount of air pollution.

• Unblock vents

Closing or blocked air vents does not save energy. The furnace provides the same amount of air in the house whether or not vents are open. This could put extra strain on your furnace and reduce the life of your system.

• Block the drafts

Warm air is leaking out of your home when there are drafts. This is one of the biggest reasons for energy loss. Make sure your windows and doors are sealed in order to get the most out of your furnace.

• Program your furnace

Having a programmable thermostat will help save on the wear and tear of your furnace. Programming the thermostat to an efficient temperature while you're not at home helps save money and energy.
