During these hot summer months, furnace repair is the last thing on a homeowner’s mind. The El Paso heat makes most of us forget the cold of winter. However, you can benefit from scheduling your furnace repair and maintenance more in the summer. Throughout the course of the year, many things can affect your furnace and how it runs. One of the major issues that you can have involve your pilot light and ignition.

Furnace Repair- Ensuring Everything is in Working Order

El Paso does not suffer from major winter weather, but furnaces still get a lot of use during the colder months. As a result, the use of your furnace may not compare to the use your AC gets. However, this leads to many homeowners forgetting that their furnace requires maintenance. It is recommended that furnaces get regular maintenance in order to improve longevity and efficiency. These scheduled check ups do everything from ensuring everything is in working order to catching problems before they become a bigger issue.

Checking Your Ignition and Pilot Light

One of the most dangerous problems to have is a faulty ignition or pilot light. Not only will your furnace fail to heat your home when the cold weather arrives, but it is a potentially dangerous. If your pilot light fails to turn on, you run the risk of life threatening gas leaks. Other problems that can result from this are thermocouple problems, clogs, and more. A faulty pilot light or ignition can be caused by a draft or something more serious.  Catch this and other problems now without having to suffer in the winter without a working furnace.
