3 Reasons to Clean Your Furnace Every 3 Years

Maintaining a clean furnace is crucial for the longevity and efficiency of your heating system. Here are three compelling reasons to schedule your cleaning every three years (plus check below for the single best way you can avoid these problems!):

1. Dust Accumulation Affects Efficiency Over time, dust and debris build up within your furnace, coating the internal components. This accumulation forces your furnace to work harder, reducing its efficiency. By regularly cleaning your furnace, you ensure it operates smoothly and efficiently, saving on energy costs and preventing unnecessary strain on the system.

2. Prolonging Furnace Lifespan A clean furnace experiences less wear and tear. Dust and dirt can cause blockages in your filters and corrosion on metal components, leading to more frequent breakdowns and costly repairs. Routine cleaning helps to prevent these issues, ensuring that your furnace runs smoothly for many years. Investing in regular maintenance can significantly extend the life of your furnace, protecting your investment.

3. Preventing Fire Hazards Dust and lint are highly flammable. When these materials accumulate in and around your furnace, they can pose a fire risk. Regular cleaning removes this buildup, reducing the chance of a furnace fire.

Regular furnace cleaning is a simple yet vital task to ensure efficiency, longevity, and safety. Schedule a cleaning every three years to keep your heating system in top shape.

The Single Best Action You Should Take To Preserve Your Furnace System

Even before you book your furnace cleaning, you can help mitigate many of the above problems by checking and cleaning or replacing your filters regularly. Your furnace filter should be checked every month, and you should also check and clean your HRV filter and humidifier pad.

This company knows their stuff, provides great customer service and excellent work. I’m totally happy with how the two very friendly annd knowledgeable associates cleaned my furnace, vents, dryer vent and AC coil. I will certainly book my next appointment with them.

The technicians were efficient and very friendly. They explained what they how and what they were doing. The only thing was there was some sort of residue left on the concrete from their truck all the way to our front door that was not there before they arrived. (Dark stains on our driveway, walkway and front steps leading into the house).

- Maureen Miyagishima

I had an excellent experience with Alberta Furnace Cleaning. They promptly arrived on the first working day of the year, despite the cold weather. Their team provided detailed explanations regarding the service performed and offered helpful tips for maintaining my units. I am confident that I will book with them again in the next few years.

The men who did the work were extremely friendly and professional. They were sure to introduce themselves to each of us properly. They explained everything they were doing and even showed us before and after pictures. They were very respectful of our home and used boots covers each time even when going back and forth from outside to in. They cleaned and wiped up their work areas before they left, which was very appreciated. We would hire them again, without hesitation.

Alberta Furnace crews are professional and thorough from appointment to home service. I had my furnace serviced by someone else before and I can say that Alberta Furnace is far better. They protect the corners, walls and floors of the house and leave no marks behind. Their equipments are state-of-the-art. The best in what they do! Price is fair as well.

- Antonio Jr Reyes

A big shout out to Andrew and Aaron from Alberta Furnace Cleaning. My husband and I had recently renovated our home and were noticing a fine dust on everything that I couldn’t keep up with. Andrew and Aaron came in and cleaned the furnace, air conditioning unit and all the duct work. It was shocking to see what the found - construction debris, dog toys, tennis balls etc. They definitely have the equipment to thoroughly clean the mechanical and duct work. Both workers used care in removing vent covers, and cleaned all surfaces, properly replacing the grills when done. They were on time, efficient, polite and respectful of ourselves and our home. I could not be happier.
