What Is Included in an Antelope Valley Winter Furnace Tune-Up?
Our comprehensive 21-point winter furnace tune-up prepares your system for High Desert freezes. It includes: electronic heat exchanger carbon monoxide testing, gas burner and flame sensor cleaning, gas manifold pressure calibration, draft inducer motor testing, blower motor amperage and capacitor testing, safety limit switch checks, thermostat heat cycle calibration, and air filter inspection. Routine tune-ups prevent up to 85% of winter emergency breakdowns.
Technical Engineering Breakdown
Thermodynamics, mechanical components, and electrical cycle analysis
During a tune-up, our C-20 certified technicians clean the internal components that collect desert dust during summer. We measure gas pressure with a digital manometer to ensure clean combustion and test the safety high-limit switches that prevent house fires.
