Here are a few home heating maintenance tips from the pros:

• Change Your Filters Monthly: A dirty filter is one of the most common causes of a heating system breakdown. Dirt can limit airflow, reduce energy efficiency, and cause overheating. Your filters clean your indoor air by filtering dust and other allergens, but if it's clogged, your whole heating system will not operate at maximum efficiency. To ensure that you heating system maintains its proper function, change your filters every month.
• Clean Your Ducts Every Two Years: Over time, dust will accumulate in the air ducts of your home heating system. If you let dust collect in the air ducts, tiny particles will be circulated in the air again, which could cause health problems and performance issues with your heating system. Having your ducts cleaned every two years can improve your unit’s efficiency.
• Hire A Professional For A Thorough Check-Up: Calling a professional to have your unit thoroughly checked and fine-tuned is the best way to increase its lifespan and prevent malfunctions.
