As winter swiftly approaches Boulder, ensuring your home's heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system is in prime condition becomes crucial. The cold months can put significant stress on our heating systems, making proactive maintenance vital for comfort and safety. Homeowners in Boulder can benefit from expert tips and insights gathered from both industry experts and customer experiences with Fix-it 24/7 Plumbing, Heating, Air & Electric.

The Importance of Regular HVAC Maintenance

Regular maintenance is the cornerstone of a reliable HVAC system, especially during the harsh Boulder winters. Scheduling a professional inspection can help detect potential issues before they escalate into costly repairs. Debra T. shared her experience with Fix-it 24/7, expressing satisfaction with how their technician, Ronald, installed a new furnace and thermostat all in one day, ensuring her home stayed warm throughout the cold months[1].

Key Maintenance Tips for Winter

  1. Replace Air Filters Regularly: Dirty or clogged filters in your HVAC system can hinder airflow and reduce efficiency. For optimal performance, replace or clean filters monthly during winter.
  2. Check Thermostat Settings: Ensure your thermostat is functioning correctly, preferably a programmable one, to manage energy use efficiently while maintaining comfort.
  3. Inspect Furnace and Heat Pump: Ensure these units are in good condition with no obstructions around them. A clean heat pump and furnace operate more efficiently and are less prone to breakdowns.
  4. Clear Vents and Registers: Keep these free of obstructions to allow for proper airflow throughout your home.

  • Setting your thermostat lower while you're asleep or away from home.
