Heating Maintenance & Annual Tune-Ups
Heating maintenance is about two things: reliability and safety. A fall tune-up catches the weak igniter and the drifting gas pressure before the first freeze, and it verifies that everything venting combustion gases out of your home is doing its job.
Our heating tune-up is a documented multi-point inspection performed by a licensed technician, with combustion analysis and carbon monoxide testing included on every gas appliance we service.

What to Watch For
Signs Your Heating System Needs Service
Do not wait for a no-heat call if you are seeing any of these.
It has been more than a year
Annual service is required by most manufacturers to keep parts warranties in force.
Slow or noisy startup
Delayed ignition and inducer noise both signal wear that is cheap to correct now.
Uneven heat room to room
Airflow, balancing, and zoning issues are best corrected during a scheduled visit.
Dusty or dry air
Filtration and humidification issues that are simple to address alongside the tune-up.
Higher gas bills than last winter
Combustion drift and dirty burners quietly cost you money all season.
An older CO detector
We test combustion and check your detectors as part of every heating visit.
How It Works
What Our Heating Tune-Up Includes
- 1
Combustion and safety testing
Gas pressure, draft, flue integrity, heat exchanger inspection, and carbon monoxide readings — the checks that keep the system safe, not just running.
- 2
Component service
Burners cleaned, flame sensor polished, igniter and inducer tested, limits and controls verified, and electrical connections tightened.
- 3
Airflow or hydronic checks
Filter, blower, and static pressure on forced air; circulators, pressure, and zone operation on boilers and radiant systems.
- 4
Written report
You get the measured readings and any recommendations in writing, with no pressure to buy anything on the visit.
Pricing
What Affects the Cost
Heating tune-up pricing is published up front and depends mostly on how much equipment you have.
System type
Furnaces, boilers, and heat pumps each require a different scope of work.
Number of units
Additional systems are discounted when serviced on the same visit.
Maintenance plan membership
Members pay a lower per-visit rate and get priority scheduling and repair discounts.
Add-on cleaning
Heavy burner or blower cleaning on a neglected system is quoted separately.
Access
Attic and crawlspace equipment takes longer to service safely.
