What happens when you don’t go to the dentist for years? Even if you don’t have any signs that something’s wrong—at least nothing major—you’ll probably find a lot of issues when you finally go to that appointment. The same is true of furnaces. Maintenance is required to ensure that any problems are caught and addressed right away. Otherwise, you’re facing a potential snowball effect that could end in high replacement costs and even dangerous situations like leaks or fire hazards.
It’s no secret that keeping warm on those bone-chilling Orem, Utah nights is important. However, waiting until an emergency happens (like when your furnace finally conks out for good), might just be putting yourself in a hazardous situation. For urgent situations, Roberts Mechanical offers emergency services, but why take the gamble? Annual maintenance in the autumn and spring are the best way to prevent such a situation. At the very least, make sure to schedule a maintenance check in mid fall before the winter sets in.
You might feel like you know your furnace better than anyone else, especially if it’s been your trusty (and cozy) companion for several years. However, at Roberts Mechanical we specialize in servicing, inspecting and maintaining all types of furnaces no matter how old. You’d be surprised how many of our Utah County neighbors have “vintage charmers” of furnaces that are still in prime working order—as long as they get their regular maintenance, of course. Whether you just bought your state of the art eco-friendly furnace six months ago or your 20-year-old dinosaur is still going strong, you can trust Roberts Mechanical to treat it right.
Trying to inspect or repair a furnace yourself isn’t just ineffective, it can also be dangerous. That’s why Roberts Mechanical only brings technicians on board that are licensed, highly skilled and have the experience necessary to maximize the function of every type of furnace. You might notice if some things seem out of whack, like if your furnace suddenly sounds like a freight train or there’s a strange smell coming from it. Oftentimes, regular maintenance will stop these issues before they bother you—but if not, it’s important to call Roberts Mechanical right away.
An ounce of prevention really is worth a pound of cure. In the case of furnaces, that prevention comes in the form of regularly scheduled maintenance and higher performance. Don’t wait for disaster to strike when you can head it off at the path.
