Cold Weather is Approaching--Tips

With the heating season just around the corner it is wise to have your furnace technician do a regularly scheduled cleaning and inspection. While they are there, have them replace the furnace filter (it's usually recommended to do this twice a year) and perform a CO test. Carbon monoxide is a typical problem on some older forced air furnaces. If you do not have a good CO detector, they are a good investment. You can purchase one of these from your local hardware store. I have my furnace checked and cleaned twice each year, once in late spring and once in late fall. An ounce of prevention is well worth it. If you have a recommendation on a good CO detector let us know about it.
