Gas furnaces
A visit for a gas furnace includes cleaning the burner, testing the ignition and safety controls, and a careful look at the heat exchanger and venting. All of it is technician work, and none of it is left for you.
Fargo Heating arranges maintenance visits for furnaces, boilers and heat pumps in Fargo, Moorhead and the surrounding towns. A tune-up gives a technician the chance to find a weak part before cold weather does, so small faults get dealt with early.
The best moment to call is ahead of the heating season, when there is time to plan around whatever the technician finds. Even in the middle of winter a visit is worthwhile if the equipment has not been seen for a long stretch.

Heating elements, blower and controls are tested, and the electrical connections get a close look.
For a heat pump, the visit includes cleaning and testing the indoor and outdoor units, then going over the refrigerant side and the controls to confirm that every part is doing its share. The same visit can also cover a furnace or boiler in the same home.
A boiler visit covers the burner, controls and safety devices, along with the condition of the boiler itself and the piping close to it, so any weak spot is written up and explained before it becomes a breakdown.
Wear comes from simply running. A tune-up uncovers slow trouble, for instance a burner that fires unevenly or a component beginning to give out, early enough that a repair can be planned rather than forced by a breakdown. That is the main reason a tune-up is worth arranging.
Everything here is technician work, so call whenever something changes between visits.
Should a carbon monoxide alarm ever go off, everyone leaves the house and calls 911 from outside. Calling us comes next.

Which kind of system do you have, and when did someone last service it? Tell us when you call. The call is free and the quote for the visit is free as well. The technician then arranges a time that works for you.
