It’s crucial to take proper care of your furnace—it provides your Baker City home with the heat you need to stay warm.

Your furnace plays the key role in keeping you warm in your Enterprise home, but even with routine maintenance, it does not last forever. Nobody wants to think about replacing any major household system, but it’s generally more cost effective to be proactive in your thinking about it.

Just about any electrical appliance has the potential to overheat. Furnaces are no exception. As a homeowner, you need to take precautions to lower the risk of an overheated unit. You should also be wary of the associated symptoms, so you know when to take action. Remember, if your system gets too hot, you should keep a cool head and get your furnace taken care of right away.

Is your furnace blowing air without pause? If so, you’re probably feeling a bit concerned. First, your La Grande house most likely feels like an oven. On top of that, your utility bill will be considerably higher with your furnace constantly running. Believe it or not, this is a fairly common problem our professionals at Scott’s Heating and Air Conditioning see frequently, so you don’t need to worry.

If your heating or air conditioning system suddenly stops working in your La Grande home, it’s easy to think the worst. However, sometimes the malfunction is not really caused by your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system at all, but actually from a broken thermostat. 

On a frosty winter’s day here in Oregon, your gas furnace is hard at work, keeping your La Grande home warm and cozy. Feeling grateful? You’re not alone—it’s one of the most popular forms of heating, as American as apple pie.

Understanding some basics about your furnace flue can come in handy. And taking care of it—doing your part as well as through regular professional maintenance—helps keep your furnace working at high efficiency and promotes a long life span.
