Which Furnace Service Plan Should I Get?

10/20/2017
There can be some inconsistent info about furnace service plans. Do you need one? Is it worth it? What should the plan cover? All Seasons Comfort Systems Inc is here to answer your questions and clear up the confusion.

One of the most confusing things about furnace repair plans is that homeowners often think they don’t need the repair plan because their furnace is under warranty. A warranty and a maintenance service plan are two very different things—and in lots of cases, you will need to have routine furnace service performed to keep your warranty valid. These visits help ensure your furnace is operating as it should and help recognize potential problems before they become bigger, and expensive, problems. A warranty commonly only covers major components of a furnace, and does not cover labor costs, which can add up quickly. It’s wise to review all the details of your warranty so you understand what’s covered and what isn’t.

In addition to making sure your equipment is working properly, routine maintenance provides other benefits that will help you. Properly maintained systems are more prone to operate at peak efficiency, which may save you costs on your energy bills. They also filter your home’s air better, helping to keep you healthier and your home cleaner.

Yet another benefit is that it helps confirm your furnace will operate correctly through its busiest season—aka when temperatures are low. The last thing you want on a brisk Reeds Spring night is to have to call for an emergency repair.
