Before the first cold front
Furnace Maintenance
A furnace that sat idle since spring gets one real check before it has to work. We run the same four-part process on every visit, published on our own site, not improvised on the day.
One visit, before the system has to prove itself
Nine months of a Houston summer is nine months a furnace does nothing. Dust settles in, mechanical parts sit still long enough to stiffen, and none of it announces itself until the first Blue Norther asks the system to run for real. A pre-winter tune-up catches that gap while it is still cheap to fix, rather than after the furnace has already failed on a cold night. Equipment stays under its manufacturer warranty when the maintenance schedule is kept, which is reason enough on its own to book the visit annually rather than skip a year.

Published maintenance process
The same four steps, every visit
Burner assembly cleaning
A clean flame is an efficient flame, so the burner assembly is cleaned before anything else is checked.
Heat exchanger inspection
Checked for corrosion and structural weakness, since this is the part that matters most if it fails.
Safety control testing
Limit switches and sensors are tested, not just glanced at, so the furnace shuts itself down correctly if something ever goes wrong.
Airflow optimisation
Air handlers and duct connections get checked for restricted airflow, which is often the real reason one room never gets warm.
New customers
$89 one-time tune-up
A single flat rate for a first visit, covering the same four-part process we run for every customer, and one more reason to get the furnace checked before it has to carry the whole winter on its own.
If the furnace is already showing a problem rather than waiting to be checked, that's furnace repair, not maintenance, and the sooner we look the fewer parts it usually costs. The same seasonal discipline runs on the cooling side too, in AC maintenance, so the whole system gets checked twice a year instead of once.
