Dominion Energy has winter prep tips for your home
Posted

Fall is the perfect time to get your furnace inspected by a certified heating contractor to help ensure it is operating safely and efficiently.

Here are some best practices from Dominion Energy for when cooler weather rolls around.

  • Check your furnace filter regularly and replace it if necessary.
  • Give your furnace some space. Your furnace performs best when it has room to breathe.
  • Don’t store any flammable materials near your furnace.
  • Install a smart thermostat. This will help out your furnace and your wallet.
  • Move furniture, drapes and anything else obstructing air ducts b and cold-air returns. Blocked vents mean poor air flow and excess stress on your furnace.
