How to Prepare Your Furnace for the Winter

Now that summer’s finally over, it’s time to get your furnace ready for the winter season. There are a few things that homeowners should do to prepare their furnace for the winter. 

The first thing you should do is change the air filter. Not only will a clean air filter be good for your family’s health, but it will also keep your furnace running smoothly and keep dust particles out of your HVAC system. Next, turn on the heat setting on your thermostat. Once the furnace is on, open every air vent in your home. Not only do blocked vents lead to higher energy bills, but they can also cause your furnace to overheat and eventually breakdown. Most importantly, ensure there is a working carbon monoxide detector on every floor of your home. 

Keeping your furnace well maintained will ensure that it runs smoothly and efficiently throughout the winter. Annual furnace maintenance checks should always be completed by a trained professional. Licensed technicians will thoroughly clean your furnace and check for the correct gas pressure and temperature rise. Additionally, they will also check for any cracks in the heat exchanges for carbon monoxide levels coming out of your furnace exhaust. Cracks can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning, which can be dangerous and harmful to your family’s health. HVAC technicians can repair these cracks and ensure your family is comfortable and safe during the winter months. 

It is also advised to cover your central air conditioner during the winter months to protect it from the elements and to keep leaves and debris from accumulating inside the unit. We can provide you with a factory-fitted cover that is designed specifically for your air conditioner. For any help, please do not hesitate to contact a licensed professional at Twintech Heating & Cooling.

by Lousan, Ajax on Twintech Heating and Cooling

From quote, to installation, to follow up, Twintech provided excellent service. I would highly recommended their services.

by John, Pickering on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I had a really great experience with these guys. The salesman Bob was clearly very knowledgeable about everything to do with heating and cooling a home, spent a lot of time with us going over the details of the job, never rushed us and came back after the install to make sure we were happy. The installation crew was excellent, they covered the floors all the way from outside down to the basement furnace room, kept the place clean, got the work done on time and we’re very friendly. I’ve got 15 years in the contracting/ construction industry and these guys are one of the most professional company’s I’ve dealt with. Great company!

by Debra Robertson on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Had great service and clean-up was good. Was happy with my salesman. They were very friendly and helpful. I needed a new furnace as our was over 20 years old. The furnace and air-conditioner work great and they are very quiet. I am very pleased with the service and product I received.

by Private User on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Met with Dave for the sales process and he was great about explaining and going over everything to us. The install happened very quickly and the team were super professional and friendly. We are very happy with this company and their services and we definitely recommend them to others. Thankful my sister recommended them to me!

by Private User on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Reviews for Twintech were good, and they did not disappoint. After an initial visit to discuss the suitable AC unit for replacement, an installation date was available in just a couple of days, and everything was installed without a hitch. Highly recommended

by Private User on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Very pleased with the installation of our new furnace and A/C unit. From quotation stage to the completion of the job Twintech was very professional.
Thank you for a job well done.

by Darren, Pickering on Twintech Heating and Cooling

My old water heater quit on me. I called TwinTech. In less than 4 days, I had my new water heater installed and the old one taken away. The whole process was quick, easy, pleasant, and well done. This is the third time I've dealt with TwinTech and I've been satisfied each time.

by Private User on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I had them replace my furnace last year. When it came time for the air conditioner this year, I did not hesitate to call Twintech again. I will also have them perform regular maintenance on them.

by Robert, Ajax on Twintech Heating and Cooling

We required a new HVAC replacement after running the old
system for 18 years.
Dave understood our requirements and gave us a quote that
covered all the necessary items.
Installation was fast and very tidy. Everything works as
it should. Our thanks to Greg, Mitch and others for their
excellent work. Recommend this family owned business to
anyone else, considering HVAC or other work.

by John Armstrong, Pickering on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I needed a new furnace and A/C to replace my 21 yr. old units, and went to the internet to view potential companies in May, I received 3 quotes,
and chose Twintech based on their salesman Dave who was very detailed and covered off everything on what Twintech was all about,
an extremely dedicated company with so many years of experience, and after reading the on line reviews I was sold on Twintech, who did not disappoint as the installation team were top notch with Greg leading,
I would highly recommend this company without any doubts, in my books they are first class all the way. Our new Amana furnace and A/C are working perfectly !
