Milwaukee Furnace Cleaning

October 12, 2016 By Quality Heating & Sheet Metal

With ice, snow, and frosty temperatures as the weather forecast for much of the year in Wisconsin, anytime is a good time to ensure your furnace is ready to face another Wisconsin winter with some helpful Milwaukee furnace maintenance tips. The first step in ensuring your furnace is operating efficiently and safely is a thorough furnace cleaning. Cleaning your furnace’s blower, coils, and filter will provide the warm clean air your family deserves and improve your furnace’s efficiency resulting in increased monthly energy savings.

Milwaukee Furnace Cleaning Services

Shutting off the gas and electrical power to your Milwaukee HVAC system is critical before performing any Milwaukee furnace maintenance or furnace cleaning work. Take the following steps to safely turn off the gas and electrical feed to your HVAC system.

  • TURN THE HVAC SYSTEM OFF – Cut the power by tripping the circuit breaker or removing your HVAC unit’s fuse. If you’re unsure which circuit the HVAC system is on, remove the main power fuse or trip the main breakers to shut down power to the entire facility.
  • CUT THE HVAC SYSTEM’S GAS SUPPLY – Your Milwaukee HVAC system should have a gas shutoff valve located inside the furnace. Rotate the valve a quarter turn to the OFF position. If your HVAC system does not have its own gas shutoff valve, you’ll have to cut the gas supply to the entire property by turning off the main gas shutoff valve (usually located near the gas meter). Please note, only a certified Milwaukee heating contractor or other utility professional can safely and successfully restore your property’s gas supply.

If you encounter any problems shutting off your home’s electricity or gas, contact a Milwaukee heating contractor from Quality Heating at 262.786.4450 before performing any furnace maintenance cleaning.

Milwaukee Furnace Repair & Filter Replacement

October 12, 2016 By Quality Heating & Sheet Metal

Milwaukee Furnace Repair and Filter System Maintenance

Cleaning or replacing your furnace filter is a critical furnace repair task vital for ensuring your Milwaukee furnace operates optimally. The majority of today’s furnaces utilize disposable fiber mesh filters, electronic air filters, or reusable filters. The following steps will help you clean your furnace filter based on the filter type your furnace uses.

How to Clean Your Disposable Furnace Filters

  • Disposable furnace filters should be replaced or cleaned in fall and once a month throughout continual winter use.
  • Remove the furnace filter and hold it in front of a light. Replace the filter if it looks clogged regardless of its age or length of service life.

How to Clean Your Reusable Furnace Filters

  • Reusable furnace filters can be rinsed, cleaned, and reused ongoing for numerous seasons. Reusable furnace filters clog less frequently than disposable filters, making your furnace operate more efficiently than throwaway filters, saving you the cost of increased energy bills and multiple throwaway furnace filters.
  • Follow the manufacturer’s instructions when cleaning a reusable furnace filter.

How to Clean Your Electronic Air Filters

Electronic air filtration systems have a pre-screen filter and an electronic cell. While cleaning the pre-screen and electronic cell with warm water is the preferred electronic air filtration system cleaning method, always check the manufacturer’s recommendations before taking the following steps.

  • TURN THE HVAC SYSTEM OFF when replacing or cleaning an electronic air filter.
  • The pre-screen filter, a simple mesh screen with a metal frame, should be removed first and washed often with warm water.
  • Clean the electronic cell with warm water to prevent dust particles from entering your furnace and spreading throughout your home.
  • Let the pre-screen and electronic cell completely air dry before returning to the furnace.

Once your Milwaukee furnace repair and maintenance tasks are complete, reconnect and turn on the electricity to your HVAC system. Turn the gas back on, re-lighting the pilot-light if necessary, and then replace the furnace cover.

Keeping your furnace’s blower, coils, and filter clean are the first steps in preparing your furnace for the Wisconsin winter. You and your family will breathe easier and live more comfortably after performing a quality Milwaukee furnace cleaning. If you need additional assistance with Milwaukee furnace maintenance or face a more complex furnace cleaning project, call our Milwaukee furnace repair experts from Quality Heating at 262.786.4450 or contact the Milwaukee HVAC contractors online.

Milwaukee Furnace Blower Cleaning

October 12, 2016 By Quality Heating & Sheet Metal

Furnace Blower Cleaning

Dirt is your furnace’s worst enemy. Dirt drastically decreases your furnace blower efficiency and your home’s air quality, resulting in costly energy bills and safety risks to your family. The following Milwaukee furnace cleaning steps will keep your furnace operating efficiently and safely all winter long.

Milwaukee Heating and Cooling Maintenance

  • Remove the furnace’s front panel to access the blower compartment. Access to the blower requires unscrewing and removing the fan unit on most furnace systems.
  • Use a small brush to clean the blower motor’s fins.
  • Vacuum the blower motor’s belts, pulleys, and motor housing to reduce heat buildup in the motor for increased furnace efficiency.

Contact the Milwaukee HVAC service providers at Quality Heating today for more information on furnace repair and other HVAC services.
