Living in Fort Worth, TX means that the majority of the time my focus is on air conditioner, but i am consistently cleaning, lubricating, & calling for A/C service, however, this winter time has been an essentially brutal one; Not only are the temperatures colder than I am used to, but the season is lasting longer, at this time of year I was already wearing shorts & t-shirts again.
I had turned off my furnace & got to appreciate the outside air.
Nope, I am still in pants & a jacket. My kids are bundled up anytime they go outside. My heating unit has had a sizable demand placed upon it. It got me thinking that I didn’t prioritize the health of my heater as much as the A/C device. I am right not just praying that my gas furnace can make it through the season. I am guessing I will at most have four weeks left of this cold, but once the chill has left I am calling a Fort Worth, TX heating business. I want to have my gas furnace cleaned up. I want the air filter replaced, the motor belt inspected, & any worn parts replaced. I am not going to take a risk going into the next winter time season on a component that heats as long as mine did. I am grateful everyday that the heater is reliably operating for me. I will not leave it up to chance next year because I want to save a few bucks. It is too important to have quality heating in TX during the winter.
