What We Check During a Heating Tune-Up Appointment

During a heating tune-up, our skilled technicians will:

  • Inspect and clean the burners.
  • Check and replace filters if needed.
  • Test the thermostat for accuracy.
  • Examine and tighten all electrical connections.
  • Lubricate moving parts.
  • Check for gas leaks or carbon monoxide hazards.
  • Ensure the safety controls are working properly.

By thoroughly checking these components, we help prevent potential issues and ensure your heating system is ready to operate safely and efficiently.

Preventative Maintenance Tips

Here are some simple heating maintenance tips for Tennessee residents to keep their systems running smoothly throughout the year:

  1. Change air filters regularly: Dirty filters can reduce efficiency and affect your system’s airflow. Check and replace filters every one to three months during peak heating season.
  2. Keep vents and registers clear: Blocked vents can limit airflow, making your system work harder. Ensure that all vents and registers are unobstructed.
  3. Inspect your thermostat settings: Set your thermostat to an energy-saving temperature when you’re not home. For more control, consider upgrading to a programmable thermostat.
  4. Check carbon monoxide detectors: Ensure your detectors work correctly to keep your home safe, especially if you use gas heating.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I schedule heating maintenance?

We recommend scheduling professional maintenance in the fall to ensure your system is ready to operate reliably in the winter.

How can I set my thermostat to ensure my heater runs efficiently?

Optimizing your thermostat is one way to extend your heating system’s lifespan. You can do this by setting it to a lower temperature when you’re asleep or not home. Even reducing it by 7 to 10°F can make a difference. If you don’t have a smart thermostat with programmable zones, it may be time to install one. The ideal temperature for your heater is 68°F.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Best. Plumbers. Ever. I have used this business for multiple issues in my house, the latest being a whole house replumb. Professional, courteous, clean. Rusty and Joseph were wonderful! Did I mention they showed up on time every day? Definitely went above and beyond. I would give them 10 stars if google would let me.

Sarah C.

Hometown Plumbing has been wonderful! Megan is always very responsive and helpful and Jimmy, Will, Tommy and the rest of the team have always gone above and beyond! They come right out, access the situation, give a quote, and then pretty quickly get to work. They are the most reasonably priced plumbers I've seen. They do a great job and even seed and straw when they're finished! Will definitely use Hometown Plumbing for all future plumbing needs!

Brittany M.

Great service. Awesome professionals. Talks with you and tells you what they’re doing as time goes on. Gets to work and just does it - correctly and efficiently. I will never use another service

PS T.

100% satisfied. My experience with Hometown Plumbing could not have been any better. The staff (both the scheduler and the plumber) were extremely professional, helpful, and polite. My appointment was scheduled in a timely manner. I received a reminder call about 30 minutes before he arrived. The final cost was better than I expected. The work was done perfectly. The job site was cleaned up better than it was when he started. Thanks for doing a great job!

David H.

Plumbers Arrived on time, donned booties and assessed all my plumbing needs. Provided written estimates with various options. Answered all my questions. Worked efficiently and explained to me what they were doing. They were friendly, professional, and left my house clean. I would definitely use this company again, and recommend it to others.

Olga P.

The guys did an excellent job, and worked quite late on the second day, to get everything done. They were extremely knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. I would, without hesitation, recommend Hometown Plumbing for any and all plumbing issues a homeowner may have. Great job!!

John J.

We had 3 sinks and faucets replaced in our bathrooms. The technicians were very professional and timely. Megan, the receptionist was very helpful and kept us abreast of the time the materials were to arrive, the day they would be installed, and the approximate time the tech, William, would arrive. I would highly recommend this company for all of your plumbing needs.

Roberta D.

Called Hometown Plumbing Monday morning about water heater replacement. They came out that afternoon and brought two different water heaters for me to look at. William explained both of them very well. They were very clean, nice, punctual, cleaned up after themselves, and gave me a great price on both the water heater and labor. I would recommend them to all of my friends and neighbors.

Carol T.

As a small business owner, I am extremely pleased with the work performed by Hometown Plumbing that answered my panicked call! Not only were we met with ease and professionalism from Megan,but Jimmy and his team were so helpful in finding a solution that would best fit our needs at the business. Reasonably priced and explains their thought process. Highly recommend working with this team and will be calling again when in need!
