As the weather starts to cool off, each of us walks past the thermostat thinking it may be time to switch the dial over to ‘heat.’ But before you kick off your furnace and humidifier use for the season, be sure to check out these useful tips and reminders from the home comfort professionals at Wyckoff’s.
- Remember to open the bi-pass damper — usually located on the ductwork around your furnace and humidifier.
- Make sure your water line is open — usually a toggle lever located on the waterline going to the humidifier
- Don’t forget to clear the area around your furnace, humidifier, and the surrounding ductwork. Clean out any dust, spider webs, or condensation you find.
- And, of course, change your humidifier’s media filter.
These are just a few ideas to help keep your furnace and humidifier in tip-top condition for the colder weather ahead. If you’d like help with any of this contact Wyckoff’s now to arrange a service visit.
