Expert Heating Maintenance Services in Connecticut

In Connecticut, with its cold winters and substantial use of heating systems to keep homes and commercial buildings warm, preventative heater maintenance should ideally be carried out annually. The best time to schedule Connecticut preventative heater maintenance services is during the early fall, ahead of the heavy usage period. This annual check-up can allow our technicians to spot any potential issues and resolve them before they escalate into major complications. 

If your heating system is older or is in constant use, you might want to consider having it inspected more frequently. Systems that are over a decade old, or those that operate throughout the year due to being part of a combined heating and cooling system, might benefit from biannual maintenance visits. This can help in identifying wear and tear issues at an early stage, ensuring your system continues to operate efficiently.

Not sure how often your heater needs maintenance? We can assess its age and performance and advise how frequently you should schedule professional inspections.   Check out our blog articles on the importance of an annual tune up and the benefits of a service plan for your oil burner to learn more.

Urgent Heating System Repairs: Recognize the Warning Signs

Keeping on top of routine maintenance will help you avoid many common heating system issues or catch problems before they escalate. Regular maintenance is a preventative measure, but it does not eliminate the need for timely interventions if problems do arise.

There are certain signs that your heating system might require immediate professional attention, even if regular maintenance is being conducted, so do not wait to call Levco if you notice:

• Unusual noises. If your heating system is making strange or unusually loud noises, it might indicate an underlying problem. Sounds such as banging, whining, or buzzing could be a sign of a mechanical issue that needs immediate attention.
• Inconsistent heating. Your heating system should distribute heat evenly in your home or building. If you notice cold spots or rooms not heating properly, it may indicate an issue with your heating system's distribution capabilities.
• Unexplained spikes in energy bills. If you notice a sudden increase in your energy bills without any significant change in your heating usage, your heating system might be operating inefficiently. 
• Frequent Cycling. Your heating system should not be turning on and off frequently. This could indicate a major problem that needs to be addressed promptly.
• Poor Air Quality. If you notice an increase in dust, dry air, or respiratory problems among the inhabitants, it may suggest that your heating system is not adequately filtering the air.
