Should gas furnaces be serviced?

Should You Get Your Gas Furnace Serviced Every Year?

If you have a gas furnace, you might be wondering how often you should get it serviced. The answer depends on a few factors, but our standard recommendation is that you have your furnace serviced once every year to two years (preferably once a year), and that you have your ducts cleaned every three to five years. Let’s break down why this is the case. 

How Often Should You Service Your Furnace?


There are a few factors that will affect how often you need to service your furnace. These include the age of your furnace, whether or not it was properly maintained, and whether or not it was installed correctly. If any of these apply to your furnace, you may need to have it serviced more frequently than once every year or two. 

Another factor to consider is indoor air quality. If you want a system that runs smoothly and has good indoor air quality, our standard recommendation is that you have your furnace serviced once every year to two years (preferably once a year), and that you have your ducts cleaned every three to five years. That’s the bare minimum required. 

So, how often should you get your gas furnace serviced? The answer depends on a few factors, but our recommendation is that you have it serviced at least once every year to two years, and that you have your ducts cleaned every three to five years. By following this simple maintenance schedule, you can help ensure that your furnace runs smoothly and efficiently for years to come.
