Autumn Leaves Are Falling, Be Sure to Maintain your Furnace
/in Articles/by William HammerBenjamin Franklin once said “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” This famous saying, though first spoken hundreds of years ago, absolutely applies to furnace maintenance today. Preventative maintenance, which is a very affordable expense, will save you from costly emergency repairs. Maintaining your furnace each year will keep it running smoothly, which prevents more serious problems. An important part of maintenance is inspection, which will bring to light any potential issues that could lead to future breakdowns, such as worn out parts, loose screws, corroded wires, or refrigerant leaks. If your furnace breaks down completely, it’s possible that it will require a more expensive repair or even replacement. Proper furnace maintenance in Eden will extend the life of your equipment.
Regular Furnace Maintenance in Eden Will Lower Your Energy Bill
An important aspect of furnace maintenance is cleaning. When dirt, dust, and soot build up in your furnace, it lowers the energy efficiency. When your furnace is running less efficiently, it uses more energy and your bill gradually increases. A thorough cleaning of your system will restore efficiency and lower your energy bill.
Improve Air Quality in your Home with Furnace Maintenance
An additional benefit to furnace maintenance is improved air quality. The dust, dirt, and soot that gradually build up in your system and ductwork pollutes the air in your home. Dust is a common allergen which can irritate respiratory issues from allergies to asthma. Soot build-up can cause increased carbon monoxide production, which is dangerous to people and pets. Fall furnace maintenance will help you and your family breathe easier all year.

The Importance of Fall Furnace Maintenance
/in Articles/by William HammerYou may have some questions about furnace maintenance such as:
Why does my furnace need regular maintenance?
A furnace, much like a car, requires periodic service to run smoothly. Furnaces get dirty, parts wear out, lubricants dry up, and electrical wiring corrodes. These are just a few of the reasons your furnace needs regular tune-ups.
How often does my furnace need maintenance?
HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) technicians recommend scheduling a tune-up every year. A long winter of constant running and a summer of sitting dormant takes its toll on your furnace.
What does maintaining my furnace entail?
Typical furnace maintenance includes inspecting, cleaning, lubricating, and replacing the various parts of your furnace. Inspection reveals any worn out parts or areas of concern. Worn out parts will be replaced and any loose parts will be tightened up. Moving parts will be lubricated to prevent future wear. Dirt, dust, and soot that build up in your furnace will be cleaned out. Electrical connections and voltages are checked. Filters are replaced.
When should I schedule an appointment for maintenance?
The best time to schedule furnace maintenance is late summer or early fall. You want your maintenance completed well before the cool weather sets in so that your furnace will be ready as soon as you need it. And in late summer and early fall, technicians are less busy and scheduling is more flexible.
What are the benefits of furnace maintenance?
One of the biggest benefits of furnace maintenance is energy savings. When your furnace is well maintained and running properly, it uses less energy, which saves you money each month throughout the heating season. Another benefit is the peace of mind you will have knowing that your furnace is in good shape and will work reliably to keep you and your family warm through the cold winter days and nights.

Is Your Furnace Ready for Winter?
/in Articles/by William HammerAsk yourself this question and really think about your answer. Preparing your furnace for winter is just as important, if not more so, than the other steps you take to prepare your home for the coming cold weather months.
If you answered: “I’m not sure about my furnace.”
A tune-up may be in order. Yearly furnace maintenance is necessary to keep your furnace running smoothly and efficiently. Preventative maintenance involves inspection, thorough cleaning, and repair of any worn out parts. If you are not currently having maintenance performed each year by one of the most well-established and reputable furnace repair companies in Greensboro NC, you are probably unaware of the true condition of your furnace. Berico will let you know if your furnace is running at only partial efficiency, which wastes energy and money.
If you answered: “Yes, I’m Confident about the Condition of My Furnace.”
Can you really be certain of that fact? It ran well enough last year right? So why wouldn’t it do the same this year? Because as your furnace runs during a cold winter season, dust and soot build up inside of it. Parts wear out and need to be lubricated or replaced. Wires can get loose, screws need tightened, and fins need to be combed straight. You wouldn’t drive your car around, putting thousands of miles on it without any kind of service. Your furnace is a machine as well, with moving parts that wear out after a long winter of constant running and a hot summer sitting dormant.
If you answered: “No, My Furnace is in Need of Repair.”
It’s time to schedule a tune-up at the very least, or perhaps even a furnace replacement. If you are sure your furnace is not ready for winter, contact your heating expert for an evaluation of your furnace’s condition.

Berico announces predictions of lower oil prices in the upcoming months
/in Articles/by William HammerGREENSBORO, NC October 22, 2013 – Despite the uncertainty floating around the energy crisis, the oil market is doing surprisingly well. According to The U.S. Energy Information Administration, oil prices are expected to follow a downward pattern well into 2014. In fact, sources believe that prices will fall by at least $20 per barrel this coming winter. When looking at the price, the EIA looks into projected winter temperatures and demand. The information they’ve found shows that winter temperatures are to be steady with last year’s (2012) temperatures. They’ve also found that the demand for oil should remain the same, if not lower. This is great news for homeowners who rely on oil during the harsh winter months.
Although oil prices were stable for many years, from 1986 to 2001, prices began to rise as soon as the recession hit. A barrel of oil went from an affordable $20 per barrel to an astounding $134 per barrel in just a few short years. Fortunately, the last two years provided a stable price hovering around $80 per barrel. However, thanks to U.S. drilling, the price for oil is expected to be the lowest it’s been in years.
Today, the U.S. has a moderate amount of drilling activity. The job boom that has lasted for several years in North Dakota is just a small light at the end of the tunnel. The oil drilling boom in the U.S. isn’t just good for the economy, it’s also good for homeowners. Although mild drilling is expected into the future, the oil production will remain quite strong here on U.S. soil.
Over the next few months – and even into the coming years – experts predict that oil prices will continue to fall down. In fact, oil prices should realistically fall below $80 per barrel in the coming months. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, this predicted change will happen gradually and continue downwards for years to come.
