Addressing Tampa's Climate & Your Furnace

While Tampa is known for its heat, those occasional cool snaps require a functional heating system. Furnaces here can face unique issues:

•  Moisture & Corrosion: High humidity levels can lead to moisture buildup, potentially causing rust or corrosion on internal components.
•  Infrequent Use: Systems used primarily for cooling can experience issues when the heating function is activated after a long dormant period.
•  Shared Components: Issues with the blower fan, often shared between AC and heating modes, can affect heating performance.

Our maintenance and repair services are designed to identify and address these specific challenges, ensuring your furnace is ready when you need it.

Frequently Asked Questions About Furnace Service

Q : How often should a furnace be serviced in Tampa?

A : Even in Tampa's climate, annual maintenance is recommended. This ensures the system is clean, safe, and operating correctly, preventing issues that can arise from disuse or humidity.

Q : What is the average cost of furnace service/maintenance?

A : The cost of furnace service or maintenance can vary depending on the age and condition of the system and what specific services are needed. Routine maintenance is typically a fixed cost, while repairs will depend on the issue. Contact us for an estimate or to learn about our maintenance plans.

Q : Is a furnace tune-up worth it in Florida?

A : Absolutely. While heating use is less frequent, a tune-up ensures your system is safe (checking for gas leaks or carbon monoxide risks), operates efficiently when used, prolongs its lifespan, and catches minor issues before they become expensive breakdowns.

Q : What are the signs my furnace needs repair or replacement?

A : Look out for strange noises (grinding, banging), unusual smells (burning, sulfur), uneven heating, a furnace that cycles on and off frequently, difficulty starting, or a sudden increase in energy bills during heating season.

Q : How long do furnaces typically last?

A : With proper maintenance, a furnace can last 15-20 years or even longer. Lack of maintenance, however, can significantly shorten its lifespan, especially in humid environments.

Q : How often should I change my furnace filter?

A : Filter replacement frequency depends on the filter type and household conditions (pets, allergies, etc.). As a general rule, check your filter monthly and replace it every 1-3 months or as needed.
