Heating inefficiency? What is it and why should you be concerned about it? 

Heating inefficiency occurs when your heating in Salmon Arm isn’t performing fully. This can lead to higher energy bills, which is the most obvious sign that it’s running inefficiently. When the unit is working erratically, it can lead to inconsistent usage of energy, which can then lead to a higher energy consumption.

You would also want to watch out for the following signs of heating inefficiency:

1.Uneven heating

Do some rooms feel colder than others? Are some areas of your home warmer? Do you often struggle to find the perfect balance of temperature in all rooms? This could mean that your heating in Salmon Arm isn’t working to its full potential. This can be caused by a myriad of reasons such as accumulated dust in the air filters and ducts. The older your heating system, the more likely it is to experience this problem as well.

2.You hear it cycling on and off.

Do you notice that your furnace is turning on and off all the time? This is normal, but when it happens so frequently, it means that the unit is not producing the temperature expected of it. Again, this can be caused by dirty filters, or you might need to have your thermostat checked.

3.Strange noises are coming from the unit.

Another indication that your heating system is not working properly is when it is producing unusual sounds. Rattling, banging or whistling noises should be investigated for mechanical issues.

4.There is poor indoor air quality.

Do you often struggle with asthma, colds, sneezing, and coughing? These are signs that your heating in Salmon Arm is riddled with dust. When was the last time you had it maintained? When did you last clean the filters? If it has been a while, your air quality at home is most definitely poor.

5.Your heating system is old.

Is your house old? Has your heating system been there since the house was constructed? Heating systems that are more than 10 years old may already be showing signs of inefficiency. They could be candidates for replacement already.

What should you do?

Get the help of technicians from Copperline Mechanical LTD to find out if your system is inefficient and to determine the cause of inefficiency. Schedule regular maintenance as well. You would want to have your heating system maintained by a professional heating technician once a year to ensure the efficiency of your unit.

Keeping the filter clean is also important. Clean the filters every other month or once every 3 months depending on how dirty the environment is. This will ensure that your heating system will run efficiently all the time.
