A furnace inspection is one of the most important items on any Spokane homeowner’s fall checklist. It keeps your heat running safely and efficiently through winter and catches small problems before they leave you cold. Here’s what a thorough inspection covers.
Why Furnace Inspections Matter
Beyond comfort and efficiency, inspections are a safety issue. Furnaces can develop carbon monoxide leaks, gas leaks, and electrical faults, and an inspection is how those hazards get caught before they become dangerous.
What Gets Checked
The heat exchanger
Inspected for cracks, which can leak carbon monoxide. This alone makes an inspection worth it.
Burners and flame sensor
Cleaned and checked so the furnace lights reliably and burns properly.
The blower and motor
Tested for proper operation and airflow.
Gas connections and venting
Checked for leaks and proper exhaust.
Thermostat and electrical
Verified for accurate, safe operation.
The air filter
Replaced or flagged, since it affects the whole system.
When to Schedule It
Once a year, in fall before you rely on the furnace daily. An older system is worth inspecting without fail.
