Gas Furnace Due for Its Fall Check in Fort Smith, AR (Furnace Tune-Up)

A Fort Smith homeowner saw our furnace tune-up offer and booked a visit online to get the gas furnace checked before winter.

What Our Technician Found

Our technician opened up the furnace and checked the burners, the gas valve (the part that lets gas flow to the burners) and the safety controls. He pulled the flame sensor (a thin metal rod that tells the furnace the burners actually lit) to check it, and tested the electrical parts with a meter.

What Homeowners Can Learn From This Job

  • A dirty flame sensor can shut the furnace off. The burners light, then go out a few seconds later.
  • Fall is the time for a tune-up. It is easier to fix problems before the first cold night.
  • Listen to your furnace. New noises or short runs are worth a call.
