Outdoor Gas Heating Unit Ready for Winter in Fort Smith, AR (Furnace Tune-Up)

A Fort Smith homeowner wanted the heating system tuned up before cold weather. This home has a package unit, where the gas furnace and the air conditioner sit together in one cabinet outside.

What Our Technician Found

Our technician opened up the unit and went through the heating side. He checked the burners, the gas valve (the part that lets gas flow to the burners), the ignition parts and the flame sensor (a thin metal rod that tells the unit the burners lit). He also checked the safety controls and the air filter.

What Homeowners Can Learn From This Job

  • Package units heat too. If yours has gas burners, it needs a heating tune-up as well as AC care.
  • Outdoor units collect debris. Leaves and spider webs find their way inside the cabinet.
  • Know where your filter is. On many package units it is inside the house at a return grille.
