Unfortunately, winter is right around the corner, and within a matter of a couple months, we will be turning on our furnaces. However, here at Four Seasons, we think that you should have your furnace checked sooner rather than later, or you could miss out on major savings! End of summer sales are coming to an end, and by the time there is a chill in the air, they may be gone for good!
The Benefit of Time
By having a serviceman out now to inspect your furnace you can detect any major problems that may be lurking inside your unit before you need to turn it on to heat the home. This gives you the benefit of time. You can plan out replacing the system or decide on repairs with a clear mind in a comfortable home. Wait until the first frigid day of winter and you could find yourself unprepared to put forth the necessary funds for replacement or repairs. You may also make a spur of the moment decision that you will regret later just because you want the unit fixed as quickly as possible. (more…)

Take a moment to consider all of the things that could go wrong with the plumbing in your home. Leaks and clogs are probably the most common, but there is one problem that we think everyone would agree is the most annoying and frustrating issue to have with a shower head or faucet in the home. If you didn’t guess already, we are talking about low water pressure. One moment you are doing the dishes or washing the soap out of your hair, and the next you are staring at a trickle of water pathetically spewing from your faucet or shower head.
Not An Easy Fix!
Unfortunately, this is not always an easy fix, and just replacing the hardware isn’t usually enough to increase the flow. So, what are you going to do when you find yourself in this predicament? Well, we think you should call Four Seasons! Our Home Services plumbing experts can investigate and repair a variety of areas that could be affected the water pressure in your home today! (more…)

Does anyone remember the huge rainstorms we had this past summer? For many people those storms are now a distant memory, but for far too many homeowners, there is still recovery in progress. The problem is that hundreds of homes suffered severe flooding, and in the process the HVAC systems were damaged. Replacing these units can become costly, and for many families, the furnace still needs to be swapped out. With winter quickly approaching, there isn’t much time left to get your family ready before the temperatures start to drop. At the very least, the furnace must be inspected before you turn it on, and if you neglect to do so, your home could suffer a much more devastating disaster than a little water in the basement.

Most people may not be aware of the crucial function the heat exchanger play in the operation of the furnace. The primary function of the heat exchanger is to move warm air through the duct system while also venting the toxic gases outside the home. Over time the heat exchanger may become cracked or even fail. When this happens the ability of the heat exchanger to vent gases is decreased and can even result in the gases being circulated into the duct work and throughout your home.
