- Change the filter or wash the filter on your furnace twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall. Furnaces need air to have complete combustion, lack of air can cause incomplete combustion and carbon monoxide to be released. Clean more often if you have pets.
- If you vacuum out your furnace when you change filters, turn the power off to the furnace to avoid electrical shocks.
- Change the batteries in your carbon monoxide detector when you change the batteries in your smoke detectors, twice a year.
- Don’t hang anything like garden hoses on your meter, excessive weight can add strain and have the potential to break the piping and cause a leak/explosion.
