What’s Involved in a Professional Tune-Up?
When our expert technicians arrive for your furnace maintenance service, we use a thorough process to ensure every component of your system is checked. Steps include:
- Inspection of Key Components: Your technician examines all essential system components for wear, damage, or issues that could cause future breakdowns, especially in your heat exchanger, burners, and blower motors.
- System Cleaning: By removing dust, debris, and soot from your burners, flame sensor, blower, and electrical terminals, we restore efficient airflow and clean combustion.
- Filter Replacement: We recommend replacing your filter every 1 to 3 months to maintain proper airflow. Our team installs fresh filters during maintenance to improve air quality and operational efficiency.
- Lubrication of Moving Parts: All moving components, such as blower motors and bearings, are properly lubricated to reduce friction, eliminate screeching, and prevent premature wear.
- System Testing: After inspection and cleaning, our technician tests the ignition system, thermostat calibration, sequence of operations, and safety controls to ensure proper function.
- Gas & Electrical Calibration: When necessary, our team adjusts manifold gas pressure and burner settings to keep your system operating at peak fuel efficiency.

- Catch Issues Early: During maintenance, our professionals detect and resolve minor wear-and-tear issues before they escalate into costly emergency repairs.

How Does Preventative Maintenance Prevent Common Furnace Failures?
Problem: Furnace short-cycling or locking out due to dirty sensors or clogged air filters.
Solution: We polish flame sensors, clear airflow restrictions, and replace clogged air filters to ensure continuous, uninterrupted heat calls.
Problem: Inefficient combustion causing high fuel bills and carbon monoxide safety risks.
Solution: We inspect heat exchangers for microscopic cracks, clean gas burner orifices, and test flue draft safety to guarantee clean combustion.
Problem: Squeaking, screeching, or rattling noises caused by unlubricated bearings or loose blower assemblies.
Solution: We lubricate motor bearings, balance blower wheels, and tighten electrical connections to deliver quiet, reliable heating performance.
Problem: Voided manufacturer parts warranties due to lack of documented annual maintenance.
Solution: Our annual tune-up records provide official service documentation required by major HVAC manufacturers to keep active parts warranties valid.

Furnace Maintenance FAQs
What time of year should I schedule a furnace tune-up?
To ensure that your furnace is ready to take on subzero Midwest winter cold, we recommend scheduling your tune-up in late summer or early fall. Pre-season maintenance leaves plenty of time for minor adjustments before freezing temperatures drop.
How can I keep my furnace running smoothly between professional service visits?
Homeowners can maintain their furnace between tune-ups by regularly changing air filters every 1 to 3 months, keeping supply and return air vents clear of furniture, inspecting pilot/ignition status, and maintaining clear space around the furnace cabinet.
How long does a professional furnace maintenance tune-up take?
A comprehensive furnace maintenance inspection and tune-up typically takes between 60 to 90 minutes. Our technician conducts a full multi-point safety check, cleans internal components, and verifies operational static pressures.
Will furnace maintenance help lower my monthly energy bills?
Yes! Cleaning dirty burners, replacing clogged air filters, and calibrating manifold gas pressure eliminates friction and fuel waste, allowing your furnace to heat your home using significantly less gas or electricity.
Do you offer maintenance plans and service discounts in Northeast Indiana?
Yes! Masters Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electrical offers preventative maintenance agreements, flexible financing, and special service discounts for military members, veterans, and senior citizens.
