Furnace Maintenance & Tune-Ups
Almost every “emergency, no-heat, coldest-night-of-January” call we get traces back to the same thing: a furnace that hadn’t been serviced in years. One annual tune-up is the cheapest heating insurance you can buy.

A J&M tune-up isn’t a filter swap and a handshake. It’s a full inspection of the components that actually fail — and the ones that can become safety hazards when they do.
Why annual maintenance pays for itself
- Fewer breakdowns — worn parts get caught before they fail on a holiday weekend
- Lower gas bills — clean burners and correct airflow restore lost efficiency
- Longer equipment life — well-maintained furnaces routinely outlast neglected ones by years
- Safety — heat exchanger and carbon monoxide checks protect your family
- Valid warranty — most manufacturers require documented annual service
What a J&M furnace tune-up includes
- Clean and inspect burners and ignition assembly
- Inspect the heat exchanger for cracks — the #1 carbon monoxide risk
- Test all safety controls, limit switches, and the thermostat
- Check gas pressure and combustion performance
- Inspect the blower motor and replace the filter
- Priority scheduling and repair discounts with a Preventive Maintenance Agreement
FAQ
Furnace Maintenance — common questions
Don’t see your question? Call 862-703-4222 — a real person answers, 24/7/365.
How often should a furnace be serviced?
Once a year, ideally in early fall before the first cold snap. That timing catches summer wear before the furnace goes back into daily duty — and beats the December scheduling rush.
Is annual maintenance really necessary?
Beyond breakdown prevention, yes, for two concrete reasons: most manufacturer warranties require documented annual service to stay valid, and a cracked heat exchanger — which only an inspection catches early — is the leading cause of carbon monoxide incidents in homes.
What is a Preventive Maintenance Agreement?
J&M’s maintenance plan covers your annual tune-ups automatically and gives you priority scheduling when you do need service — plan members jump the line during peak season. Ask about current plan pricing when you call.
Do you service boilers and heat pumps too?
Yes — we maintain furnaces, steam and hot-water boilers, heat pumps, mini-splits, and central AC. Many customers bundle fall heating and spring cooling visits into one agreement.
