THE MAJOR STEPS IN A PROPER
FURNACE CLEANING AND TUNE UP
 Clear Blowers
 Furnace blowers are constantly moving air around, which is why they
are often equipped with filters. It’s important for blowers themselves to
be cleaned out and prepared for smooth operation. They can become
clogged or stop working properly over time, especially the fans
themselves. Compressed air or a simple wipe down will remove dust
buildup on blowers and get them running properly once again. If your
blower begins to sound strange, it’s possible it just needs a thorough
cleaning.
 Replace Filters
 Your system should have a minimum of one in-line filter and many have
additional filters to care for as well. It’s important that each one of
these filters is replaced at the time of cleaning to keep them in good
operating condition and to prevent things like air blockages from
developing.
