Take a look around your furnace before heating season gets busier.

Boxes, decorations, cleaning supplies, and other household items can gradually accumulate around HVAC equipment, especially in basements and utility rooms.

For safety, combustible items should be kept at least three feet away from heating equipment.

A quick cleanup around the furnace is one simple step you can take this fall to create a safer, easier-to-access space around your system.

A fall furnace tune up is about more than checking whether the heat turns on.

Professional maintenance gives a technician an opportunity to inspect important components, look for signs of wear, check system operation, and identify developing concerns before the furnace is relying on those components every day.

October is a great time to make sure your heating system is prepared for the colder months ahead.

Schedule your furnace maintenance with Rick Rasch Heating & Cooling.

Your heating bill can be one clue that your furnace is working harder than it should.

Some increase in energy use is expected as temperatures fall. But if your system is running much longer than usual, struggling to reach the temperature you set, or using more energy without keeping the house comfortable, it is worth paying attention.

Changes in efficiency can have several causes, and finding the reason now can help you head into colder weather with more confidence.

When the heat is running, one room should not feel like a completely different season.

A room that consistently stays colder than the rest of the house can be affected by airflow, blocked vents, ductwork, insulation, or other factors affecting how heat moves through your home.

Turning the thermostat higher may warm up the rest of the house without solving the real problem.

If uneven temperatures are becoming more noticeable this fall, Rick Rasch Heating & Cooling can help take a closer look.

If the furnace is running but the air coming from your vents feels cool, start with the thermostat.

When the fan is set to ON instead of AUTO, it can continue circulating air between heating cycles, which may make the air from the vents feel cooler even when the furnace is not actively heating.

If the settings look right but your home still is not warming up the way it should, there may be another issue worth investigating.

Rick Rasch Heating & Cooling can help get to the source of the problem.

Turning on the furnace for the first time this fall and noticing a smell?

A light dusty odor can be normal during the first few heating cycles as dust that settled on components during the warmer months burns off. It should usually fade fairly quickly.

A strong electrical, burning plastic, or persistent burning smell is different and should not be ignored.

If something does not smell right when your heat comes on, Rick Rasch Heating & Cooling can help determine what is going on.

Fall can bring a little bit of everything to St. Louis.

Cool mornings, warm afternoons, and changing temperatures can have your HVAC system switching between sitting idle and getting right back to work. This is a good time to pay attention to how comfortable your home feels as the weather begins to change.

If something seems different when your system starts, stops, or changes modes, it is worth addressing before the next season is in full swing.

Rick Rasch Heating & Cooling is here to help keep your home comfortable through every change in the forecast.

Water around your indoor HVAC equipment is a sign worth paying attention to.

Your air conditioner removes moisture from the air as it cools your home, and that water should drain safely away from the system. If a condensate line becomes clogged or another drainage problem develops, water can begin collecting around the equipment instead.

Catching the source early can help prevent water damage and keep a small HVAC issue from becoming a bigger problem.

Your heating and cooling equipment is only part of what keeps your home comfortable.

Ductwork carries conditioned air throughout the house, and leaks, damaged sections, or poor connections can allow that air to escape before it reaches the rooms where you need it.

If your system seems to be working hard but comfort is still inconsistent, the ductwork may be worth taking a closer look at.

The calendar may say September, but St. Louis temperatures can still put your air conditioner to work.

After months of summer heat, this is also when changes in performance can become easier to notice. Longer run times, inconsistent cooling, or a system that is struggling to keep up are worth paying attention to.

Do not assume an end-of-summer AC problem can simply wait until next year. Taking care of it now can help prevent a bigger issue later.
