Home repair information

Friday, April 3rd, 2009

Rely on qualified repair and service to keep your furnace in shape. All furnaces, especially the oil-fired variety, need annual end-of- summer inspections. Burners need cleaning, oil nozzles need replacement, and often the electrodes and ignition device need cleaning and adjustment. None of these are jobs for the weekend handyman.
You can locate qualified furnace technicians through your mobile
home park operator, your fuel supplier, a list of authorized technicians in your Owner’s Warranty package, or the telephone directory.
You need a competent gas technician to convert yor natural gas system to Ip gas or vice versa. He can also see problems developing and correct them before your furnace fails. Schedule yearly furnace inspections into your budget; they may save you large repair bills and inconvenience later.
You also want dependable service fast when heating emergencies occur. For example, anytime you smell burnt oil or gas, you need a technician. Combustion should be odorless. Turn off the furnace. Open your windows. Call your repairman immediately. He’s more likely to respond quickly or at odd hours if you’re a known customer.

Home for maintenance

Tuesday, March 3rd, 2009

Maintaining an oil-fired heating system requires more work then with gas or electric. You maintain the furnace itself about the same,
but in addition you need to keep a close eye on your fuel tank and
fuel lines.
[ Ideally, an oil system operates best if you keep the fuel tank full, even during summer. Condensation can form on the walls of an empty or partially empty tank. This water has no place to go but to
r the bottom of the tank, since oil and water don’t mix. Sediment also collects along the tank bottom. To avoid heating problems, drain water and sediment from your tank at the start of each heating season. Open the drain and let it run until you see only clean oil, with no dirt or water-bubbles in it.
The fuel supply needs a filter where the fuel line runs from the bottom of the tank. Sometimes it’s a tossup, though, which is worse—sediment in the oil from the tank, or air and fibers in the oil from the filter. With your furnace technician, explore the best oilstorage method for your particular furnace.
Leaks in oil lines waste fuel, and let air into the fuel mixture prematurely. Tighten loose joints.
