What is included in a furnace tune-up
A standard tune-up covers cleaning, testing, and a written report on your system's condition. Repairs beyond the tune-up are quoted separately before we start.
Work order
Furnace Tune-Up- Burner and heat exchanger cleaning: Burners come out and get brushed clean. The heat exchanger gets brushed and scoped with an inspection camera for cracks, soot, or scaling. This is where we catch the problems that turn into carbon monoxide calls if they go unnoticed.
- Ignition and flame sensor testing: We test the igniter, flame sensor, and thermocouple with a thermocouple tester. Weak readings get flagged and replaced if needed. A dirty flame sensor is one of the most common reasons a furnace will not turn on, and it is a cheap fix when caught early.
- Gas pressure and combustion analysis: A manometer verifies inlet and manifold gas pressure against the manufacturer spec. A flue gas analyzer checks combustion efficiency and carbon monoxide levels. If the burn is off, we adjust the gas valve or flag a deeper issue.
- Blower motor and electrical check: The blower motor gets inspected, cleaned, and lubricated where applicable. We test the capacitor with a multimeter, read control board fault codes, and verify the limit switch and gas valve. Electrical faults are the second most common cause of no-heat calls.
- Filter and airflow verification: We check the filter and measure static pressure at the return and supply. If airflow is restricted, we tell you whether it is the filter, the ductwork, or the blower. Correct airflow is what keeps your system from tripping the limit switch on cold nights.
- Written condition report: You get a written summary with the readings we took, what we cleaned, and what parts are showing wear. That report becomes the baseline for next year's tune-up, so we can spot trends before they turn into failures.

What a Furnace Tune-Up Severance CO covers
A tune-up is the cheapest hour you will ever spend on your furnace. It catches worn parts while the weather is mild and keeps the system running safely through a Colorado winter.
A Furnace Tune-Up Severance CO is a full mechanical inspection and cleaning of your heating system, not just a filter swap. We pull the burners, brush the heat exchanger, test the igniter and flame sensor, check the thermocouple, and measure gas pressure with a manometer. The blower motor gets inspected and lubricated, the capacitor gets tested with a multimeter, and the control board is checked for fault codes. We also verify the limit switch and gas valve operation so nothing trips mid-winter.
Severance sits in Weld County where winter nights drop below zero and furnaces run hard from October through April. That kind of workload wears out igniters, clogs flame sensors, and stresses blower motors faster than most homeowners expect. If you have noticed a furnace banging noise, cold air from the vents, or a pilot light that will not stay lit, an annual furnace tune up in Severance, Colorado is the right first call. We also serve surrounding towns like Windsor, Eaton, and Timnath.

How our tune-up visit runs
Every tune-up follows the same sequence so nothing gets skipped. Here is what you can expect from the moment we pull into your driveway in Severance.
Tools and methods we use on every visit
Each method answers a different question. Together they leave very little to guess.
Verifies inlet and manifold gas pressure against the manufacturer spec. Also used to measure static pressure across the system so we can spot airflow restrictions.
Tests capacitors, control board voltages, and continuity on the ignition circuit. A weak capacitor is a common cause of blower motors that run hot or fail to start.
Confirms the thermocouple on standing-pilot furnaces is generating enough millivolts to hold the pilot valve open. Weak readings mean the pilot will drop out.
Reads carbon monoxide and stack temperature at the flue. Confirms combustion is within spec and flags a cracked heat exchanger or a blocked flue before it becomes a safety issue.

How furnace tune-ups run in Severance
Severance sits at about 5,000 feet in Weld County, and the heating season here runs long. Furnaces in this area typically fire from October through April, and January nights regularly drop below zero.
Downtown Severance
Older homes near the center of town often have standing-pilot furnaces and original ductwork. Tune-ups here focus on thermocouple testing and airflow correction.
Severance new builds
Newer construction typically uses high-efficiency condensing furnaces. Condensate lines and PVC venting need annual inspection to prevent freeze-ups in January.
Windsor border homes
Homes on the Severance-Windsor line often have larger square footage and zoned systems. We check zone dampers and static pressure on every tune-up.

PhotoShort cycling furnace in Severance
Before: A homeowner in Severance called because the furnace was starting and stopping every few minutes and the house never reached the thermostat setpoint. The filter was clogged, the flame sensor was dirty, and static pressure was well above spec. The system had not been serviced in three years.
After: We cleaned the burners and flame sensor, replaced the filter, and adjusted the blower speed to bring static pressure back within ACCA guidelines. Runtime stabilized, and the homeowner reported the house held temperature through the next cold snap. Combustion efficiency improved by several points on the analyzer.
Cracked heat exchanger caught in Windsor
Before: A rental property in Windsor had a furnace that was running but producing a faint odor. The tenant had not reported carbon monoxide symptoms, but the homeowner wanted a checkup before winter. Our camera inspection found a cracked heat exchanger section near the burner box.
After: We shut the system down, documented the crack with photos, and walked the owner through repair versus replacement. The furnace was 19 years old, so replacement was the right call. The new unit was installed and commissioned with combustion testing before the tenant moved back in.
Pilot light failure in Eaton
Before: An older home in Eaton had a standing-pilot furnace that would not stay lit. The homeowner had relit it three times in a week. Our tune-up found a weak thermocouple reading and a dirty pilot orifice. The furnace was also overdue for a burner cleaning.
After: We replaced the thermocouple, cleaned the pilot assembly and burners, and verified the pilot held steady for a full cycle. Gas pressure was checked with a manometer and confirmed within spec. The homeowner has not had a pilot outage since.
Furnace problems a tune-up catches early
Most furnace failures start as small issues that a tune-up would have caught.
Furnace blowing cold air
Usually a dirty flame sensor or a failing igniter.
Furnace won't turn on
A no-heat call in January is an emergency.
Furnace banging noise
Banging on startup often points to delayed ignition or a blower motor issue. Ignoring it can crack the heat exchanger or damage the blower wheel.
Furnace leaking water
Water around the furnace usually means a clogged condensate line or a failing inducer. Left alone, it can rust the cabinet and short the control board.
Pilot light won't stay lit
On older standing-pilot furnaces, this usually means a failing thermocouple or a dirty pilot orifice. Without heat, pipes can freeze in a cold snap.
Why Severance homeowners schedule a tune-up
A furnace that gets serviced every year runs cleaner, lasts longer, and costs less to operate. Here is what our customers actually notice after a visit.
Lower monthly gas bills
A dirty burner and a clogged filter force your furnace to run longer to hit the thermostat setpoint.
Fewer mid-winter breakdowns
The parts that fail on a cold night are almost always the ones that were already worn.
Safer combustion
A cracked heat exchanger can push carbon monoxide into your living space.
Longer equipment life
A furnace that gets annual service routinely runs 15 to 20 years. One that gets ignored often quits at 10 or 12.

What Severance customers say
Our furnace was short cycling and the house never felt warm. The tech pulled the burners, cleaned everything, and showed me the flame sensor reading before and after. Turns out it was dirty and the airflow was restricted by a filter we had let go too long. Heat has been steady all winter since. Worth every dollar.
We booked a furnace checkup in Severance for our rental property and the tech found a cracked heat exchanger we did not know about. He walked us through the options, no pressure, and we ended up replacing the unit. Glad we caught it before a tenant got sick. Honest work.
Called on a Sunday when the furnace quit. They had a tech out within a couple hours, replaced the igniter, and had us back up before bedtime. He also did a quick tune-up while he was there and gave us a written report. Fair price, no upsell. We use them every fall now.

Still have a question?
Describe what you are seeing and we will point you to the right next step.
(970) 1234567Gas furnaces are usually on the lower end; propane and electric systems or units that have not been serviced in years can run higher. If we find a worn part during the visit, we quote it before doing any repair work. Call (970) 1234567 for a current quote.
Once a year, ideally in early fall before the first hard freeze. Severance winters push furnaces hard from October through April, and a year of runtime is enough to dirty a flame sensor, wear an igniter, or clog a filter. If your system is older than 12 years or runs on propane, we sometimes recommend a mid-season check as well.
