Your Oil Fired Furnace Needs Care
Author : Terry Vostor
When shopping for an oil furnace balance long term savings against immediate cost and costs. Many more modern models come equipped with devices that improve the furnace's efficiency by as much as ten percent. This has to be weighed against the relative cost of a used unit purchased locally , its life expectancy, install costs and of course the time you predict that you will reside in the home or lake cottage.
An oil furnace works essentially by burning oil. It can be standard petroleum oil based heavy furnace oil - "bunker oil". It can be waste oil products from a variety of sources. Regardless it is simply a matter of the furnace burning that oil and its residue to heat your home , office , cottage or condominium.
What care and maintenance is involved with these types of furnaces? It can be said that a few simple maintenance procedures can save you cash from your wallet and heating costs and budget. First when the system is idle, check fir a buildup of soot inside the furnace itself. Additionally check the barometric damper on the pipe between the furnace and the chimney. This valve which enables cold air to be drawn upwards from the basement to the chimney should open easily and freely. If the valve unit does stick, clean and oil those hinges. However if this continues with no avail simply call for an appointment with your local one hour furnace repairman or technician.
Make it a point in your yearly ongoing home and building care routines to plan for and insist on annual oil furnace inspection either by yourself or more highly trained and qualified heating and air conditioning staff. The furnace-man should measure the Carbon Dioxide level as the temperature of gases leaving the oil furnace itself. A well tuned oil furnace in good stead should run in the range of low 300's to the mid range of the 400 degree Fahrenheit temperatures spread: a circulating fan can be used to reduce the temperature if it is found to be too high. If the exhaust gas is not relatively soot free, the burner as well should be "tuned'.
In addition the service-person should remove soot from the firepot, heat exchanger and pipes. Has him or her - the furnace person check the flow of air through the firebox and chimney. Lastly if necessary have them adjust the barometric damper if necessary. If you have recently insulated your home, condo or cottage, ask the furnaceman about reducing the nozzle size on the burner to save you fuel costs.
It can be said that people "take their furnace for granted". Most home owners and consumers wait till disaster arrives before taking action. Some say that it is simply basic human nature. Other says it is just plain foolishness and false economy. In the cold Winnipeg January winter , every one else's furnace has given the ghost as well. Your furnace repair company will demand top emergency service rates for that service call to get your furnace spewing out hot air again. Calling a furnace repair facility for a service call in the dead of night during a cold January Winnipeg winter is like calling an undertaker for a quote for a funeral that must be scheduled on the very next day. Why not arrange for a routine ongoing maintenance service call now?
