Don’t Wait for Furnace Problems. Schedule a Heat Check Today!

Your family deserves to feel safe and warm at home. When winter nights turn frigid, you don’t wanna deal with a broken furnace that leaves your loved ones in the cold. The cold isn’t even the only thing threatening your family’s cozy winter. Don’t forget about carbon monoxide! It’s an invisible, tasteless, scentless monster that doesn’t care about your family. And your furnace might be letting that monster right into YOUR home. Make sure it stays away with a heat safety check from Morris-Jenkins. 

Keep Your Family SAFE

Our technicians have families, too.  Your heat safety check will be done the RIGHT way because that’s what we’d want for our own families. After all, family is everything.

When you schedule your heat safety check with Morris-Jenkins, one of our safety experts will come out and do a careful inspection of your furnace to make sure carbon monoxide won’t sneak into your family’s air this winter. Think there’s no way carbon monoxide could end up in YOUR home? Think again. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, at least 430 people are killed by carbon monoxide every year. All it takes is a small crack in your heat exchanger to let this gas into your home. Let us make sure everything looks secure and safe!

While we’re at it, we’ll check for:

  • Fire hazards. Your furnace is a controlled fire burning in your home. Fortunately, your heating system comes with several safety features that keep the fire contained. If your unit is damaged, these sensors and features might not work right. That can lead to temperature control failures, flame roll-out disasters, and delayed ignition.
  • Toxic gas leaks. If your safety pressure control fails, toxic gases can leak into your home.
  • Other toxic fumes. A clogged exhaust system (or one improperly installed) allows toxic fumes into your home that can cause headaches, nausea, and other serious health problems.
  • Wear and tear. Even if the wear and tear on your unit doesn’t pose a threat to your family’s safety, you still don’t wanna risk your heat going out on the coldest winter nights. We’ll make sure they stay cozy all season!

What's in a Heat Safety Check?

During a heat safety check with Morris-Jenkins, we’ll:

Furnaces come with some risks, but as long as you keep up with regular maintenance, your home and family can stay safe!

  • Inspect high voltage wires that could be fire risks

  • Test for carbon monoxide in the home

  • Conduct a visual inspection of the heating system for anything that could lead to a gas leak or fire

  • Test all safety switches

  • Clean the system so dust and debris don’t cause a fire

  • Look for any animals like mice that could have moved into your ductwork or equipment, causing damage

  • Check your carbon monoxide and smoke detectors. If you have batteries on hand, we’ll go ahead and change those out too.

We don’t cut corners when it comes to your family’s safety. Not only will we make sure your furnace is working right, but while we’re at your home, your technician will also check your smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and filters!
