The holidays are the most wonderful (and busiest) time of year and we are getting ready to start the Season! Between family gatherings, big meals, and houseguests, your home’s HVAC and plumbing systems will be working overtime.
Before the festivities begin, take a few simple steps to make sure everything runs smoothly- and your guests stay cozy and comfortable.
1. Schedule a Heating Tune-Up
Your system hasn’t worked hard since last winter, and the last thing you want is a breakdown during Thanksgiving dinner. A professional heating tune-up from Stuart Pro Heating, Air & Plumbing keeps your furnace or heat pump running efficiently, safely, and reliably. You’ll enjoy consistent warmth and peace of mind-no space heaters needed!
2. Freshen the Air with a Clean Filter
Holiday cooking, candles, and guests can all impact your indoor air quality. Swap out your air filter before the season starts for cleaner air and better airflow. It’s a small step that makes a big difference in how your home feels (and smells!).
3. Keep Drains and Garbage Disposals Clear
Hosting means extra dishes and plenty of kitchen activity. Protect your plumbing by keeping grease, bones, and potato peels out of the disposal.
Pro tip: Run cold water before, during, and after using the disposal to help flush food particles through the system. If your sink is already draining slowly, schedule a quick drain cleaning service now-before guests arrive.
4. Make Sure Everyone Gets a Hot Shower
More guests mean more showers and laundry. If your water heater struggles to keep up or takes forever to heat, have our team inspect it for sediment buildup or aging components. You’ll avoid those “who used all the hot water?!” moments during family visits.
5. Set Your Thermostat for Comfort and Savings
When your home fills with people (and cooking heat), the temperature naturally rises. Lowering the thermostat a few degrees before guests arrive keeps everyone comfortable without wasting energy. For even better control, consider upgrading to a smart thermostat- perfect for managing comfort whether you’re home or away.
