After spending a fantastic deal of money on installing a brand up-to-date oil furnace, I was unwilling to invest in a repair plan.
The Heating & A/C contractor who handled the upgrade project highly suggested the dealer’s repair plan.
She told myself and others all about the many benefits. If I signed up for the repair package, the dealer would send a licensed professional to the condo every fall. The professional would thoroughly clean, inspect and adjust the heating unit. She said that the repair agreement would pay for itself by minimizing energy bills, preventing repairs and lengthening component life. I was not willing to spend more money on the oil furnace. I was already making payments on the lake condo improvement loan, then since the furnace only runs for about numerous months per year, I figured it would operate just fantastic without professional attention. I made sure to clean out the air filter every month. I planned to schedule repair for the oil furnace after a few years, then unfortunately, I never got around to it. After several years, the furnace hastily quit. I paid a pressing repair bill simply because I failed to have the components cleaned and troubleshooted every year. The professional said that I was fortunate the program didn’t overheat and crack the heat exchanger. The inner workings were so clogged with dust and debris, the furnace was forced to run for harshly long cycles and labor a lot harder to achieve the control unit setting; Plus, the contaminants within the program were getting introduced into the breathing air and risking my family’s health. I’ve now enrolled in the repair program to make sure my heating program keeps working safely, efficiently and reliably.
