J.R. Putman dispatches HVAC technicians certified by the North American Technician Excellence program to keep home furnaces healthy, happy, and hiccup-free. Arriving in fully stocked service vehicles, crews refresh furnace function with a comprehensive cleaning and 40-point inspection. Technicians check and adjust gas pressure to manufacturer specifications, conduct a video-camera inspection and thorough cleaning of the heat exchanger when accessible, and gently probe ductwork with a series of leading questions. The furnace tune-up delivers a range of benefits, which may include extending the life of furnace equipment and improving air quality so family bands can breathe easy when making prank phone calls. For added peace of mind, techs affix a new, battery-powered carbon-monoxide detector to monitor air quality, and J.R. Putman backs all its services with a 100% guarantee.
