5 Signs Your Furnace Needs Attention Before Winter

The first cold nights are the worst time to find out your furnace isn't working right. Catching small problems now usually means a simpler fix. Watch for these five signs:

Five Signs to Watch For

1. Strange noises

Banging, squealing or grinding can mean a loose part, worn belt or motor trouble.

2. Uneven heat

Cold rooms while others are warm can point to airflow, ducts or a furnace struggling to keep up.

3. Higher bills

If bills climb but your habits haven't changed, the furnace may be working harder than it should.

4. Short cycling

Turning on and off every few minutes wears it out and may not heat your home properly.

5. A dirty filter

A clogged filter makes the system work harder. Check it monthly in heating season.
