Have you had your furnace inspected this year?

A cracked furnace heat exchanger is a serious safety hazard because it can allow combustion gases, including potentially deadly carbon monoxide, to enter the home's air supply. Carbon monoxide is colourless, odourless, and can cause poisoning or death.

Homeowners should have their furnaces professionally inspected annually to identify cracks, corrosion, combustion problems, and other potential hazards before they become dangerous. Annual inspections also help maintain heating efficiency, reduce unexpected breakdowns, and extend the furnace's lifespan. Working carbon monoxide alarms provide an additional essential layer of protection.

To hire an unbiased* home inspector to inspect your furnace in Ajax, Pickering or the Durham Region contact Moffat Inspections to get a home inspection.

* Why does an unbiased inspection matter? If you hire someone who installs and repairs furnaces for a living they are going to want to repair or replace your furnace, potentially even if there's nothing wrong with it. They are there to sell you either a new furnace or give you a repair bill. A home inspector is there to see if there is anything wrong with the item being inspected, and they're not there to sell you a furnace or repairs. They're just there to inspect it, write a report about the inspection, shake your hand and wish you a great day.

Have a great day!
