# # 🛠️ How to Prevent Costly Plumbing & Heating Breakdowns

**Tips from Debord Plumbing and Heating**

No one wants a plumbing or heating emergency—especially when it could have been avoided. The good news? A little preventative care goes a long way. Here are some simple things homeowners can do to help keep their systems running smoothly all year long.

# # # 🔥 Heating System Tips

✔ **Change your furnace filter regularly**
A dirty filter restricts airflow, making your system work harder and increasing the chance of breakdowns. Most homes should change filters every 1–3 months.

✔ **Keep vents and returns clear**
Furniture, rugs, or curtains blocking vents can cause uneven heating and strain your system.

✔ **Don’t ignore unusual noises or smells**
Banging, whistling, or burning smells are early warning signs. Catching issues early can prevent major failures.

✔ **Schedule annual maintenance**
A professional tune-up helps catch worn parts, improve efficiency, and extend the life of your furnace.

# # # 🚿 Plumbing System Tips

✔ **Watch what goes down your drains**
Avoid grease, wipes, hygiene products, and food scraps—they are the most common causes of clogs.

✔ **Check for small leaks regularly**
A dripping faucet or damp cabinet may seem minor, but leaks waste water and can cause hidden damage.

✔ **Know where your main water shutoff is**
In an emergency, shutting off the water quickly can prevent thousands of dollars in damage.

✔ **Protect pipes in cold weather**
During freezing temperatures, keep cabinet doors open and allow faucets to drip to prevent frozen or burst pipes.

Its unfortunately that time of year again, make sure that you keep your exhaust vents clear on the outside of your house, the snow can drift up and block your vents causing the furnace to fail.
