Furnace Maintenance

We treat every home like it's our own.
Arkansas weather can really put your furnace to the test. During those long summer months, your system just sits there, gathering dust and debris. When that first chilly snap arrives, your furnace has to kick into high gear after being dormant for so long, and that's often when hidden issues start to surface.
At BR McGinty, our family-owned heating company in Little Rock takes pride in doing the job right, providing honest advice, thorough maintenance, and dependable service you can count on all year round.

When you schedule furnace maintenance with BR McGinty, here's what we'll do:
Our technicians take the time to thoroughly inspect your entire system, catch any small problems early on, and make sure everything is running safely.
When your furnace reaches a certain age, maintaining it isn't always the best long-term solution.
Routine maintenance is your best option when:
- A well-maintained furnace runs more efficiently and lasts longer
- Routine maintenance spares you the headache of unexpected breakdowns
- Our technicians catch small problems early and make sure everything is running safely
- Our Annual Maintenance Agreement is the easiest way to protect your furnace and your wallet through every season
Consider replacement when:
- Your furnace is 15–20 years old — replacing it may be more cost-effective than continuing to maintain it
- Today's high-efficiency systems can recover their cost over time through lower energy bills
- The cost of repairs exceeds half the price of a new unit — replacement is usually the better option
- Your system struggles to keep your home comfortable or is driving up energy costs
During your maintenance appointment, our technicians will evaluate your furnace, discuss its condition with you, and offer honest recommendations based on your specific needs. If replacement makes sense, we'll provide a free estimate on the latest high-efficiency options.
A little routine attention goes a long way.
While we handle the professional maintenance, there are simple steps you can take throughout the year to protect your system and help it perform its best.
Winter Preparation
- Replace your air filters before peak heating season — clogged filters are a top cause of system strain and poor airflow.
- Test your thermostat and replace the batteries if needed.
- Schedule your furnace maintenance early — don't wait until the first freeze.
- Know where your gas shutoff valve is located in case of an emergency or strong gas odor.
Spring System Checks
- Schedule a post-season furnace inspection to catch wear and tear before it worsens.
- Clean or replace filters again — a fresh filter keeps your HVAC system in better shape year-round.
- Consider a full HVAC tune-up to prepare for the demands of summer cooling.
Year-Round DIY
- Keep your vents clear — furniture, laundry, boxes, and debris block airflow and force your system to work harder.
- Check your thermostat periodically — test battery-powered wall thermostats monthly.
- Listen to your system — pay attention to changes in noise, airflow, or how evenly your home heats.
