In 4 Seasons' first Trusted Saskatoon Air Conditioning and Furnace tip, they go over how to keep your furnace fighting through a Saskatchewan winter.


Winter Warrior: How to Keep Your Furnace Fighting Through a Saskatchewan Winter

Hello, Saskatoon! Brrrrr! It’s that time of year again—when the cold sets in and your furnace steps up as the MVP of your home. At 4 Seasons Plumbing, Heating & Cooling, we know just how brutal our prairie winters can be, and we want to make sure your furnace is in peak condition to take on the cold. Here’s how to ensure your heating system stays strong all season long.

Filter Check: The Secret to Efficiency

Your furnace’s air filter is like a shield against dust and debris. A clogged filter forces your system to work harder, increasing energy bills and unnecessary wear and tear. We recommend checking your filter once a month and replacing it as needed to keep the warm air flowing efficiently.

The Thermostat Test: Is Your Furnace Listening?

Your thermostat is the brain behind your home’s heating. If your house isn’t warming up, it should test your thermostat by adjusting the temperature a few degrees higher. If there’s no response, it may be time for a battery replacement or a thermostat upgrade to a smart system for better efficiency.

Give Your Furnace Room to Breathe

Your furnace needs space to operate safely and efficiently. Keep storage items, boxes, and other clutter at least three feet away to ensure proper airflow and reduce fire risks. It’s also good to check that furniture or rugs don’t block your vents and registers.

Listen for Trouble: Strange Noises Explained

A healthy furnace should run quietly in the background. If you hear banging, rattling, or whistling, your furnace calls for help. These noises could indicate anything from loose components to a blower motor issue. Don’t ignore them—check it before a small problem becomes a full system breakdown.

Annual Tune-Up: Your Furnace’s Winter Check-Up

Just like your car needs an oil change, your furnace needs regular maintenance to perform its best. An annual furnace tune-up by a professional can improve efficiency, prevent breakdowns, and extend the lifespan of your system. If you haven’t booked your winter maintenance yet, now’s the time!

Emergency Ready: Know the Signs of Furnace Failure

No one wants to wake up to a freezing house in the middle of the night. Watch for these red flags that indicate your furnace may be on the verge of failure:

  • Frequent cycling on and off
  • Uneven heating throughout your home
  • Unusual smells, especially burning or gas odours
  • A yellow pilot light (instead of blue), which could indicate a carbon monoxide issue

If you notice any of these warning signs, don’t wait! Call 4 Seasons Plumbing, Heating & Cooling before your furnace decides to take an unscheduled winter vacation.

Stay Warm, Stay Safe

We know that Saskatchewan winters don’t mess around, but with a little furnace TLC, you can stay cozy all season long. Whether you need a furnace tune-up, emergency repair, or a brand-new high-efficiency system, we’ve got your back. Give us a call today, and let’s keep that heat flowing!

Stay warm,

Breathe Better Specializes in Looking After Commercial HVAC Systems


Proper maintenance and cleaning of commercial HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) systems are essential for their efficient operation and to ensure good indoor air quality. Here are some tips for commercial HVAC cleaning:

1. Regular filter replacement: Filters in HVAC systems should be checked regularly and replaced as needed. Clogged or dirty filters can restrict airflow and reduce system efficiency. Follow the manufacturer's guidelines for filter replacement frequency.


2. Cleaning of coils: The evaporator and condenser coils in HVAC systems can accumulate dust, dirt, and debris over time, affecting their efficiency. Regularly inspect and clean these coils using appropriate cleaning methods and products. Consider hiring a professional service for coil cleaning.


3. Cleaning of air ducts: Air ducts can accumulate dust, allergens, and contaminants. Periodic cleaning of air ducts helps maintain good indoor air quality and system efficiency. Professional duct cleaning services can use specialized equipment to thoroughly clean the ductwork.


4. Condensate drain maintenance: Condensate drains can become clogged with algae, debris, or sediment. Regularly inspect and clean the condensate drain lines to prevent blockages and potential water damage. If necessary, use a mild bleach solution to disinfect the drain lines.


5. Inspection and cleaning of fans and fan blades: Fans and fan blades can accumulate dirt and debris, affecting their performance. Inspect and clean the fans and fan blades regularly to maintain optimal airflow. Use appropriate cleaning methods and tools recommended by the manufacturer.


6. Maintenance of outdoor units: Outdoor units can be exposed to debris, leaves, and other obstructions. Regularly inspect and clean the outdoor units, removing any debris that may hinder airflow. Trim vegetation around the units to ensure proper airflow and access for maintenance.


7. Professional maintenance and cleaning: Consider hiring professional HVAC technicians to perform regular maintenance and cleaning of your commercial HVAC system. They have the expertise, tools, and knowledge to conduct thorough inspections, identify potential issues, and provide proper cleaning and maintenance.


8. Regular system inspections: Schedule regular inspections of your HVAC system to identify any issues or potential areas of concern. Early detection of problems can help prevent costly repairs and maintain system efficiency. Remember, proper cleaning and maintenance of your commercial HVAC system are crucial for optimal performance, energy efficiency, and good indoor air quality.


Following these tips and consulting with professionals can help ensure that your system operates effectively and provides a comfortable and healthy environment for occupants.

A message from Janice Braden. " Yes, I have been terribly impressed by everyone who is coming in to work. It's almost like everyone feels a responsibility to prove what good workmanship should be - I hear snips of conversations about doing it right, double and triple checking, making sure things will last for years. Everything that is going in, layer by layer, is solid and of excellent quality and I couldn't be happier or more impressed. And yes, the ridiculous potlight is gone (Arlen from Age Of Electric said none of them was actually hooked to a switch anywhere..oh my!). "
