Before you shut off your furnace and disregard it until the following year, you’ll want to get it prepped for its annual hibernation. There are some things you can do now to prep your system so it’s ready to go next season.

Flipping the Switch

There was awhile where it seemed like this day wouldn’t come, but the moment has finally arrived for you to flip the switch on your thermostat from heating to cooling.

If you have any questions about your warranty, the team at JTech Mechanical will certainly help you.
