With September’s warm days still lingering, it’s easy to overlook the approaching winter chill. But preparing your heating system now can save you from the stress of a cold home when temperatures drop below 40°F. At Shafer Heating & Cooling, LLC, we believe in our core philosophy: a Win, Win, Win for customers, employees, and business. Here are four essential steps to ensure your heating system is ready for winter, backed by our 24-hour emergency service, 100% money-back guarantee, lifetime unit replacement guarantee, “No Lemon” guarantee, and lowest price guarantee.

Schedule a Professional Tune-Up
A pre-season tune-up is the foundation of a reliable heating system. Our technicians, each trained for over 200 hours annually, thoroughly inspect your system to catch potential issues before they become costly repairs. Scheduling a tune-up now, before temperatures dip to 30°F or lower, ensures your heater runs efficiently and keeps your home cozy. Members of The Club enjoy priority service, discounted diagnostic fees, and a 25% utility savings guarantee, making maintenance even more rewarding.
Change Your Air Filters
Clean air filters are critical for efficient heating and healthy indoor air. Clogged filters force your system to work harder, increasing energy costs and reducing airflow. Check and replace your filters every 1–3 months, especially before winter’s heavy use. This simple step can prevent breakdowns when the thermostat reads 20°F outside. For Club members, repairs involving filter-related issues come with a 20% discount and lifetime warranties on replaced parts, ensuring long-term peace of mind.
Test and Calibrate Your Thermostat
A properly functioning thermostat is key to maintaining consistent comfort. Test your thermostat now to ensure it accurately controls your system. If it’s outdated or unresponsive, consider upgrading to a smart thermostat for precise temperature control and energy savings. Our team can help you choose and install the right model, with Club members enjoying 10% off new system installations. A quick check now prevents discomfort when winter nights hit 10°F or colder.
Inspect Older Systems
If your heating system is over 10 years old, it’s time for a professional inspection. Older units are more prone to breakdowns, especially during freezing 0°F weather. Our technicians can assess whether your system needs repairs or if it’s time for a replacement. With our lifetime unit replacement guarantee and “No Lemon” guarantee, you can trust Shafer Heating & Cooling, LLC to deliver lasting solutions. For Club members, new installations come with a 10% discount, making upgrades more affordable.
