One of the most recommended ways of reducing the damage, breakdowns, and malfunction of a heater is with annual, scheduled Heater Tune-Ups. As with any other equipment, the life of a heater can be prolonged with the help of preventative maintenance which most importantly includes regular cleaning and inspection for possible problem areas.

All mechanical equipment that will be used in this process must be lubricated to prevent friction and damage to the operating parts. Complete lubrication should be of top priority.
