• Clean or replace the furnace air filter: The air filter should be checked and cleaned or replaced every 1-3 months, depending on usage.

• Inspect and clean the blower assembly: The blower assembly should be inspected and cleaned to ensure that it is operating efficiently and not wasting energy.
• Check the thermostat: The thermostat should be checked to ensure that it is functioning properly and accurately controlling the temperature.
• Check the gas supply and connections: The gas supply and connections should be checked to ensure that there are no leaks or other safety hazards.
