Why Furnace Maintenance Matters
Don’t wait for a breakdown—
protect your comfort today!
Ohio winters don’t play around. One cold snap can push your heating system to the limit—and if your furnace isn’t maintained, it’s more likely to fail when you need it most. Routine furnace maintenance keeps your system running safely and efficiently, reduces the risk of breakdowns, and saves you money in the long run.
Top reasons to schedule furnace maintenance:
No one wants a freezing house in January. Our professional heating maintenance service helps you stay ahead of the cold—and the costs.
Fast Furnace Maintenance to Keep You Warm
Fast, reliable service you can count on.
We’ve been keeping Ohio homes warm since 1972. As a family-owned business, we’re built on values you can feel: trust, speed, and care. Our heating technicians show up on time, communicate clearly, and treat every customer like a neighbor—because they are.

Your #1 Furnace Maintenance Experts in Columbus, Dayton & Cincinnati
Let’s keep your furnace in tip-top shape.
At Five Star Home Services, we offer two distinct types of furnace maintenance services to meet your home’s needs: a Safety Inspection and a full Tune-Up. While both are performed by our licensed, insured, and NATE-certified technicians, there are key differences in scope, time, and depth. Here’s how they compare:
Furnace Safety Inspection
A Basic Visual Check Focused on System Safety
Our furnace safety inspection is a standalone service designed to identify any obvious or visible safety concerns. This is ideal for homeowners who want a quick professional look at their system—especially before turning it on for the season or after a long period of inactivity.
What’s Included in the Safety Inspection:
- Visual inspection of gas lines and fittings
- Check for visible cracks or damage in the heat exchanger
- Inspection of electrical wiring and components
- Visual check of ventilation and exhaust pathways
- Thermostat function test
- Inspection of safety shut-offs and system startup
This service is great as a quick check-in—but it does not include cleaning, adjustments, or in-depth testing.
Furnace Tune-Up
Comprehensive Maintenance for Peak Performance
The furnace tune-up includes everything in the safety inspection, plus a full performance check and hands-on servicing of your system. This is a complete seasonal maintenance service that optimizes system efficiency, reduces wear and tear, and extends equipment lifespan.
What’s Included in the Tune-Up (in addition to all safety inspection points):
- Tightening electrical connections
- Lubricating motors, fans, and moving parts
- Flushing condensate drain lines
- Airflow measurement and duct connection check
- Full system calibration and performance testing
- Blower motor and fan testing
- Detailed system reporting and recommendations

Eddie Johnson, HVAC Service Call
“Mike came out to do a safety inspection for us on the furnace. As he started doing research on our furnace and found out it has not been serviced since we had it installed about 3 years ago. So I asked if he had time to do a full blown checkup. He made arrangements to do the checkup, made a couple recommendations and even cleaned out the chipmunk that met his demise by crawling in the make up air pipe and couldn’t make his way back out. Great guy, very personable. Even figured out that our new NEST thermostat wasn’t working properly.”
— Greg Rice
