Congratulations on your new heating system! Did you remember to cover the opening to the roof vent? If not, you're not alone, but you should call the company that just installed your furnace. Have them put a mesh vent cover over the opening to prevent debris from falling inside. Anything falling down these vents can eventually make it to the furnace flame and create a burning smell that permeates your house. If you have new heating Toledo has companies that can easily add a vent cover, stopping most debris from making its way into the vent.
You Never Want to Smell Burning
Burning is never a good smell if it's coming from your furnace. Sometimes it's just a little dust burning off at the beginning of the season, and that goes away quickly. But more often than not, prolonged burning odors indicate something wrong with the furnace. While a leaf falling into the vent and hitting the furnace isn't much of a problem, it creates a burning smell that you then have to get checked out. That costs you money. The solution is to add that mesh cover to stop birds from nesting in the vent opening and to stop the wind from blowing leaves into the vent.
Covers Aren't Expensive
A roof vent cover isn't expensive, but you do want a Toledo heating and air conditioning company to install it. Not only will they know exactly what to do, but they'll also be able to check the vent for potential debris before covering it. Plus, it's just not safe to be on a roof if you don't know what you're doing.
