Jefferson Heating really must be as good as it gets for keeping an old home oil furnace chugging along, year after year. Jeff Carlson has been doing an annual servicing every fall, and I'm genuinely grateful for his work.

If you live in the Willamette Valley and have an OIL furnace, you owe it to yourself to give Jefferson Heating a call. The owner, Jeff, has been in the business for over 25 years so he really knows his trade. I had a chance to talk with him when he was servicing my parents' oil furnace. Not only is he personable, but he is knowledgeable, fair, and honest. That's a rare combination in today's business world. He gave me 3 tips for those of you who have oil furnaces: 1. You shouldn't smell the oil when your furnace is on. If you do, something's wrong. 2. If your furnace resets, it's for a reason. Call a technician to see why. 3. It's very important to change your air filter regularly. And contrary to what you might think, you need to change the more expensive ones more often; (because of their efficiency they get clogged up sooner). He also said something funny with respect to his workload: "If I wake up in the morning and my joints ache, it's gonna be a good day (for business)." To those of you out there who were told you need a new oil furnace by another company, call Jefferson Heating before you do anything else. Sometimes it's as simple as replacing a minor part that a less experienced technician can miss. Even if the whole furnace does need to be replaced, Jeff can do that too; he's an authorized oil furnace dealer. And he guarantees all his work, including service calls.
