Furnace Certification Process for Your Denver Home

If you are buying or selling a house this summer (and if you are, our sympathies are with you–it’s a jungle out there!), you might have some questions about getting your furnace certified. A furnace certification is both a safety precaution and a reassurance that a furnace won’t have to be replaced in the near future.

The responsibility for furnace certification generally falls on the seller. Getting your furnace certified is a step you will need to take in order to prove that it is safe for a new family to move into the home. The certification proves that the heat exchanger is not cracked, which is crucial because a crack can mean that carbon monoxide is leaking into the home.

In order to get the furnace certification, you will need to hire a professional to do the inspection. Not all HVAC companies perform this service, but our team at Sensible Heating & Cooling can certainly complete the certification process for your home in Denver or the foothills. We are happy to do the work whether you are the buyer or the seller. The work can usually be done in 2-3 hours.
