Air Quality, Comfort, and Safety for HVAC Systems
Winter brings more than colder weather and holiday gatherings—it also increases the risk of fires and carbon monoxide (CO) leaks. That's why this season is the perfect time to focus on HVAC system safety and indoor air quality.
Smoke and carbon monoxide can put your home and family at serious risk. Testing your detectors regularly and scheduling HVAC maintenance with Estes Services ensures you stay safe, warm, and protected all winter long.

The Importance of Early Detection
Early detection can make all the difference in a fire or CO emergency.
Smoke detectors are designed to identify danger before it becomes deadly, giving you and your loved ones time to act.
According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, nearly 2,000 people die in residential fires each year.
Many of these fires occur at night while residents are sleeping—before they realize smoke or gas has filled their home.
A working smoke detector sounds a sharp, unmistakable alarm that alerts you to danger in time to escape.
Carbon monoxide, on the other hand, is a colorless, odorless, and poisonous gas that causes over 150 deaths annually in the U.S.
CO detectors continuously monitor indoor air and sound an alarm when carbon monoxide levels become hazardous.
Common Sources of Carbon Monoxide Leaks
This dangerous gas is produced whenever fuel burns. Common household sources include:
HVAC systems and furnaces
Portable generators
Gas appliances and space heaters
Wood-burning stoves and fireplaces
Unvented or poorly vented fireplaces
Kerosene heaters
Damaged or leaky chimneys
Because these leaks can be difficult to detect, scheduling seasonal HVAC maintenance is essential for prevention.

Testing your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors is a good start—but your HVAC system also plays a key role in home safety.
Scheduling preventive maintenance with Estes Services helps minimize the risk of CO leaks and electrical fires.
