Heating System Check is Good Insurance
Assistant State Fire Marshall Reynold Hentges says a yearly heating system check costs about 18 to 24 dollars in Des Moines, but saves far more by preventing fires. He notes five percent of Iowa residential fires last year were due to defective heating systems, with five deaths, and that 99 percent are preventable with inspection including lubrication, belt checks, furnace cleaning, wiring, fuel line leaks, and controls. Checks by fire departments are available on request but do not include repairs or duct cleaning.
