KANKAKEE, IL – January 05, 2026 – PRESSADVANTAGE –
Goodberlet Home Services announced the launch of its 2026 furnace maintenance programs, introducing a structured preventative service option for residential customers across the Chicagoland area. The programs are now available and are intended to support consistent furnace performance through scheduled inspections and routine maintenance.
The 2026 furnace maintenance programs were developed to give homeowners a more predictable approach to caring for their heating systems ahead of peak winter demand. According to the company, the programs establish defined service intervals and maintenance standards designed to identify potential issues early and reduce the likelihood of unexpected system failures during colder months.
“These programs are focused on preparation and reliability,” said Rick Jensen, who is authorized to speak on behalf of Goodberlet Home Services. “By setting clear expectations around maintenance and timing, we’re helping homeowners take a proactive approach to furnace care rather than reacting to problems after they occur.”
Goodberlet Home Services has provided HVAC, plumbing, and electrical services for more than four decades, serving residential and commercial customers throughout its service areas. The new furnace maintenance programs build on the company’s existing heating services by offering an organized framework for ongoing system care. The company stated that the programs are designed to complement, not replace, one-time service calls and emergency repairs.
Under the 2026 maintenance framework, participating households receive scheduled furnace evaluations conducted by licensed technicians. These visits focus on assessing system condition, verifying safe operation, and identifying components that may require attention before the heating season intensifies. Service scope may vary depending on system age and configuration, but the emphasis remains on preventative maintenance.
The introduction of the programs also supports internal planning for Goodberlet Home Services. By grouping maintenance visits within defined schedules, the company aims to improve technician availability and service consistency during high-demand periods. Jensen noted that this structure benefits both customers and service teams by reducing last-minute scheduling challenges.
“Regular maintenance works best when it’s planned,” Jensen said. “This approach allows our technicians to be thorough and gives homeowners confidence that their systems are being checked at the right times.”
The company indicated that the 2026 programs were developed in response to recurring customer interest in ongoing maintenance arrangements. Many homeowners, according to Goodberlet Home Services, prefer scheduled service that helps them avoid emergency situations rather than relying solely on reactive repairs.
Participation in the furnace maintenance programs is optional, and homeowners may continue to request individual service visits as needed. Emergency repair services will remain available regardless of program enrollment. The company emphasized that the new offerings are intended to expand customer options rather than limit access to existing services.
Throughout 2026, Goodberlet Home Services plans to review program performance and customer feedback to determine potential refinements in future years. Adjustments to scheduling, service scope, or administration may be introduced as homeowner needs and heating technologies evolve.
Home heating systems remain a critical concern for households in northern climates, where prolonged cold weather places consistent demands on furnaces. Goodberlet Home Services stated that the new maintenance programs are designed to address those conditions by encouraging early preparation and regular system evaluation.
The 2026 furnace maintenance programs are now available to eligible homeowners throughout the Chicagoland area, subject to system compatibility and service availability.
