When it comes to your home, comfort is important—but safety always comes first. Gas leaks, carbon monoxide exposure, and electrical hazards are all very real risks for homeowners in Baton Rouge. The problem? These dangers are often invisible until it’s too late.
At Doggone Good Heating & Cooling, we believe peace of mind starts with prevention. That’s why we offer professional safety checks for gas, carbon monoxide (CO), and electrical systems. Our thorough inspections help catch small issues before they turn into dangerous situations, protecting your family, your home, and your HVAC investment.
You can’t always see or smell a safety risk. That’s why regular inspections are essential.
A loose connection, aging gas line, or faulty furnace can release natural gas into your home. Beyond the health hazards, gas leaks also pose a major fire and explosion risk.
Carbon monoxide is known as the “silent killer” because it’s colorless and odorless. It can come from malfunctioning furnaces, water heaters, or other gas appliances. Even low-level exposure can cause headaches, nausea, and fatigue—while higher levels can be life-threatening.
Worn wires, loose connections, or overloaded circuits don’t just make your HVAC system unreliable—they can spark fires or cause electrical shocks. And in Louisiana’s humid climate, moisture makes these risks even more dangerous.
By scheduling regular safety checks, you’re not just protecting your HVAC system—you’re protecting your home and everyone in it.
Our Baton Rouge technicians perform comprehensive safety inspections tailored to the unique needs of your home. Here’s what we look at:
Inspect gas lines and connections for leaks.
Test furnace burners for proper ignition and combustion.
Examine the heat exchanger for cracks (a common CO risk).
Confirm proper ventilation of exhaust gases.
Use professional-grade equipment to detect CO leaks.
Check your home’s CO detectors for placement, functionality, and battery life.
Ensure combustion appliances are venting safely and effectively.
Inspect electrical connections and wiring for wear or corrosion.
Test circuit breakers and fuses for proper operation.
Check HVAC electrical components (motors, capacitors, contactors).
Confirm that safety controls are operating correctly.
Inspect airflow and filters to prevent overheating.
Check thermostat connections and settings.
Verify overall system safety performance.
This isn’t a quick glance—it’s a thorough evaluation designed to uncover issues before they become emergencies.
Routine safety checks offer much more than just peace of mind:
The number one reason for safety checks is to keep your loved ones safe. By catching leaks or hazards early, you can prevent health risks, fires, and even life-threatening situations.
It’s much cheaper to fix a loose connection or replace a worn part than it is to repair major damage—or worse, replace your entire system after a breakdown or fire.
A system running safely is also running efficiently. Safety checks often reveal issues that, once fixed, help reduce energy waste and lower your utility bills.
Regular inspections prevent unnecessary strain on your HVAC system, helping it last longer and reducing the need for premature replacements.
Knowing your home has been checked by professionals allows you to rest easy, no matter the season.
