Heating in Waltham: What's Local

What the data says about homes in Waltham — and what it means for heating maintenance & tune-ups.

Good to know about heating maintenance & tune-ups

  • ENERGY STAR advises homeowners to inspect, clean or change air filters once a month, noting airflow problems can reduce system efficiency by up to 15 percent.

    energystar.gov
  • Massachusetts requires working CO alarms on each level of homes with fossil-fuel burning equipment, including habitable basements and attics, and within 10 feet of any bedroom door (527 CMR 31.00 / MGL c. 148 §26F½) — a good item to verify during a heating tune-up.

    cityofboston.gov
  • Under 248 CMR 3.05, adjusting gas appliance controls without changing the connection to the gas supply or piping does not require a permit; gas piping changes require a permit issued to a licensed individual.
