Groundhog Day isn't just about predicting the weather; have you ever considered that it’s also the perfect time to request a tune-up for your HVAC system? At Appalachian Heating, our team of certified experts can keep your heating and cooling system in optimal condition. It just so happens that this time of year is a prime moment for an HVAC service call.
The Best Time to Plan Your HVAC Maintenance Service
As Groundhog Day marks the end of the coldest part of winter, it's also an ideal time to check your heating system. For example, constant freezing temperatures can put significant stress on important parts of the system. Scheduling routine HVAC maintenance gives an experienced HVAC professional a chance to determine whether your furnace needs some TLC.
Scheduling maintenance around Groundhog Day also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system before temperatures start to rise. In fact, the recommended schedule of two maintenance appointments each year will offer better results. One should be before spring with the other in fall.
Key Items to Include in Your HVAC Checkup
Routine maintenance visits are essential for ensuring your HVAC system operates efficiently for many years. A thorough inspection and cleaning routine allows our technicians the time they need to ensure everything is in good condition. On a service call, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will perform can include:
- Replacing the air filters or replacing any lost coolant: Maintaining balance of airflow and filtration is critical, which means a consistent schedule of cleaning or switching out the air filters. If your system has lost any refrigerant, we'll restore the supply and identify the source of the leak.
- Clearing the drain lines: Cleaning the drainage system keeps things flowing like it’s supposed to and minimize the risk of water damage.
- Checking electrical connections and safety features: Double checking that the wiring and software features are working correctly is imperative. This avoids fires and preserves your system's reliability.
The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—preventing problems before they happen. Such proactive service from our professionals can offer your heating and cooling systems the best chance for peak performance.
