Why is HVAC maintenance important?
Cost Savings: By scheduling regular HVAC maintenance, you can catch minor issues before they escalate into costly repairs, ultimately saving you money in the long run.
Energy Efficiency: A well-maintained HVAC system operates more efficiently, leading to potential savings of up to 30% on your monthly energy bills.
Improved Air Quality: Maintenance helps ensure your system delivers cleaner air, improving indoor air quality and creating a healthier living environment for you and your family.
Preventive Measures: Regular tune-ups help detect and prevent potential problems before they occur, reducing the risk of unexpected breakdowns and ensuring reliable operation when you need it most.
During the tune-up, an HVAC technician performs a series of maintenance tasks and checks to ensure that your air conditioning system is running efficiently and effectively.
- System Inspection: The technician starts by inspecting the entire furnace or air conditioning system, including the outdoor unit (condenser), indoor unit (evaporator), ductwork, thermostat, electrical connections, and refrigerant lines. They look for any visible signs of damage, leaks, or wear and tear.
- Refrigerant Check: The technician checks the refrigerant level in the system (impossible during the cold weather) and ensures that there are no leaks. They may also perform a refrigerant charge if needed to maintain optimal cooling performance (at extra cost).
- Electrical Check: The electrical components of the HVAC system, including wiring, contacts, capacitors, and relays, are inspected for proper functioning. Loose connections are tightened, and damaged components are replaced as necessary to prevent electrical issues.
- Thermostat Calibration: The thermostat is calibrated to ensure accurate temperature readings and proper communication with the HVAC system. The technician may also check and adjust thermostat settings for optimal comfort and energy efficiency.
- Airflow Check: The airflow through the vents is checked to ensure proper distribution of cooled air throughout the home. Technician will also check your air filter.
- Safety Inspection: The technician performs a safety inspection to check for any potential hazards, such as electrical issues, refrigerant leaks, or combustion problems (if applicable).
- Performance Testing: After completing the maintenance tasks, the technician conducts performance tests to verify that the HVAC system is operating efficiently and meeting temperature and humidity control requirements.
