Groundhog Day can be more than a fun holiday predicting the rest of winter; have you ever considered that it’s also the perfect time to perform a checkup for your HVAC system? At Central Heating & Plumbing, our team of certified experts can keep your heating and cooling system in excellent working order. It just so happens that this time of year is ideal for an HVAC maintenance visit.
Optimal Timing for Your HVAC Maintenance
As Groundhog Day marks the potential for spring, it's also an ideal time to take a look at your furnace. For example, brutal winter weather can put significant stress on key furnace components. Scheduling routine HVAC maintenance gives a certified technician a chance to determine whether your furnace needs a tune-up.
Scheduling maintenance around Groundhog Day also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system just in time for summer. In fact, sticking with two maintenance appointments every year will offer better results. One should be as winter ends with the other in fall.
Must-Do Maintenance Tasks for Your HVAC System
Routine maintenance visits are essential for ensuring your HVAC system operates efficiently for many years. A detailed inspection and cleaning process allows our technicians plenty of time to ensure everything is in working order. During a visit, 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 regularly cleaning or replacing your air filters. If your system has lost any refrigerant, we'll refill the supply and identify the source of the leak.
- Clearing the drain lines: Flushing out the drainage system ensures things flowing like it’s supposed to and helps prevent water damage.
- Inspecting electrical connections and safety features: Making sure that the wiring and software features are working correctly is imperative. This helps prevent fires and preserves smooth operation.
The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—preventing problems before they occur. This kind of proactive service from our professionals can provide your heating and cooling systems the best chance for long-term efficiency.
