Groundhog Day isn't just about predicting the weather; have you ever considered that it’s also a great opportunity to request a tune-up 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 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 take a look at your furnace. For example, brutal winter weather can put a lot of strain on key furnace components. Keeping up with routine HVAC maintenance gives an experienced HVAC professional a chance to help you decide if your furnace needs a little extra attention.

A checkup at Groundhog Day also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system before temperatures start to rise. In fact, the recommended schedule of two maintenance appointments every year will offer lasting results. One should be as winter ends with the other in fall.

Must-Do Maintenance Tasks for Your HVAC System

Routine maintenance appointments are essential for ensuring your HVAC system operates efficiently for many years. A detailed inspection and cleaning routine gives our technicians the time they need to ensure everything is in tip-top shape. During a visit, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will perform can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replenishing lost coolant: Ensuring the right balance of airflow and filtration is essential, which means periodically cleaning or switching out the air filters. If your system has lost any refrigerant, we'll refill the supply and find the problem.
  • 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: Double checking that the wiring and software features are working correctly is imperative. This reduces the risk of fires and maintains smooth operation.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—stopping problems before they occur. Such proactive service from experienced professionals can give your heating and cooling systems the best chance for peak performance.
