The Importance of HVAC Maintenance
We all know the importance of regular maintenance for our cars; you wouldn't go for more than a year without getting an oil change. Similarly, you shouldn't ignore the maintenance needed for your heating and air conditioning equipment!
What Does HVAC Maintenance Consist Of?
Your HVAC equipment needs a checkup every so often. Usually, we recommend a spring tune-up for your air conditioning unit and a fall tune-up for your heating equipment. This tune-up consists of:
Checking the Cooling Equipment For:
- Thermostat operations
- Condenser drain
- Indoor blower motor
- Condition of the filter
- Condenser coil
- AMP draw compressor
- Refrigerant levels
- Pressure and super heat
- Electrical wiring
Checking the Heating Equipment For:
- Thermostat operation
- Burners and compartment
- Flame sensor
- Flue pipe inspection
- Safety controls
- Ignition and flame
- Indoor blower motor (oil if necessary)
- Combustion motor fan
Fall is a great time to get your heating unit checked for optimum usage; otherwise, you may find yourself without heat once winter hits.
Save Money on your HVAC Equipment
Not only does regular HVAC maintenance ensure you will not be without heat or air, but it can also help you save money in the long run. By keeping up with your HVAC maintenance, you are preventing any big breakdowns that could cost a lot of money to repair and even more to replace!
