Preventive Maintenance

We know it’s impossible to be prepared for every possible situation, but when it comes to your HVAC systems, preventative maintenance can be your biggest ally.  Not only will proper maintenance keep your systems running smoothly, but it will save you money on utilities and costly repairs down the line.  During regular maintenance, our experts use common warning signs to detect potentially larger problems.  By addressing these problems early on, pricey repairs and replacements can be avoided.  Whether it be a cleaning or another issue, our HVAC company works hard increase the efficiency of our clients’ heating and cooling systems. 

Warning Signs
Though nothing beats our professionals coming to a home or workplace and using their expertise to assess a problem, there are some common warning signs that our clients use to detect issues.  A musty smell coming from heating or cooling units can be indicative of a mold build up. Likewise units blowing out lukewarm air is often a sign that the system needs to be cleaned out.  Unequal temperatures in rooms can also be a sign that something isn’t working right.  On a measurable scale, a steadily increasing utility bill can often show that an issue in your heating or cooling system is getting progressively worse. 

Efficiency
Having an efficient cooling and heating system can have a positive impact on businesses or homes in a number of ways.  In addition to making sure they’re comfortable, it saves money.  In the average American household around twelve percent of home energy expenses can be attributed to air conditioning costs.  Of course this is impacted by how cold the rooms are kept, but unseen, but very controllable factors such as a faulty system or leak in the ducts means cold air isn’t getting where it’s supposed to be. Similarly, blockage on the outdoor condensing unit can make a system work harder than it has to, leading to increased costs.  

System cleaning
With regular preventative maintenance heating and cooling systems will continue to perform efficiently for years to come.  However, dirt naturally gets into units which is why system cleaning is so important.  Things such as mold build up are not only impacting the system’s performance but can also lead to health issues.  Dirty filters need to be cleaned regularly, and a dirty condensing unit outside of the home can lead to bigger problems down the road.   One of the best ways to avoid these problems is to make sure systems are cleaned regularly by our professionals that get the job done, and check for other potential complications. 

Other Issues
In addition to dirt and mold, there are other components of your systems that need to be checked regularly.  Our experts know which aspects are mostly likely to cause problems and make sure to check all of them when they come for a maintenance consultation.  A low refrigerant charge can cause trouble with bringing heat in during the cold months of the year.  Additionally, we make sure to do a thermostat calibration that ensures heating and cooling units are receiving the proper instructions.  We take pride in what we do and want our services to protect our clients from unnecessary expenses that come as an effect of unmaintained HVAC systems.
