Why You Need To Schedule Spring HVAC Maintenance

August 23, 2023

Spring HVAC maintenance should be a priority for every homeowner this time of year. Taking care of the HVAC system will ensure the system is well-equipped to take care of the home, effectively cooling the home once the summer heat sets in. Here are a few more reasons why homeowners should schedule spring HVAC maintenance.

1. Save money over time.

A professional inspection conducted by a licensed HVAC technician will help identify minor issues before they turn into serious and expensive problems. A licensed technician can also provide helpful tips to increase system efficiency and cut energy costs.

2. Keep the system working properly.

During an HVAC maintenance visit, the technician will check refrigerant levels, look for leaks, lubricate moving parts, replace the air filter, measure the airflow through the evaporator coil, and check belts for tightness. Trained technicians know what to look for and will ensure the system is working properly.

3. Enjoy improved indoor air quality.

Levels of pollutants are higher indoors, yet that is where Americans spend most of their time. This is why it’s so important to take care of the HVAC system. Replacing the air filter is crucial to minimizing symptoms of allergies and respiratory disorders. A dirty or clogged air filter makes it difficult for clean air to pass through, forcing the system to work harder than necessary and driving up energy costs.

4. Greater comfort.

A well-functioning HVAC system will ensure the family is comfortable indoors once the summer heat rolls around. The ability of the HVAC system to quickly and efficiently cool or heat the home to the temperature set on the thermostat will depend on how well the system is maintained.

5. Discover it’s time for an upgrade.

Sometimes it takes a professional service call to find out it’s time for a new system. Expensive repairs and frequent breakdowns could also indicate that a newer system could be the cost-effective solution.
