Groundhog Day can be more than a fun holiday predicting the rest of winter; have you thought about the fact that it’s also a great opportunity to request a tune-up for your HVAC system? At Air Service Co., 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.

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, constant freezing temperatures can put considerable wear on key furnace components. Scheduling routine HVAC maintenance gives a certified technician a chance to determine whether your furnace needs a little extra attention.

Scheduling maintenance around Groundhog Day also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system before temperatures start to rise. In fact, scheduling two maintenance appointments annually 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 crucial for ensuring your HVAC system operates efficiently for many years. A detailed inspection and cleaning routine allows our technicians plenty of time to ensure everything is in tip-top shape. On a service call, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will complete can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replacing any lost coolant: Maintaining balance of airflow and filtration is key, which means a consistent schedule of cleaning or replacing your air filters. If your system has lost any refrigerant, we'll restore the supply and identify the source of the leak.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Cleaning the drainage system keeps things flowing like it’s supposed to and avoids water damage.
  • Reviewing electrical connections and safety features: Confirming that the wiring and software features are functioning properly is imperative. This helps prevent fires and ensures smooth operation.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—averting problems before they happen. This type of proactive service from our professionals can offer your heating and cooling systems the greatest potential for long-term efficiency.
