Groundhog Day isn't just about predicting the weather; have you thought about the fact that it’s also a good time of year to perform a checkup for your HVAC system? At Air Temperature Control, 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 maintenance visit.

When You Should Schedule Routine HVAC Maintenance

As Groundhog Day marks a potential shift in seasons, it's also an ideal time to check your heating system. For example, constant freezing temperatures can put significant stress on key furnace components. Keeping up with routine HVAC maintenance gives an experienced HVAC professional a chance to determine whether your furnace needs some TLC.

Using Groundhog Day as your maintenance reminder also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system before temperatures start to rise. In fact, sticking with two maintenance appointments each year will offer better results. One should be before spring with the other in fall.

Must-Do Maintenance Tasks for Your HVAC System

Routine maintenance visits are crucial for ensuring your HVAC system operates with optimum efficiency. A detailed inspection and cleaning process gives our technicians the time they need to ensure everything is in good condition. During a visit, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will carry out can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replacing any lost coolant: Ensuring the right balance of airflow and filtration is critical, which means a consistent schedule of cleaning or replacing your air filters. If your system has leaked refrigerant, we'll restore the supply and find the problem.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Cleaning the drainage system ensures things running smoothly and helps prevent water damage.
  • Checking electrical connections and safety features: Confirming that the wiring and software features are working correctly is crucial. This helps prevent fires and ensures smooth operation.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—averting problems before they occur. This kind of proactive service from experienced professionals can provide your heating and cooling systems the optimal opportunity for maintaining peak condition.
