Steps That Should Be Covered with Your Home HVAC Tune-Up
You depend on your HVAC system for home comfort all year round. The last thing you want is for the AC to break down on a scorching summer day or the heat to stop working on a freezing winter night. The smartest method to keep your heating and cooling system from breaking is to organize an annual HVAC maintenance call with Stevenson Service Experts
Why Does My HVAC System Have to Have Tune-Ups?
Your HVAC system hides behind ceilings and floors, so it’s easy to forget about it. However, an ignored system is liable to run less efficiently, malfunction more regularly, and meet the end of its life cycle more quickly.
The reason for an HVAC tune-up is to keep your furnace running well all season long.
In the process, you can likely:
- Lower your energy bills
- Face a smaller number of costly repairs
- Add years to your system’s life
Besides that, it’s required by manufacturers to keep your warranty active. As a result of these benefits, the cost of protecting your HVAC system is an investment that pays for itself.
It’s recommended to arrange maintenance yearly for each HVAC system. This means requesting an appointment for your air conditioning every spring and having your furnace inspected and cleaned every fall. With this timing, you prep the correct system to perform at its peak in the coming cooling or heating season.
