Steps That Should Be Covered with Your Home HVAC Tune-Up

You count on your HVAC system for home comfort throughout the year. The last thing you want is for the AC to shut down on a scorching summer day or the heater to malfunction on a cold winter night. The best approach to keep your heating and cooling system from breaking is to arrange for a regular HVAC inspection with Parker Pearce Service Experts 

Why Does My HVAC System Require Maintenance? 

Your HVAC system sits behind ceilings and floors, so it’s not hard to forget about it. However, a neglected system is likely to work less efficiently, malfunction more regularly, and come to the end of its working life more quickly. 

The point of an HVAC tune-up is to keep your furnace functioning properly throughout the year. 

In the process, you can potentially: 

  • Reduce your heating and cooling costs 
  • Have fewer costly repairs 
  • Add years to your system’s life

Besides that, it’s required by manufacturers to keep your warranty in good standing. As a result of these pluses, the cost of maintaining 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 AC every spring and having your furnace inspected and cleaned every fall. With this timing, you prep the correct system to perform at its strongest in the approaching cooling or heating season.
