Groundhog Day isn't just about predicting the weather; have you thought about the fact that it’s also a great opportunity to request a tune-up for your HVAC system? At Everest Heating & Cooling, our team of certified experts can keep your heating and cooling system in optimal condition. It just so happens that this time of year is ideal for an HVAC maintenance visit.

Optimal Timing for Your HVAC Maintenance

As Groundhog Day marks the potential for spring, it's also an ideal time to check your heating system. For example, constant freezing temperatures can put significant stress on important parts of the system. Keeping up with routine HVAC maintenance gives a certified technician a chance to help you decide if your furnace needs a little extra attention.

Scheduling maintenance around Groundhog Day also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system before the busy summer season. In fact, the recommended schedule of two maintenance appointments annually will offer better results. One should be before spring with the other in autumn.

Essentials for Your HVAC Maintenance Checklist

Routine maintenance visits are essential for ensuring your HVAC system operates with optimum efficiency. A comprehensive inspection and cleaning process allows our technicians adequate time to verify that everything is in working order. On a service call, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will perform can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replenishing lost coolant: Ensuring the right balance of airflow and filtration is critical, which means periodically cleaning or switching out the air filters. If your system has leaked refrigerant, we'll replenish the supply and identify the problem.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Cleaning the drainage system ensures things flowing like it’s supposed to and avoids water damage.
  • Checking electrical connections and safety features: Making sure that the wiring and software features are working correctly is imperative. This avoids fires and maintains your system's reliability.

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