There’s nothing worse than going through an HVAC system failure when you need it the most. Homeowners should be sure to have their HVAC system tuned twice a year to prevent any disruption in their home’s comfort level. A residential planned maintenance program, such as the one offered by Ace Hardware Home Services, Inc., not only will prevent future problems and unwanted costs, but it also will ensure that your system is energy and cost efficient. Contact us to put your system through a routine check before the heating and cooling seasons to keep your system at peak performance.
Why Invest in a Planned Maintenance Program
- It keeps your HVAC system running efficiently year round.
- It extends the life of your system.
- Regular cleaning and calibration help save on utility bills.
- Potential problems are spotted ahead of time, or before they can worsen or become dangerous.
- You can have repairs handled before they become expensive repair bills, and avoid emergency calls.
A standard maintenance check-up up ordinarily includes the following:
- Condensate drain inspection
- System controls check
- Electrical connections check
- Moving parts lubrication
- Evaporator and condenser air conditioning coils cleaning
- Central air conditioner refrigerant level check
- Blower components cleaning and adjustment
- Gas Connections Check
As a homeowner there are two things you can do to keep your system running smoothly.
- Inspect, clean and change air filters at least once every three months, and more often during heavy-use seasons. Check your air conditioner, furnace and/or heat pump. A dirty air filter is not only energy inefficient, but can lead to early system failure.
- Check thermostat settings to ensure the equipment is only heating and cooling when you need it most, when you are home.
