Maximize Efficiency & Prolong Life with Preventative Maintenance
Benefits of Routine Maintenance
1
Lower Energy Bills
You might assume that since the equipment is heating or cooling your home without any problems that everything is good-to-go. But have you looked at your energy bills lately? Have you noticed a gradual increase in your bills?
A neglected HVAC system slowly loses its ability to keep your home comfortable with the same efficiency it did. HVAC systems consume less energy after receiving maintenance, just like a car gets better gas mileage after a tune up.
2
Fewer Repairs
Calling for a tune-up could help catch problems before they become bigger or you lose heating or cooling during the wrong time of the year.
For example, a fraying belt could result in strange operating noises. If a technician notices the fraying belt before it breaks, you can avoid the expensive repair from a snapped belt whipping around inside the system.
It's incredibly inconvenient and uncomfortable when equipment breaks down on a 100+ degree summer afternoon or frigid winter night - when you need your HVAC system most – maintenance greatly diminishes the chances of this happening.
3
Safety and Longevity
Air conditioners, furnaces and other HVAC equipment perform better when it's regularly serviced and cleaned. One bad part can cause a domino effect that causes the entire system to malfunction or quit working. Regular maintenance can prevent problems and add years of life to your unit.
​
A failing HVAC system can endanger your family. If the furnace develops a crack in the heat exchanger, carbon monoxide gas escapes and poisons the air you breathe. An electric HVAC system can develop a short circuit, becoming a fire hazard if ignored. Your family's safety is worth the annual fee for a preventive maintenance agreement.​
