HEATING SYSTEM MAINTENANCE

You should schedule regular maintenance for your furnace once a year. We do recommend more frequent appointments for homes where someone has asthma or other breathing issues.

Finding a trusted professional, such as Home Climates, to perform your heating maintenance ensures that you get the best care. Customers appreciate the way we explain what we’ve done and any issues we notice. The maintenance appointment is generally short. Your technician will take the time to compare the look of your system to the previous year, keeping an eye out for anything that may have changed.

Our technicians focus on quality service when they visit your home. We prioritize customer care, and we want our visits to be as easy for you as possible. You can raise concerns about your heating system with our technician and get the answers you need and save you money in the long run.

AIR CONDITIONING MAINTENANCE

You should get your AC system serviced once a year. Air conditioning maintenance focuses on small improvements that can help your air conditioning run more efficiently. You will see improved airflow, which cuts down on how hard your system has to work just to cool your home.

Many people don’t realize what a difference regular maintenance can make in the efficiency of their system. Preventive services cut down on your long-term worries. Serious issues can develop when the proper maintenance doesn’t take place. When you nip problems in the bud, they won’t develop into something worse.

For instance, mechanical stress in your AC when a fan is not lubricated correctly can spark motors to burn out. Or, moisture from the evaporator coils may overflow when you fail to clear out the condensate pan. Technicians can recognize these signs of potential trouble and keep up with them each time they visit your home.

What’s Included in a Preventive HVAC Maintenance Tune Up?

You may have specific concerns that extend beyond this list, or you may realize not every item below applies to you. However, this checklist provides a terrific starting point for the tasks you should include in most regular HVAC checkups. The following items are the bare minimum our expert technicians will check when you schedule an HVAC tune up in York PA:

  • Thermostat check: This task ensures your thermostat is working correctly and providing precise control over the temperature, as well as offering accurate temperature readings. Your professionals will fix any issues they find with this system, or else confirm the thermostat is working as it should be.
  • Combustion analytics: This check ensures every control involved in the system works as it’s supposed to. Your tech will make sure the system stops, starts and performs every other function as directed with no issues.
  • Motor inspection: If any of the motors are dirty, blocked or misaligned, this will significantly reduce your unit’s efficiency. Any routine check should take the time to ensure this component is clean and free from any problems.
  • Verify gas pressure: If you have a system that runs on oil, gas or propane, this check makes sure every fuel line is connected properly, with no leaks anywhere. If the techs uncover any problems, they will promptly fix these to ensure a healthy system for another year.
  • Cleaning and replacing filters: No filter lasts forever. These naturally fill up with dust, dirt and other contaminants, and you will, therefore, need to replace them regularly with new filters. Doing so should be part of any annual checkup.
  • Cleaning intake and exhaust vents: Can the air get in and out of your HVAC system with no obstacles? If either the intake or exhaust vents are clogged or dirty, it will limit your system’s efficiency and effectiveness, as well as restricting its ability to keep your air clean. Always make sure to get these vents checked during your annual maintenance.
  • Inspect for accumulated dust and mold: Anything you don’t often handle will naturally have a buildup of dust over time. Make sure to clean this coating off your system every year to ensure the highest level of functioning. Check for mold as well, as this may limit your machine’s functionality while also indicating excessive dampness, which may be a sign of an underlying problem.

You should call in the heating and cooling professionals at least once a year to perform an annual HVAC check that ticks the items off this list, but don’t be afraid to stop there. If you notice a strange sound, smell or peculiarity in your system’s functioning, don’t hesitate to call in a professional opinion, even if it hasn’t been a year yet. Who knows what issues you might catch before they have the chance to develop into a real problem by being proactive like this? Contact us today to talk to an expert!

HVAC Tune Up FAQs

Get your service scheduled before you begin using the system daily. For your heating system, that means scheduling service in the late summer or early fall. For cooling, that means scheduling service in late winter or early spring. If you wait to book appointments, you may have to schedule a few weeks out because everyone needs service at the same time.
Yes. You can improve the efficiency of your system and reduce long-term costs when you get a seasonal maintenance plan.
We service all brands of equipment. Our experienced technicians can help with any HVAC problem that you have!
We estimate about an hour for a maintenance appointment, though sometimes they run longer if we find an issue or complication. If you need refrigerant, that also adds at least a half-hour to the appointment length.
We recommend changing your filter every three months. The filter becomes less efficient if you let it go longer, as it collects dust, dirt and allergens.
