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 Ameri-Tec, our team of certified experts can keep your heating and cooling system in top shape. It just so happens that this time of year is ideal for an HVAC maintenance visit.

When You Should Schedule Routine HVAC Maintenance

As Groundhog Day marks the end of the coldest part of winter, it's also an ideal time to take a look at your furnace. For example, constant freezing temperatures can put significant stress on key furnace components. Staying on top of routine HVAC maintenance gives a professional HVAC technician a chance to determine whether your furnace needs a little extra attention.

Scheduling maintenance around Groundhog Day also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system just in time for summer. In fact, sticking with two maintenance appointments every year will offer lasting results. One should be before spring with the other in fall.

Essentials for Your HVAC Maintenance Checklist

Routine maintenance tune-ups are essential for ensuring your HVAC system operates with optimum efficiency. A detailed inspection and cleaning process gives our technicians adequate time to ensure everything is in working order. On a service call, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will complete can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replacing any lost coolant: Maintaining balance of airflow and filtration is key, which means regularly cleaning or replacing your air filters. If your system has lost any refrigerant, we'll restore the supply and find the problem.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Cleaning the drainage system ensures things flowing like it’s supposed to and helps prevent water damage.
  • Inspecting electrical connections and safety features: Double checking that the wiring and software features are functioning properly is vital. This helps prevent fires and maintains your system's reliability.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—preventing problems before they arise. Such proactive service from our professionals can offer your heating and cooling systems the optimal opportunity for long-term efficiency.
