Groundhog Day can be more than a fun holiday predicting the rest of winter; have you ever considered that it’s also a good time of year to perform a checkup for your HVAC system? At Enertek Air Conditioning & Heating, our team of certified experts can keep your heating and cooling system in optimal condition. It just so happens that this time of year can be a sweet spot for an HVAC maintenance visit.

When You Should Schedule Routine HVAC Maintenance

As Groundhog Day marks the potential for spring, it's also an ideal time to check your heating system. For example, single-digit temperatures can put considerable wear on key furnace components. Scheduling routine HVAC maintenance gives an experienced HVAC professional a chance to see if your furnace needs some TLC.

Using Groundhog Day as your maintenance reminder also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system before the busy summer season. In fact, sticking with two maintenance appointments every year will offer lasting 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 efficiently for many years. A detailed inspection and cleaning routine allows our technicians plenty of time to verify that everything is in working order. On a service call, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will carry out can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replenishing lost coolant: Keeping a healthy balance of airflow and filtration is essential, which means a consistent schedule of cleaning or switching out the air filters. If your system has lost any refrigerant, we'll refill the supply and locate the problem.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Flushing out the drainage system ensures things running smoothly and minimize the risk of water damage.
  • Inspecting electrical connections and safety features: Making sure that the wiring and software features are working correctly is crucial. This avoids fires and ensures smooth operation.

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