Groundhog Day isn't just about predicting the weather; have you thought about the fact that it’s also the perfect time to schedule routine maintenance for your HVAC system? At Struven Heating & Cooling, our team of certified experts can keep your heating and cooling system in excellent working order. It just so happens that this time of year is ideal for an HVAC maintenance visit.

The Best Time to Plan Your HVAC Maintenance Service

As Groundhog Day marks the end of the coldest part of winter, it's also an ideal time to check your heating system. For example, constant freezing temperatures can put significant stress on key furnace components. Scheduling routine HVAC maintenance gives a professional HVAC technician a chance to determine whether your furnace needs some TLC.

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 each year will offer the best results. One should be before spring with the other in fall.

Key Items to Include in Your HVAC Checkup

Routine maintenance tune-ups are crucial for ensuring your HVAC system operates with optimum efficiency. A comprehensive inspection and cleaning process allows our technicians adequate time to verify that everything is in tip-top shape. During a visit, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will perform can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replacing any lost coolant: Keeping a healthy balance of airflow and filtration is critical, which means periodically cleaning or replacing your air filters. If your system has leaked refrigerant, we'll replenish the supply and find the problem.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Flushing out the drainage system keeps things flowing like it’s supposed to and minimize the risk of water damage.
  • Inspecting electrical connections and safety features: Double checking that the wiring and software features are functioning properly is imperative. This helps prevent fires and preserves smooth operation.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—preventing problems before they occur. Such proactive service from our professionals can give your heating and cooling systems the best chance for maintaining peak condition.
