A Tune-Up is Vital for the Best Performance

An HVAC tune up is important for the longevity of your heating and cooling system. Regular, routine check ups will help you avoid expensive repairs that can result from ignoring your HVAC system throughout the year.

It’s especially important before major heating and cooling seasons, when the HVAC system in your home will get a major workout.

New Filters

Filters will stop dirt and dust from clogging your system. When you have new, clean filters, your system will run more efficiently. Dirt and dust will cause the system to become sluggish and can eventually cause it to break.

Clean filters keep the air in your home fresher too. The air conditioning system’s coil can become frozen when there is a dirty filter, which will cause the system to stop producing cool air.

Inspection

During a tune up, a technician will inspect wires, contacts and relays to be sure they are working properly. Parts of the system might need tightening and wires might need to be replaced if they are frayed or worn.

The condenser needs to be inspected and cleaned as well as the fan and blades. The fan and blades might need to be lubricated as well. The evaporator coil has to be inspected each year and cleaned of all dirt and dust. The drain has to be clear for the system to work properly.

Pressure, Levels and Calibration

The air conditioning system has a coolant that needs to be checked every year before the start of the cooling season. The level needs to be checked, but the pressure needs to be checked also.

The levels and pressure work together to cool your home efficiently. The thermostat will need to be calibrated to ensure that it’s working correctly to provide the right amount of cooling for the comfort of the home.

When the HVAC system has been inspected and maintained each season, you’ll avoid costly repairs. The technician can catch problems and failures before they become a major drain on your wallet.

It’s vital to stay current with the state of your system so problems don’t become expensive repairs.
