Groundhog Day isn't just about predicting the weather; have you ever considered that it’s also a good time of year to perform a checkup for your HVAC system? At LTS Plumbing & Heating Inc., our team of certified experts can keep your heating and cooling system in optimal condition. It just so happens that this time of year is ideal for an HVAC checkup appointment.

When You Should Schedule Routine HVAC Maintenance

As Groundhog Day marks the potential for spring, it's also an ideal time to take a look at your furnace. For example, single-digit temperatures can put considerable wear on key furnace components. Staying on top of routine HVAC maintenance gives a professional HVAC technician a chance to help you decide if your furnace needs some TLC.

A checkup at Groundhog Day also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system before the busy summer season. In fact, the recommended schedule of two maintenance appointments annually will offer better results. One should be as winter ends with the other in autumn.

Key Items to Include in Your HVAC Checkup

Routine maintenance tune-ups are vital for ensuring your HVAC system operates with optimum efficiency. A thorough inspection and cleaning process gives our technicians plenty of time to ensure 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 critical, which means regularly cleaning or replacing your air filters. If your system has leaked refrigerant, we'll restore the supply and find the problem.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Flushing out the drainage system ensures things running smoothly and minimize the risk of water damage.
  • Checking electrical connections and safety features: Confirming that the wiring and software features are in good working order is imperative. This avoids fires and ensures smooth operation.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—averting problems before they happen. This kind of proactive service from experienced professionals can provide your heating and cooling systems the best chance for peak performance.
