Groundhog Day can be more than a fun holiday predicting the rest of winter; have you ever considered that it’s also the perfect time to schedule routine maintenance for your HVAC system? At Superior Comfort Systems, 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 a prime moment for an HVAC service call.

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 important parts of the system. Scheduling routine HVAC maintenance gives an experienced HVAC professional a chance to help you decide if your furnace needs a tune-up.

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

  • Replacing the air filters or replacing any lost coolant: Maintaining balance of airflow and filtration is critical, which means periodically cleaning or replacing your air filters. If your system has lost any refrigerant, we'll restore the supply and locate the source of the leak.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Cleaning the drainage system keeps things flowing like it’s supposed to and avoids water damage.
  • Checking electrical connections and safety features: Making sure that the wiring and software features are in good working order is crucial. This avoids fires and ensures your system's reliability.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—stopping problems before they occur. This kind of proactive service from experienced professionals can provide your heating and cooling systems the optimal opportunity for long-term efficiency.
