A tune-up is the upkeep of a system that works optimally. This does not mean that modifications should not be made to improve their operation, but adjustments are proactive and preventive, while diagnoses are usually a reaction to a specific issue. HVAC adjustments are planned maintenance of your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems. They consist of an inspection and maintenance service that is carried out twice a year. Having an HVAC tune-up service done by a professional is essential for keeping your heating and cooling system running efficiently and reliably.
It can help prevent costly repairs down the road and ensure that your system is running at peak performance. When you call to have your HVAC system serviced by a professional, these are some of the services you can expect an experienced, licensed technician to provide while you are in your home. The technician will inspect all components of the system, including the thermostat settings, ductwork for any leaks or blockages, blower motor and fan belt for wear and tear, condensate drain line for clogs or blockages, refrigerant levels, evaporator coil for dirt or debris buildup, and all electrical connections for corrosion or loose connections. The technician will also check all safety devices such as smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors. The technician will also clean all components of the system. This includes cleaning the condenser coils, evaporator coils, blower motor and fan belt, ductwork for any dust or debris buildup, and all electrical connections.
The technician will also lubricate all moving parts of the system to ensure proper operation. Finally, the technician will perform any necessary repairs or replacements. This includes replacing worn or damaged parts such as filters, belts, motors, and other components. The technician may also recommend additional services such as duct sealing or insulation to improve energy efficiency. When you install a new heating, ventilation and air conditioning system, or even when you move to a home with an existing heating, ventilation and air conditioning system, it's an investment that will last for many years. As long as you make your annual adjustments, you don't have to worry about your air conditioning system expiring before the date indicated by the manufacturer.
Now is the time to have your HVAC system serviced if you haven't done so in a while.
