Groundhog Day can be more than a fun holiday predicting the rest of winter; have you ever considered that it’s also a great opportunity to request a tune-up for your HVAC system? At James Heating & A/C, 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 a prime moment for an HVAC maintenance visit.

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, constant freezing temperatures can put a lot of strain on key furnace components. Scheduling routine HVAC maintenance gives an experienced HVAC professional a chance to determine whether 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 lasting 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 essential for ensuring your HVAC system operates with optimum efficiency. A comprehensive inspection and cleaning process gives our technicians the time they need to make sure everything is in working order. During a visit, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will complete can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replacing any lost coolant: Keeping a healthy balance of airflow and filtration is key, which means regularly cleaning or switching out the air filters. If your system has lost any refrigerant, we'll refill the supply and identify the problem.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Cleaning the drainage system ensures things running smoothly and avoids water damage.
  • Checking electrical connections and safety features: Making sure that the wiring and software features are functioning properly is imperative. This helps prevent fires and maintains smooth operation.

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