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 schedule routine maintenance for your HVAC system? At Freed Heating & Air Conditioning, our team of certified experts can keep your heating and cooling system in excellent working order. It just so happens that this time of year is ideal for an HVAC service call.

Optimal Timing for Your HVAC Maintenance

As Groundhog Day marks a potential shift in seasons, it's also an ideal time to check your heating system. For example, single-digit temperatures can put significant stress 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.

Scheduling maintenance around Groundhog Day also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system just in time for summer. In fact, the recommended schedule of two maintenance appointments every year will offer the best results. One should be as winter ends with the other in autumn.

Essentials for Your HVAC Maintenance Checklist

Routine maintenance visits are crucial for ensuring your HVAC system operates efficiently for many years. A thorough inspection and cleaning routine allows our technicians plenty of time to verify that everything is in good condition. On a service call, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will perform can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replacing any lost coolant: Ensuring the right balance of airflow and filtration is key, which means a consistent schedule of cleaning or switching out the air filters. If your system has leaked refrigerant, we'll restore the supply and identify the source of the leak.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Cleaning the drainage system ensures things flowing like it’s supposed to and minimize the risk of water damage.
  • Inspecting electrical connections and safety features: Confirming that the wiring and software features are functioning properly is vital. This helps prevent fires and preserves your system's reliability.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—stopping problems before they happen. This type of proactive service from our professionals can provide your heating and cooling systems the best chance for maintaining peak condition.
