The Importance of Spring HVAC Maintenance

6 HVAC Maintenance Tips to Get Your Home Ready for Spring | AirXperts

The arrival of the spring season also means it’s time for spring HVAC maintenance! The most important thought to keep in mind with summer just around the corner, is how to prepare your HVAC system for the seasons to come. Total Mechanical Systems understands that is extremely important to make sure your system is kept in top condition. A well maintained system is guaranteed to have an increased lifetime.

The Benefits of Spring HVAC Maintenance

Let’s talk about the importance of heater maintenance and what benefits you may reap from keeping your HVAC system maintained.

  • Energy Savings. Saving energy is a huge factor in deciding when to replace or repair a heater, mainly because the more energy the system consumes, the more money you have to spend. So, by utilizing maintenance, you can increase the efficiency of your heater and decrease the amount of energy it consumes. Don’t believe us? Maintenance is tried and tested to provide these benefits.
  • Improved Comfort. When you sign up for heater maintenance, you’re also letting a professional technician make some minor tweaks and adjustments to allow the system to heat your home better. Whether it’s replacing a belt, tightening a few screws, or lubricating a ball bearing, these improvements can help your home feel more comfortable.
  • Extended Lifespan. Everyone wants their heater to last as long as possible, especially well into the second decade of their ownership. However, you’re never going to reach this point without routine maintenance once a year. Maintenance is proven to extend the lifespan of your heating system, giving you the go-ahead every year by a professional technician that there’s nothing wrong with it.
  • Safety. For those of us with a gas furnace, making sure your system runs safely is paramount to any other issue. If your carbon monoxide alarm is constantly going off, or you think your heater might have a cracked heat exchanger, you’re going to need repairs. Sometimes homeowners don’t even know they need repairs, so maintenance is a great way to ensure safety by having a professional check the system once a year. Doesn’t it feel better having a pro tell you that your system is running safely, instead of just guessing?

Don’t fall into the trap of thinking that heater maintenance is optional. While it’s offered as a separate service, it really is integral to the functionality of your system. Plus, it even is required if you’ve got a heater warranty that you’re trying not to void!
