Groundhog Day isn't just about predicting the weather; have you ever considered that it’s also the perfect time to perform a checkup for your HVAC system? At Ameri-Tec, our team of certified experts can keep your heating and cooling system in top shape. It just so happens that this time of year can be a sweet spot 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 take a look at your furnace. For example, single-digit temperatures can put a lot of strain on key furnace components. Keeping up with routine HVAC maintenance gives an experienced HVAC professional a chance to determine whether your furnace needs a little extra attention.

Scheduling maintenance around Groundhog Day also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system before temperatures start to rise. In fact, the recommended schedule of two maintenance appointments every year will offer lasting results. One should be before spring with the other in fall.

Essentials for Your HVAC Maintenance Checklist

Routine maintenance visits are essential for ensuring your HVAC system operates with optimum efficiency. A thorough inspection and cleaning process allows our technicians the time they need to verify that everything is in working order. On a service call, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will carry out can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replacing any lost coolant: Ensuring the right balance of airflow and filtration is critical, which means a consistent schedule of cleaning or replacing your air filters. If your system has leaked refrigerant, we'll refill the supply and find the problem.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Flushing out the drainage system ensures things running smoothly and helps prevent water damage.
  • Reviewing electrical connections and safety features: Making sure that the wiring and software features are working correctly is imperative. This helps prevent fires and maintains your system's reliability.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—averting problems before they happen. Such proactive service from experienced professionals can offer your heating and cooling systems the greatest potential for long-term efficiency.
