Tasks That Should Be Included with Your Home HVAC Maintenance

You depend on your HVAC system for home comfort throughout the year. The last thing you want is for the AC to shut down on a hot summer day or the heater to malfunction on a cold winter night. The smartest approach to keep your heating and cooling system from breaking is to plan an annual HVAC inspection with Golden Seal Service Experts 

Why Does My HVAC System Need Checkups? 

Your HVAC system sits behind ceilings and floors, so it’s not hard to forget about it. However, a neglected system is likely to work less efficiently, break down more regularly, and meet the end of its working life sooner. 

The point of an HVAC tune-up is to keep your furnace functioning properly all season long. 

In the process, you can potentially: 

  • Reduce your heating and cooling costs 
  • Face less pricey repairs 
  • Add years to your system’s life

Not to mention, it’s required by manufacturers to keep your warranty in good standing. As a result of these perks, the price of maintaining your HVAC system is an investment that pays for itself. 

It’s recommended to schedule maintenance yearly for each HVAC system. This means requesting an appointment for your AC every spring and having your furnace inspected and cleaned every fall. With this timing, you ready the correct system to run at its peak in the approaching cooling or heating season.
