Groundhog Day can be more than a fun holiday predicting the rest of winter; have you thought about the fact that it’s also a good time of year to perform a checkup for your HVAC system? At B & B Heating & Cooling, 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 a prime moment for an HVAC checkup appointment.

When You Should Schedule Routine HVAC Maintenance

As Groundhog Day marks a potential shift in seasons, it's also an ideal time to check your heating system. For example, constant freezing temperatures can put a lot of strain on key furnace components. Scheduling routine HVAC maintenance gives a certified technician a chance to help you decide if your furnace needs some TLC.

Using Groundhog Day as your maintenance reminder also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system before temperatures start to rise. In fact, sticking with two maintenance appointments annually will offer lasting results. One should be before spring with the other in autumn.

Must-Do Maintenance Tasks for Your HVAC System

Routine maintenance visits are vital for ensuring your HVAC system operates with optimum efficiency. A detailed inspection and cleaning process gives our technicians the time they need to verify that everything is in working order. During a visit, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will perform can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replacing any lost coolant: Maintaining balance of airflow and filtration is critical, which means a consistent schedule of cleaning or replacing your air filters. If your system has lost any refrigerant, we'll refill the supply and locate the source of the leak.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Clearing the drainage system keeps things running smoothly and helps prevent water damage.
  • Reviewing electrical connections and safety features: Confirming that the wiring and software features are in good working order is crucial. This avoids fires and maintains smooth operation.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—averting problems before they occur. Such proactive service from experienced professionals can provide your heating and cooling systems the optimal opportunity for long-term efficiency.
