Groundhog Day isn't just about predicting the weather; have you thought about the fact that it’s also a great opportunity to perform a checkup for your HVAC system? At JW Brager Heating and 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 ideal for an HVAC service call.

The Best Time to Plan Your HVAC Maintenance Service

As Groundhog Day marks the end of the coldest part of winter, it's also an ideal time to take a look at your furnace. For example, constant freezing temperatures can put significant stress on important parts of the system. Scheduling routine HVAC maintenance gives a professional HVAC technician a chance to determine whether your furnace needs some TLC.

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

Must-Do Maintenance Tasks for Your HVAC System

Routine maintenance appointments are crucial for ensuring your HVAC system operates efficiently for many years. A thorough inspection and cleaning process gives our technicians the time they need to make sure everything is in good condition. During a visit, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will perform can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replacing any lost coolant: Keeping a healthy balance of airflow and filtration is key, which means a consistent schedule of cleaning or switching out the air filters. If your system has lost any refrigerant, we'll replenish the supply and locate the source of the leak.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Clearing the drainage system ensures things flowing like it’s supposed to and avoids water damage.
  • Checking electrical connections and safety features: Making sure that the wiring and software features are working correctly is imperative. This reduces the risk of fires and preserves smooth operation.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—stopping problems before they arise. This kind of proactive service from experienced professionals can offer your heating and cooling systems the greatest potential for maintaining peak condition.
