Spring Blossoms, spring showers, and spring cleaning. As we say goodbye to winter and welcome the warmer months, it’s time to pull out that spring to-do list and start checking things off. So what’s at the top of the list? Scheduling your spring HVAC checkup. If everything is working fine with your HVAC system, you may not think you need an inspection, but having two HVAC inspections per year for preventative maintenance can save you from expensive repairs and stress.
Why is HVAC Preventative Maintenance so Important?
It is recommended that you have your HVAC system inspected twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall. These are the best times to have your system inspected because you are getting ahead of the extreme heat or the extreme cold. Most homes use their air conditioning heavily in the summer months and heat heavily in the winter. Your HVAC system will work harder during more extreme temperatures. Since it is officially spring, you don’t want to put off an inspection just to have your air conditioning stop working in the middle of a heat wave. That’s why it is imperative to keep up with routine maintenance. A professional HVAC technician can let you know how to improve your system’s efficiency, if there are repairs that are needed, and if a tune-up is required. Routine inspections can also help you save money and prepare for future repairs or replacements.
What to Expect From an HVAC Inspection?
A professional technician will come out to inspect your HVAC system and give you recommendations on potential repairs or upgrades. During an HVAC inspection, your technician may check if your indoor or outdoor unit needs cleaning. If either unit is dirty or clogged, it can prevent your air conditioning from running efficiently. They will check the registers, vents, and ducts for blockages and recommend a cleaning if needed. Additionally, technicians can inspect drainage lines, holes, or pans for obstructions to ensure that the condensate pipe does not become clogged.

Technicians can also check refrigerant levels to see if they are optimal, test your thermostat for calibration, and let you know if it is time to replace your HVAC filter. All of these checkpoints are done to ensure that your system is not having any issues, offering comfortable temperatures, and running efficiently.
