Groundhog Day isn't just about predicting the weather; have you thought about the fact that it’s also a good time of year to perform a checkup for your HVAC system? At Point Heating & Cooling, our team of certified experts can keep your heating and cooling system in optimal condition. It just so happens that this time of year is ideal for an HVAC maintenance visit.

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 check your heating system. For example, brutal winter weather can put significant stress on important parts of the system. Keeping up with routine HVAC maintenance gives an experienced HVAC professional a chance to see if your furnace needs a tune-up.

A checkup at Groundhog Day also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system before the busy summer season. In fact, the recommended schedule of two maintenance appointments every year will offer the best results. One should be before spring with the other in fall.

Key Items to Include in Your HVAC Checkup

Routine maintenance tune-ups are crucial for ensuring your HVAC system operates efficiently for many years. A comprehensive inspection and cleaning routine allows our technicians adequate time to verify that everything is in working order. On a service call, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will perform can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replenishing lost coolant: Maintaining balance of airflow and filtration is key, which means regularly cleaning or replacing your air filters. If your system has lost any refrigerant, we'll restore the supply and locate the source of the leak.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Flushing out the drainage system ensures things running smoothly and minimize the risk of water damage.
  • Inspecting electrical connections and safety features: Double checking that the wiring and software features are working correctly is crucial. This helps prevent fires and ensures your system's reliability.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—preventing problems before they arise. This kind of proactive service from our professionals can offer your heating and cooling systems the optimal opportunity for maintaining peak condition.
