Routine yearly maintenance will:
- Reduce Component Failure.
- Identify potential problems so you can have them repaired before the high demand of peak seasons.
During routine preventive maintenance, we will:
- Check your thermostat settings to ensure the cooling and heating system keeps you comfortable when you are home and saves energy while you are away. Programmable thermostats are highly recommended.
- Tighten all electrical connections and measure voltage and current on motors. Faulty electrical connections can cause unsafe operation of your system and reduce the life of major components. Common electrical components include: printed circuit boards, disconnect boxes, contactors, capacitors, transformers, relays, switches, fan motors, compressors, etc.
- Lubricate all moving parts. Parts that lack lubrication cause friction in motors and increase the amount of electricity you use.
- Check and inspect the condensate drain in your central air conditioner, furnace, and/or heat pump (when in cooling mode). A plugged drain can cause water damage in the house and affect indoor humidity levels.
- Check controls of your system to ensure proper and safe operation. Check the starting cycle of the equipment to ensure the system starts, operates, and shuts off properly.
- Inspect your unit’s evaporator and condenser air-conditioning coils. Dirty coils reduce your system’s ability to cool your home and cause the system to run longer, increasing energy costs and reducing the life of your equipment.
- Check your central air conditioner’s refrigerant level and adjust if necessary. Too much or too little refrigerant will make your system less efficient, increasing energy costs and reducing the life of your equipment.
- Clean and adjust blower components to provide proper system airflow for greater comfort levels. Airflow problems can reduce your system’s efficiency by up to 15 percent.
