Groundhog Day can be more than a fun holiday predicting the rest of winter; have you thought about the fact that it’s also the perfect time to perform a checkup for your HVAC system? At GV Heating & Air, 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 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 significant stress on key furnace components. Keeping up with routine HVAC maintenance gives an experienced HVAC professional a chance to help you decide if your furnace needs a tune-up.

A checkup at Groundhog Day also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system before temperatures start to rise. In fact, sticking with two maintenance appointments every year will offer the best results. One should be before spring with the other in autumn.

Must-Do Maintenance Tasks for Your HVAC System

Routine maintenance appointments are crucial for ensuring your HVAC system operates with optimum efficiency. A thorough inspection and cleaning process gives our technicians the time they need to ensure everything is in tip-top shape. During a visit, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will carry out can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replenishing lost coolant: Maintaining balance of airflow and filtration is key, which means regularly cleaning or switching out the air filters. If your system has lost any refrigerant, we'll replenish the supply and locate the problem.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Clearing the drainage system keeps things flowing like it’s supposed to and minimize the risk of water damage.
  • Inspecting electrical connections and safety features: Double checking that the wiring and software features are in good working order is crucial. This avoids fires and preserves your system's reliability.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—preventing problems before they occur. This type of proactive service from experienced professionals can offer your heating and cooling systems the best chance for peak performance.
