Avoid unexpected issues and costly repairs with your heating and cooling system by having an annual service performed by an HVAC specialist. HVAC specialists are at their busiest here in Columbia during the summer and winter, so consider scheduling your annual service in the spring or fall.
Here’s what they typically do during the service checkup:
• Check thermostat settings and system controls.
• Tighten electrical connections and lubricate parts
.
• Inspect condensate drain for clogs that can cause water damage and increase humidity levels.
As part of your annual service, your HVAC specialist will also check your cooling system and:
• Clean coils on your system’s evaporator and condenser to reduce energy costs.
• Check refrigerant level, blower components, and connections to keep your system running efficiently.
Finally, for your heating system, the specialist will check all gas (or oil) connections, gas pressure, burner combustion and heat exchanger to prevent fire hazards, health problems, and unsafe or inefficient operation.
Between annual services, you should clean or replace your air filter monthly to keep your system operating at its fullest potential. If you don’t know how to do this, your HVAC specialist can show you how.
