Groundhog Day can be more than a fun holiday predicting the rest of winter; have you thought about the fact that it’s also a great opportunity to perform a checkup for your HVAC system? At Watts Electric & AC, our team of certified experts can keep your heating and cooling system in optimal condition. It just so happens that this time of year can be a sweet spot for an HVAC checkup appointment.

Optimal Timing for Your HVAC Maintenance

As Groundhog Day marks the potential for spring, it's also an ideal time to take a look at your furnace. For example, constant freezing temperatures can put a lot of strain on key furnace components. Scheduling routine HVAC maintenance gives an experienced HVAC professional a chance to help you decide if your furnace needs some TLC.

Scheduling maintenance around Groundhog Day also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system just in time for summer. In fact, scheduling two maintenance appointments every year will offer the best results. One should be as winter ends with the other in fall.

Essentials for Your HVAC Maintenance Checklist

Routine maintenance visits are crucial for ensuring your HVAC system operates efficiently for many years. A comprehensive inspection and cleaning process gives our technicians plenty of time to ensure everything is in good condition. On a service call, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will complete can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replacing any lost coolant: Maintaining balance of airflow and filtration is critical, which means periodically cleaning or replacing your air filters. If your system has lost any refrigerant, we'll replenish the supply and find the source of the leak.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Cleaning the drainage system keeps things flowing like it’s supposed to and minimize the risk of water damage.
  • Reviewing electrical connections and safety features: Confirming that the wiring and software features are functioning properly is vital. This reduces the risk of fires and maintains your system's reliability.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—preventing problems before they happen. Such proactive service from our professionals can provide your heating and cooling systems the best chance for maintaining peak condition.
