The Importance of Seasonal HVAC Maintenance

The condition and performance of our HVAC systems is a huge factor in providing optimum comfort for our homes.  While most systems are efficient and reliable, they do require seasonal HVAC maintenance to perform in peak seasons.  It’s no wonder why most of the emergency air conditioning calls we receive are during the first few very hot days of cooling season.  The humid, hot weather and regular triple digit temperatures in Richmond can send an HVAC system into overdrive.  If you’ve neglected to perform seasonal maintenance there’s no saying your system will keep your home and family comfortable this summer.

Preventative, seasonal maintenance is the best care for your HVAC system as well as the top solution to eliminating the inconvenience and cost of emergency repairs.  Our staff and technicians aren’t lying when they say that seasonal maintenance is the only way to ensure efficient operation and peak performance this cooling season.  Even if your system is fairly new, unless you have regular, seasonal maintenance performed, it’s likely you may never know a small problem is lurking until it becomes a larger, more costly repair.

Seasonal spring maintenance is critical to guaranteeing that your air conditioning runs efficiently this cooling season.  Don’t mistake this as a time to have heating checked as well.  Some homeowners may try to knock out maintenance on both at one time, but whichever system is checked going into its off-season will end up sitting idle for several months.  Dormancy presents a peak opportunity for problems to surface, which is why we suggest that you keep spring and fall maintenance separate.  Air conditioning maintenance is recommended in the spring, and heating should be checked in the fall.
