It's easy to forget about your home's air conditioning system when it's operating smoothly. Scheduling routine HVAC maintenance will help it stay functional and minimize the risk of an inconvenient breakdown. Here are a few reasons to book professional tuneups regularly.

Why Is HVAC Maintenance Important?

1. Lower Your Utility Bills

Slipping belts, dusty fan blades, and a hot motor will make the system work harder than it needs to. For instance, smooth blower blades circulate more air through the house than those covered in dust. Likewise, dirty evaporator coils can't release cold air efficiently.

Regular HVAC maintenance keeps these components working as efficiently as possible, so the unit uses less energy. This translates into cost savings on your monthly utility bills.

2. Maximize the Unit's Life Span

During the appointment, a technician will clean the system's interior, removing dust on the blower and motor. Wiping off the debris prevents wear from strain and keeps the motor from getting too hot.

The technician will then oil the motor to minimize friction, test and replace the belts to ensure one doesn't break, and address any minor repairs before they worsen.

3. Enjoy Better Indoor Air Quality

Scheduling HVAC maintenance and replacing the air filter removes contaminants from the system that would otherwise circulate through the house. These particles include dust, pollen, bacteria, viruses, mildew, and mold. The contaminants often cause allergy symptoms, like sneezing, coughing, runny nose, and watery eyes.
