As the weather begins to warm, homeowners are putting away their sweaters, worrying less about having to scrape ice off the car in the morning, and contemplating turning the AC back on. However, in the time that your unit has been in hibernation, it may have developed a few issues that might hinder its performance and efficiency. With this in mind, the guide below explains some reasons to invest in springtime HVAC maintenance. 

How HVAC Maintenance Can Save You Time & Money

1. Addressing Repairs

When you schedule an appointment early in the year, technicians will assess the system and identify necessary repairs. Then, there will be plenty of time to order parts and have the technician back to fix the issue before the busy time of year.

2. Improving Efficiency

Without regular HVAC maintenance, air conditioners can become inefficient, which amps up electricity bills. A professional will replace the coolant, swap the filter, and clean the ductwork so the unit has to work less hard. This will also have the benefit of increasing the overall life span of the system.

3. Bettering Air Quality

Your ducts have likely been working all winter, moving warm air throughout the home. Getting regular ductwork cleanings will remove built-up dust, animal dander, as well as springtime contaminants, like pollen and ragweed, that can irritate allergies and trigger respiratory issues.

4. Maintaining the Warranty

If your AC system has a warranty, it likely stipulates that the unit requires regular maintenance for the guarantee to be valid. By scheduling HVAC maintenance every spring, you’ll ensure the unit is in top shape and that the warranty still stands if something happens and you need repairs later in the summer.
