Groundhog Day isn't just about predicting the weather; have you thought about the fact that it’s also the perfect time to perform a checkup for your HVAC system? At Kilbourne Heating & AC, our team of certified experts can keep your heating and cooling system in excellent working order. It just so happens that this time of year can be a sweet spot for an HVAC maintenance visit.

Optimal Timing for Your HVAC Maintenance

As Groundhog Day marks a potential shift in seasons, it's also an ideal time to check your heating system. For example, brutal winter weather can put significant stress on key furnace components. Staying on top of routine HVAC maintenance gives a professional HVAC technician a chance to see if your furnace needs some TLC.

A checkup at Groundhog Day also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system before the busy summer season. In fact, sticking with two maintenance appointments each year will offer the best results. One should be as winter ends with the other in fall.

Must-Do Maintenance Tasks for Your HVAC System

Routine maintenance visits are essential for ensuring your HVAC system operates efficiently for many years. A comprehensive inspection and cleaning process allows our technicians the time they need to make sure everything is in good condition. On a service call, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will perform can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replacing any lost coolant: Keeping a healthy balance of airflow and filtration is essential, which means periodically cleaning or switching out the air filters. If your system has lost any refrigerant, we'll restore the supply and locate the problem.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Clearing the drainage system ensures things running smoothly and helps prevent water damage.
  • Reviewing electrical connections and safety features: Double checking that the wiring and software features are in good working order is crucial. This avoids fires and maintains smooth operation.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—preventing problems before they occur. This kind of proactive service from our professionals can give your heating and cooling systems the best chance for peak performance.
