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 Ohler & Holzhauer Inc., our team of certified experts can keep your heating and cooling system in top shape. It just so happens that this time of year is a prime moment for an HVAC maintenance visit.

The Best Time to Plan Your HVAC Maintenance Service

As Groundhog Day marks the end of the coldest part of winter, it's also an ideal time to take a look at your furnace. For example, brutal winter weather can put considerable wear on key furnace components. Scheduling routine HVAC maintenance gives a professional HVAC technician a chance to determine whether your furnace needs some TLC.

Using Groundhog Day as your maintenance reminder also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system just in time for summer. In fact, the recommended schedule of two maintenance appointments each year will offer lasting results. One should be as winter ends with the other in autumn.

Key Items to Include in Your HVAC Checkup

Routine maintenance tune-ups are crucial for ensuring your HVAC system operates with optimum efficiency. A thorough inspection and cleaning routine gives our technicians plenty of time to make sure everything is in good condition. During a visit, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will carry out can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replenishing lost coolant: Ensuring the right balance of airflow and filtration is key, which means periodically cleaning or switching out the air filters. If your system has leaked refrigerant, we'll replenish the supply and find the source of the leak.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Clearing the drainage system keeps things running smoothly and helps prevent water damage.
  • Checking electrical connections and safety features: Confirming that the wiring and software features are working correctly is imperative. This reduces the risk of fires and maintains smooth operation.

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