Why Your HVAC System Deserves Some TLC

As a homeowner, you might not give much thought to your heating and cooling system until it stops working. However, regular maintenance of your HVAC system can provide numerous benefits that go beyond just keeping your home comfortable. At Home Energy Center, we’ve been your local heating & cooling contractor for over 40 years, and we’ve seen firsthand how proper care can make a significant difference.

The Advantages of Regular HVAC Maintenance

  • Improved Energy Efficiency: A well-maintained system runs more efficiently, consuming less energy and saving you money on utility bills.
  • Extended Equipment Lifespan: Regular check-ups can help identify and address small issues before they become major problems, potentially adding years to your system’s life.
  • Better Air Quality: Clean filters and components mean cleaner air circulating throughout your home, benefiting your health and wellbeing.
  • Consistent Comfort: A properly maintained system is less likely to break down, ensuring your home stays comfortable year-round.

What Does HVAC Maintenance Involve?

Typical maintenance tasks include:

  1. Cleaning or replacing air filters
  2. Checking and adjusting thermostat settings
  3. Inspecting and cleaning condenser and evaporator coils
  4. Lubricating moving parts
  5. Checking refrigerant levels

At Home Energy Center, we recommend scheduling maintenance twice a year – once before the heating season and once before the cooling season. This ensures your system is ready to handle the demands of extreme temperatures.

Don’t wait until your system breaks down to give it attention. Invest in regular maintenance and enjoy the benefits of a more efficient, reliable, and long-lasting HVAC system. Contact us today to schedule your next maintenance appointment!
