Groundhog Day can be more than a fun holiday predicting the rest of winter; have you ever considered that it’s also a good time of year to schedule routine maintenance for your HVAC system? At Vogts Heating & Air, 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 is a prime moment for an HVAC checkup appointment.

The Best Time to Plan Your HVAC Maintenance Service

As Groundhog Day marks the potential for spring, it's also an ideal time to take a look at your furnace. For example, brutal winter weather can put considerable wear on important parts of the system. Staying on top of routine HVAC maintenance gives a professional HVAC technician a chance to help you decide if 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 annually will offer better results. One should be before spring with the other in autumn.

Essentials for Your HVAC Maintenance Checklist

Routine maintenance appointments are essential for ensuring your HVAC system operates with optimum efficiency. A detailed inspection and cleaning process gives our technicians adequate time to verify that 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: Maintaining balance of airflow and filtration is critical, which means periodically cleaning or replacing your air filters. If your system has lost any refrigerant, we'll replenish the supply and locate the source of the leak.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Flushing out the drainage system ensures things running smoothly and avoids water damage.
  • Reviewing electrical connections and safety features: Double checking that the wiring and software features are in good working order is vital. This avoids fires and preserves smooth operation.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—averting problems before they happen. This kind of proactive service from experienced professionals can offer your heating and cooling systems the optimal opportunity for maintaining peak condition.
