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 Hix Air Conditioning Service, 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 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 take a look at your furnace. For example, brutal winter weather can put significant stress on important parts of the system. Staying on top of routine HVAC maintenance gives an experienced HVAC professional a chance to see if your furnace needs a little extra attention.

Scheduling maintenance around Groundhog Day also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system before temperatures start to rise. In fact, the recommended schedule of two maintenance appointments every year will offer the best results. One should be before spring with the other in fall.

Essentials for Your HVAC Maintenance Checklist

Routine maintenance visits are vital for ensuring your HVAC system operates with optimum efficiency. A comprehensive inspection and cleaning process allows our technicians plenty of time to verify that everything is in working order. 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 switching out the air filters. If your system has lost any refrigerant, we'll restore the supply and identify the problem.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Clearing the drainage system keeps things flowing like it’s supposed to and avoids water damage.
  • Reviewing electrical connections and safety features: Confirming that the wiring and software features are in good working order is crucial. This avoids fires and ensures smooth operation.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—preventing problems before they occur. Such proactive service from experienced professionals can provide your heating and cooling systems the optimal opportunity for maintaining peak condition.
