Groundhog Day isn't just about predicting the weather; have you thought about the fact that it’s also a good time of year to perform a checkup for your HVAC system? At E.B. 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 ideal for an HVAC service call.

When You Should Schedule Routine 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, constant freezing temperatures can put a lot of strain on key furnace components. Keeping up with routine HVAC maintenance gives a certified 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 annually will offer lasting results. One should be before spring with the other in autumn.

Must-Do Maintenance Tasks for Your HVAC System

Routine maintenance appointments are crucial for ensuring your HVAC system operates with optimum efficiency. A detailed inspection and cleaning process gives 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 carry out can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replacing any lost coolant: Ensuring the right balance of airflow and filtration is critical, which means regularly cleaning or replacing your air filters. If your system has leaked refrigerant, we'll refill the supply and identify the problem.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Cleaning the drainage system ensures things running smoothly and minimize the risk of water damage.
  • Checking electrical connections and safety features: Making sure that the wiring and software features are working correctly is vital. This reduces the risk of fires and preserves smooth operation.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—stopping problems before they occur. This type of proactive service from experienced professionals can give your heating and cooling systems the best chance for long-term efficiency.
