Groundhog Day isn't just about predicting the weather; have you ever considered that it’s also a good time of year to request a tune-up for your HVAC system? At Bishop’s HVAC, 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 maintenance visit.

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, single-digit temperatures can put considerable wear on important parts of the system. Staying on top of routine HVAC maintenance gives a certified 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 before temperatures start to rise. In fact, scheduling two maintenance appointments each year will offer better results. One should be before spring with the other in fall.

Must-Do Maintenance Tasks for Your HVAC System

Routine maintenance visits are crucial for ensuring your HVAC system operates efficiently for many years. A detailed inspection and cleaning routine gives our technicians the time they need to ensure everything is in tip-top shape. During a visit, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will perform can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replenishing lost coolant: Keeping a healthy balance of airflow and filtration is essential, 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: Flushing out the drainage system ensures things running smoothly and minimize the risk of water damage.
  • Inspecting electrical connections and safety features: Confirming that the wiring and software features are in good working order is vital. This reduces the risk of fires and maintains smooth operation.

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