Groundhog Day can be more than a fun holiday predicting the rest of winter; have you thought about the fact that it’s also the perfect time to schedule routine maintenance for your HVAC system? At Scott Temperature, our team of certified experts can keep your heating and cooling system in optimal condition. It just so happens that this time of year can be a sweet spot for an HVAC service call.

The Best Time to Plan Your HVAC Maintenance Service

As Groundhog Day marks the end of the coldest part of winter, it's also an ideal time to take a look at your furnace. For example, brutal winter weather can put significant stress on key furnace components. Scheduling routine HVAC maintenance gives a professional HVAC technician a chance to help you decide if your furnace needs a little extra attention.

Using Groundhog Day as your maintenance reminder also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system just in time for summer. In fact, sticking with two maintenance appointments every year will offer better results. One should be as winter ends with the other in autumn.

Must-Do Maintenance Tasks for Your HVAC System

Routine maintenance visits are vital for ensuring your HVAC system operates efficiently for many years. A comprehensive inspection and cleaning process allows 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 complete can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replacing any 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 restore the supply and locate the problem.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Cleaning the drainage system ensures things flowing like it’s supposed to and helps prevent water damage.
  • Checking electrical connections and safety features: Double checking that the wiring and software features are functioning properly is vital. This avoids fires and preserves your system's reliability.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—preventing problems before they occur. This type of proactive service from our professionals can offer your heating and cooling systems the best chance for peak performance.
