Just about every home in Maryland has an HVAC system, and installing your HVAC system is a big step! But once you finish installing it, your work isn’t done. You must keep up with its maintenance to ensure that it operates at its peak performance. There are plenty of reasons to tune your HVAC system, including:
♺ Tune-ups extend the life of your HVAC system
Tune-ups are a preventative measure you can take to extend the life of your HVAC system. If parts of your system are in the process of wearing down, it’s likely that they will begin to strain other parts of the HVAC system. Over time, the strain leads to wear in the entire system, leading to full failure. This is something you might not notice, which is why a tune-up is necessary to catch the things you might miss!
♺ They can help avoid costly repairs that come from not performing tune-ups
Repairs and replacements can be expensive. By requesting a tune-up, inspectors are able to catch any wear and tear that might be taking place within your HVAC system. If this is happening, our experts will be able to catch the issue and fix it before it leads to more unnecessary repairs that could have been avoided! Of course, like any machine, HVAC systems will degrade and break down over time, but you can prolong that by maintaining its efficiency.
♺ Conserves energy and helps keep your energy bill low
Tuning your HVAC system will improve system efficiency, thus having positive impacts on your energy bill. It is a common belief that routine maintenance to systems that take up a lot of energy can help to reduce your energy bill. In the long-run, by calling to request a tune-up, you are saving your future self money!
♺ Maintains optimal efficiency
As your HVAC runs, it collects dust and debris that accumulate in coil and air filters. If left unchecked, your HVAC system can lose a percentage of its operating efficiency. In turn, this affects its performance heating and cooling your home, thus driving up your energy bill. By avoiding this domino effect, you can maintain efficiency and a stable energy bill.
♺ Improve home air quality
Your HVAC system works its hardest in the summer and winter months when you need it the most. Dust and allergens can get trapped in the system, having negative effects on the quality of the air that you are breathing in. Tune-ups can ensure that the air in your home is being filtered properly so those with seasonal allergies, asthma, and anyone who likes breathing clean air can breathe and enjoy clean indoor air.
Why You Should Tune Your HVAC System
Often times, your HVAC system is in a place where you don’t normally look, making it is easy for HVAC maintenance to slip your mind. Hopefully, you remember to request a tune-up from Burch Oil at least twice a year for optimal functioning. Don’t wait until your HVAC system has problems. An HVAC tune-up can illuminate potential problems that can cause inefficiency, poor performance, and even total system failure. As outlined above, HVAC systems should be regularly checked and tuned to increase efficiency and air quality, and decrease your energy bill.
In the months where you use your HVAC system the most, like summer and winter, it is critical to make sure your HVAC system is performing at its peak, providing you with quality air and quality service. Our expert HVAC technicians will check for blockage or leakage within the system, like:
- Fresh air intake grills
- Vent systems
- Drainage systems
In addition to checking for any blockage, our technicians will check for rust or corrosion, debris, proper motor function, correct wiring, and proper ignition of burners. Homeowners can do this at home, but only those who are knowledgeable with how HVAC systems work and all its parts and components. Homeowner action can include the small, yet important task, of sticking a vacuum nozzle into the furnace and cleaning out the dust. The most complicated HVAC tune-up procedures, however, should be left to the professionals!
