Residential Preventive Maintenance Plans
The Importance of Preventive Maintenance
Regular maintenance is essential for the wellbeing of any HVAC system, and it is the best way to avoid breakdowns and high repair costs. Air conditioners, heat pumps and hot water heaters that are not properly maintained usually have a shorter lifespan because the longer these systems go without maintenance, the less efficient they become. We have found that most repair calls and HVAC breakdowns could have been avoided had the systems been maintained on a regular basis. HVAC systems are like your vehicle; if you do not keep up with preventive maintenance, you are not ensuring your equipment is operating at peak performance.

DIY Preventive Maintenance
As a homeowner, you can help your air conditioner and heating system run smoothly by doing a few things:
Keep Your Air Filters Clean
Some filters need changing every month; others are good to go for ninety days. If you have furry friends, check the filters often as pet fur can clog an air filter very quickly.
Keep Your Outdoor Unit Clean
Rinse it with a garden hose periodically, clear the area of debris, and keep any foliage trimmed back at least two feet.
Keep Your Air Vents Clean
