Groundhog Day isn't just about predicting the weather; have you ever considered that it’s also a great opportunity to schedule routine maintenance for your HVAC system? At HCE Systems, 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 a potential shift in seasons, it's also an ideal time to take a look at your furnace. For example, single-digit temperatures can put a lot of strain on key furnace components. Scheduling routine HVAC maintenance gives a certified technician a chance to help you decide if your furnace needs a tune-up.

A checkup at Groundhog Day also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system just in time for summer. In fact, scheduling two maintenance appointments annually will offer lasting results. One should be before spring with the other in fall.

Must-Do Maintenance Tasks for Your HVAC System

Routine maintenance appointments are essential for ensuring your HVAC system operates efficiently for many years. A thorough inspection and cleaning process allows our technicians plenty of time to verify that everything is in working order. On a service call, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will carry out can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replacing any lost coolant: Keeping a healthy balance of airflow and filtration is essential, which means a consistent schedule of 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 keeps things flowing like it’s supposed to and helps prevent water damage.
  • Inspecting electrical connections and safety features: Making sure that the wiring and software features are in good working order is crucial. This avoids fires and maintains your system's reliability.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—preventing problems before they arise. This type of proactive service from experienced professionals can offer your heating and cooling systems the greatest potential for maintaining peak condition.
