I like to have my HVAC system serviced twice every year in order to make sure it’s running optimally. I have very little knowledge about HVAC equipment, which means that I’m not qualified to find hidden issues or concerns. How can someone care for something if they know nothing about it? HVAC professionals are trained to find these things and they do an excellent job at caring and cleaning HVAC systems throughout all the seasons. Two HVAC tune ups per year doesn’t cost me that much, especially when I consider how much repairs are or a brand new HVAC system. In hiring an HVAC company to come service my HVAC system, I’m saving myself money long term because my HVAC system will live a longer life compared to an HVAC unit that doesn’t get properly cleaned or examined. Currently, I’m about to have my fall HVAC tune up before the warmer weather disappears and the cooler weather arrives. Every fall, I like to take a step back and evaluate my AC system before turning it off for the season. I like to think about how well it cooled my home and how efficiently it ran. I always review my monthly utility expenses to see how much I spent that summer on cooling my house and I try to compare it to the previous year. In doing so, I’m able to get a clearer understanding on how well my AC system is performing. This tells me whether I need to adjust some things next year or if I should be considering a replacement. I believe every homeowner should evaluate their AC system before switching to their furnace.
