Groundhog Day can be more than a fun holiday predicting the rest of winter; have you ever considered that it’s also the perfect time to schedule routine maintenance for your HVAC system? At Air Current AC & Heat, 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.

When You Should Schedule Routine HVAC Maintenance

As Groundhog Day marks a potential shift in seasons, it's also an ideal time to check your heating system. For example, single-digit temperatures can put considerable wear on key furnace components. Scheduling routine HVAC maintenance gives a professional HVAC technician a chance to determine whether your furnace needs a tune-up.

Using Groundhog Day as your maintenance reminder also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system before temperatures start to rise. In fact, scheduling two maintenance appointments every year will offer lasting results. One should be as winter ends with the other in autumn.

Key Items to Include in Your HVAC Checkup

Routine maintenance tune-ups are vital for ensuring your HVAC system operates with optimum efficiency. A detailed inspection and cleaning routine gives our technicians plenty of time to ensure everything is in good condition. On a service call, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will carry out can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replacing any lost coolant: Ensuring the right balance of airflow and filtration is critical, which means regularly cleaning or switching out the air filters. If your system has lost any refrigerant, we'll refill the supply and identify the problem.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Cleaning the drainage system ensures things flowing like it’s supposed to and minimize the risk of water damage.
  • Inspecting electrical connections and safety features: Confirming that the wiring and software features are working correctly is crucial. This helps prevent fires and maintains smooth operation.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—stopping problems before they happen. This kind of proactive service from experienced professionals can provide your heating and cooling systems the best chance for peak performance.
