Groundhog Day can be more than a fun holiday predicting the rest of winter; have you thought about the fact that it’s also a good time of year to request a tune-up for your HVAC system? At Parker County Cooling & Heating, 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 can be a sweet spot for an HVAC checkup appointment.

When You Should Schedule Routine HVAC Maintenance

As Groundhog Day marks a potential shift in seasons, it's also an ideal time to take a look at your furnace. For example, constant freezing temperatures can put significant stress on important parts of the system. Staying on top of routine HVAC maintenance gives a professional HVAC technician a chance to help you decide if your furnace needs a little extra attention.

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 autumn.

Key Items to Include in Your HVAC Checkup

Routine maintenance appointments are essential for ensuring your HVAC system operates with optimum efficiency. A comprehensive inspection and cleaning routine gives our technicians adequate time to ensure everything is in tip-top shape. On a service call, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will complete can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replacing any lost coolant: Ensuring the right balance of airflow and filtration is essential, which means regularly cleaning or switching out the air filters. If your system has leaked refrigerant, we'll replenish the supply and locate the source of the leak.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Flushing out the drainage system keeps things running smoothly and avoids water damage.
  • Checking electrical connections and safety features: Making sure that the wiring and software features are functioning properly is imperative. This helps prevent fires and maintains your system's reliability.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—averting problems before they occur. This type of proactive service from experienced professionals can offer your heating and cooling systems the optimal opportunity for maintaining peak condition.
