What Does an HVAC Maintenance Check Include?
Even though many people understand that regular HVAC maintenance is important, exactly what this maintenance entails is not always understood. When customers call Western Heating & Air for Orem, UT HVAC repair services and maintenance checks, the service agent that responds is going to perform a series of tasks. These tasks help the service agent detect any problem with the HVAC system and identify the correct solution.
What You Can Expect
During routine HVAC maintenance checks a service agent will perform a number of tasks. Though an agent may adjust this routine to suit the nature of the particular system they are servicing, in general you can expect the following tasks to take place:
- System controls are checked for correct function
- All moving parts will be lubricated
- Secure all electrical connections
- Verify thermostat operation and settings
- Inspect condensate drain
Additional steps may be included in this process depending on whether a heating specific or cooling specific appliance is being worked on. For instance, a cooling specific appliance has an evaporator and coils that have to be checked for function; a heating specific appliance has a heat exchange and burner that have to be examined.
Work With an Experienced Agency
Regular service checks form the foundation of HVAC maintenance and should be performed by a qualified service agent. Training and experience go hand in hand when it comes to maintaining your home’s hardworking and important HVAC system. Businesses may have to schedule more frequent checks since these larger systems often have to provide round the clock operation. Businesses that rely heavily on their HVAC system may benefit from maintenance checks at the beginning of summer and winter in order to prepare the system for increased functional demands.
