Groundhog Day can be more than a fun holiday predicting the rest of winter; have you thought about the fact that it’s also the perfect time to perform a checkup for your HVAC system? At J.L. Brady Company LLC, 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 checkup appointment.

Optimal Timing for Your HVAC Maintenance

As Groundhog Day marks the end of the coldest part of winter, 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 important parts of the system. Keeping up with routine HVAC maintenance gives a professional HVAC technician a chance to help you decide if your furnace needs some TLC.

Scheduling maintenance around Groundhog Day also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system before the busy summer season. In fact, scheduling two maintenance appointments each year will offer better results. One should be before spring with the other in fall.

Must-Do Maintenance Tasks for Your HVAC System

Routine maintenance visits are vital for ensuring your HVAC system operates with optimum efficiency. A thorough inspection and cleaning routine gives our technicians plenty of time to make sure 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 replenishing lost coolant: Ensuring the right balance of airflow and filtration is critical, which means a consistent schedule of cleaning or replacing your air filters. If your system has leaked refrigerant, we'll restore the supply and identify the problem.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Flushing out the drainage system keeps things flowing like it’s supposed to and helps prevent water damage.
  • Reviewing electrical connections and safety features: Double checking that the wiring and software features are functioning properly is vital. This avoids fires and maintains smooth operation.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—averting problems before they occur. This kind of proactive service from experienced professionals can provide your heating and cooling systems the optimal opportunity for long-term efficiency.
