We talk a lot on this blog about the importance of maintenance for the various parts of your HVAC system such as your air conditioner, furnace, or heat pump. We point out the ways that getting repairs done as soon as possible can prevent a problem from worsening or from driving up your utility bills as your HVAC system struggles to get the job done.
But we don’t always acknowledge that paying for maintenance and repair can be tough, especially if you’re also faced with increased utility bills because of something that’s not quite right in your HVAC system. We’ve got some great options for making sure you get the maintenance and repair you need without paying more than necessary. Here’s the info.
Why Maintenance Is Critical
Getting maintenance done annually on both your AC system and your heating system is actually the best thing you can do to save money. There are three main reasons for that.
- Efficiency: Over the course of a season’s hard work, these systems decrease in efficiency. Dust and grit accumulate, lubricant wears away, friction increases, and airflow is impeded. The efficiency will drop by about 5% each year, raising your heating and cooling costs. But maintenance can bring your efficiency right back up.
- Repair Needs: The vast majority of repair needs can be completely avoided by getting annual maintenance. Your technician won’t just address the friction and airflow issues mentioned above which add to wear and tear and increase the risk of something going wrong. They’ll also catch tiny issues before they have a chance to develop into real problems that require repair.
- Longevity: Having to replace an air conditioner or a furnace is a huge expense. Without maintenance, the lifespan of these systems can be cut in half. Investing in maintenance means being able to put off that expensive replacement for several more years.
