With the warm weather we are still having here in Edmonton and area, it’s easy to forget that winter is right around the corner. But any long-time Albertan knows, winter can arrive quickly and fiercely. Before the freezing temperatures set in, ensuring your HVAC system is in top condition is essential to keep your home warm and your energy bills low. Scheduling a fall HVAC maintenance check with Academy Mechanical Services Inc. can save you from potential headaches during the coldest months of the year. Here are some of the benefits of booking your maintenance now.
Prevent Costly Breakdowns:
Winter can put a significant strain on your HVAC system, particularly your furnace. During peak operation, small issues that went unnoticed can turn into major malfunctions, leaving you without heat when you need it most. By scheduling a maintenance check in the fall, our certified technicians can catch and fix minor problems before they escalate, saving you from expensive emergency repairs down the line.
Maximize Energy Efficiency:
A well-maintained HVAC system runs more efficiently, using less energy to heat your home. This means lower utility bills throughout the winter. Cleaning or replacing dirty filters, checking for leaks, and tuning up your furnace will ensure that your system works at optimal efficiency. Over time, regular maintenance can lead to substantial savings on your energy bills.
Extend the Lifespan of your Equipment:
Just like a car, your HVAC system needs routine maintenance to last as long as possible. Regular checkups and tune-ups help to keep all parts of the system in good working order, reducing wear and tear. A properly maintained furnace can last 15 to 20 years, while neglecting maintenance can significantly shorten its lifespan, leading to costly replacements sooner than necessary.
Improves Indoor Air Quality:
During the winter, homes are sealed tightly to keep the cold out, which means poor air quality can become a concern. A dirty HVAC system can circulate dust, allergens, and other pollutants throughout your home. Fall maintenance includes cleaning ducts and filters, ensuring the air you breathe all winter long is clean and healthy.
Ensure Safety:
Your furnace, particularly gas-powered models, needs regular inspection to operate safely. Our fall maintenance service includes checking for carbon monoxide leaks and making sure the heat exchanger is intact. These critical steps ensure your family stays safe from harmful gases and other potential dangers.
Peace of Mind:
There’s no price for the peace of mind that comes with knowing your home’s heating system is prepared for winter. Fall HVAC maintenance ensures your system will run reliably, keeping you and your family warm and cozy no matter how cold it gets outside.
Don’t wait until winter sets in! By staying ahead of the winter chill with regular HVAC maintenance, you’ll enjoy a warm, comfortable home all season long without the stress of unexpected breakdowns or high energy bills.
