Maximize Energy Efficiency
Over time, dust, debris, and normal wear and tear force your HVAC system to work harder to achieve the same results. This inefficiency is directly reflected in your monthly utility bills. During a professional tune-up, our technicians clean critical components like coils, calibrate your thermostat, and ensure all parts are functioning optimally. A clean, efficient system uses less energy to heat and cool your home, leading to noticeable savings on your energy costs.
Extend the Lifespan of Your Equipment
An HVAC system is one of the most significant investments you'll make in your home. Regular maintenance is the key to protecting that investment. By lubricating moving parts, tightening electrical connections, and addressing minor issues before they escalate, we prevent the cumulative stress that leads to premature system failure. A well-cared-for unit can last years longer than one that is neglected, delaying the substantial cost of a full replacement.
Prevent Costly and Inconvenient Breakdowns
There is never a good time for your air conditioner to fail on a sweltering Bishop afternoon or for your furnace to quit during a cold winter night. The vast majority of emergency HVAC repairs are due to issues that could have been identified and resolved during a routine maintenance visit. Our technicians are trained to spot warning signs of potential part failure, giving you the chance to address them on your schedule, not in the middle of an emergency.
Improve Your Home’s Indoor Air Quality
Your HVAC system circulates all the air within your home. If the system is dirty, it can distribute dust, allergens, mold spores, and other contaminants. Our maintenance service includes replacing or cleaning air filters and cleaning internal components where these pollutants can accumulate. This process significantly improves your indoor air quality, creating a healthier environment for you and your family.
Maintain Your Manufacturer’s Warranty
Most HVAC manufacturers require proof of regular, professional maintenance to keep the system’s warranty valid. Without a documented service history, you could be responsible for the full cost of a major component failure that would have otherwise been covered. Our maintenance service provides the necessary documentation to ensure your warranty remains intact.
Our Comprehensive HVAC Maintenance Checklist
We believe in transparency and thoroughness. When you schedule an HVAC maintenance service with us, our certified technicians perform a detailed, multi-point inspection and tune-up to ensure every aspect of your system is in peak condition.
For Your Air Conditioning System (Spring/Summer Tune-Up):
- Inspect and Clean Condenser Coils: We remove dirt and debris from the outdoor unit’s coils to ensure proper heat transfer and efficiency.
- Check Refrigerant Levels: We verify that refrigerant levels meet manufacturer specifications to guarantee optimal cooling performance.
- Clean and Clear Condensate Drain Line: We flush the drain line to prevent clogs, which can cause water damage and system shutdowns.
- Inspect and Test Electrical Components: We tighten connections and test capacitors and relays to prevent electrical failures.
- Lubricate Moving Parts: We lubricate motors and bearings to reduce friction, noise, and wear.
- Inspect Blower Motor and Wheel: We ensure the blower is clean and operating correctly for consistent and powerful airflow.
- Calibrate Thermostat: We test the thermostat for accuracy to ensure it correctly reads the room temperature and controls the system.
For Your Heating System (Fall/Winter Tune-Up):
- Inspect the Heat Exchanger: We carefully check the heat exchanger for cracks or damage, a critical safety measure to prevent carbon monoxide leaks.
- Clean and Test Burners and Ignition System: We ensure the ignition is reliable and the burners are clean for safe, efficient operation.
- Check and Adjust Gas Pressure: We verify that the gas pressure is set to the manufacturer’s specifications for optimal performance and safety.
- Test All Safety Controls: We test limit switches, pressure switches, and other safety features to ensure they function correctly.
- Inspect Flue and Venting: We check for proper ventilation to ensure that combustion gases are safely exhausted from your home.
When to Schedule HVAC Service
For optimal performance and reliability in Bishop’s distinct seasons, we recommend scheduling professional maintenance twice a year. An air conditioning tune-up in the spring prepares your system for the summer heat, while a furnace tune-up in the fall ensures you’re ready for the cold.
Beyond your scheduled visits, be aware of signs that your system may need attention, including:
- Unusual noises like grinding, squealing, or rattling.
- A sudden and unexplained increase in your energy bills.
- Weak or inconsistent airflow from your vents.
- The system cycling on and off more frequently than usual.
- Unpleasant odors coming from the vents.
Addressing these symptoms promptly can prevent a minor issue from turning into a major, expensive repair.
