Is it really necessary to have your HVAC checked annually, or is it something you can just do yourself? Yes and no.
Having a Harbin technician inspect your HVAC system can prevent you from having to spend more money on serious damages when your system stops working. They look for issues in the ducts, filters, and potential clogs that most people don’t know to look for.
There’s no better time than the new year to have them check out your HVAC so that you don’t have any surprises when spring rolls around.
While you can’t tune-up your HVAC system yourself, there are steps you can take to minimize damage to your system:
● Change your air filters and clean your vents regularly. Some filters need to be changed monthly, every three months, or twice a year. Follow manufacturer instructions or ask your technician what they recommend.
● Dust and vacuum. Keeping regular cleaning regimen can reduce the amount of dust, dander, and other particles that enter your HVAC system and slow it down.
● Program or upgrade your thermostat. Smart thermostats can reduce how often the HVAC runs while keeping your home warm or cool as necessary. You can program certain settings so that temperatures are more efficient at night or when you’re at work during the day.
But these steps don’t replace the need for an annual inspection. It feels easier on your wallet to skip it, but Harbin technicians know to look for things that you may not notice. Detecting issues early means extending the life of your unit, and saving you money in the long run.
It’s not too late to start your year off fresh. Call Harbin Heating and Air today to have your HVAC system inspected so that you can enjoy fresh, clean air, and peace of mind knowing your home is in working order.
