Groundhog Day can be more than a fun holiday predicting the rest of winter; have you thought about the fact that it’s also a good time of year to schedule routine maintenance for your HVAC system? At MPC Heating & Cooling, our team of certified experts can keep your heating and cooling system in optimal condition. It just so happens that this time of year is ideal for an HVAC service call.

Optimal Timing for Your HVAC Maintenance

As Groundhog Day marks the potential for spring, it's also an ideal time to take a look at your furnace. For example, brutal winter weather can put a lot of strain on important parts of the system. Keeping up with routine HVAC maintenance gives a certified technician a chance to see if your furnace needs some TLC.

Using Groundhog Day as your maintenance reminder also prepares your air conditioning or cooling system before temperatures start to rise. In fact, scheduling two maintenance appointments every year will offer lasting results. One should be as winter ends with the other in autumn.

Key Items to Include in Your HVAC Checkup

Routine maintenance tune-ups are vital for ensuring your HVAC system operates with optimum efficiency. A comprehensive inspection and cleaning routine gives our technicians the time they need to make sure everything is in tip-top shape. During a visit, some specific maintenance tasks your technician will carry out can include:

  • Replacing the air filters or replenishing lost coolant: Ensuring the right balance of airflow and filtration is critical, which means regularly cleaning or replacing your air filters. If your system has leaked refrigerant, we'll restore the supply and locate the problem.
  • Clearing the drain lines: Cleaning the drainage system keeps things running smoothly and helps prevent water damage.
  • Checking electrical connections and safety features: Confirming that the wiring and software features are working correctly is vital. This helps prevent fires and maintains smooth operation.

The best kind of HVAC maintenance is proactive—preventing problems before they happen. This kind of proactive service from our professionals can offer your heating and cooling systems the greatest potential for long-term efficiency.
