Why Is A Spring Tune-Up Important?
Lots of people set aside time for spring cleaning, but they may not take time for spring HVAC maintenance. When planning an annual deep clean of your home, set aside time to check the heating and cooling system! While not usually something you’d want to show off, your HVAC plays a vital role in the household, which means a spring tune-up carries more weight than you may believe. From lower utility bills to improved air quality, a once-over from Bloomington Heating & Air is the best way to say thanks to your heating and air conditioning unit!
Four Reasons To Schedule Spring Maintenance Now
1. Keep The Warranty Valid
Though the majority of HVAC systems last more than a decade, for homeowners who’ve had a new unit installed within the last several years, it’s important to keep the warranty valid. This may seem trite, but spring maintenance is one of the easiest ways to stay compliant with the warranty. Most manufacturers require regular tune-ups performed by a licensed professional, such as a technician with Bloomington Heating & Air.
2. Peace-Of-Mind For The Summer
It’s a good feeling to know your home will be comfortable all summer long thanks to planned maintenance. But, there are three easy ways to help the HVAC unit keep your home cool:
- Close the window blinds and shades on hot days;
- Install thermostats away from high heat locations; and
- If the home has an attic, make sure it has adequate ventilation.
3. Everyone Breathes Easier
During the winter months, bacteria, dust, dirt, and other minuscule particles accumulate in the network of air ducts and vents throughout the home. Though changing the air filter as recommended helps alleviate the number of allergens floating aimlessly in the air, so does HVAC maintenance. Since the unit is deep cleaned inside and out, the build-up is removed from moving parts that could send it back into the ductwork and into the home.
4. You’re Ahead Of The Pack
If April showers bring May flowers, then summertime brings one of the busiest times of the year for a heating and cooling system. Spring maintenance allows our technicians the opportunity to look over your unit and make any necessary adjustments and/or repairs before the seasonal rush makes scheduling maintenance more difficult.
