Spring is the perfect time to schedule an HVAC tune-up in Ft. Payne, AL. Your HVAC system helps you maintain safe and healthy indoor air quality throughout allergy season. Tune-ups will keep your system working efficiently. Here’s why you should consider scheduling your annual tune-up appointment for springtime.

Avoiding the Summer Rush

A lot of people scramble to find professional HVAC assistance in the summer months, especially if they find that their air conditioning equipment isn’t working the first time they turn it on. You can beat the summer rush by scheduling a springtime HVAC tune-up well in advance. This process will confirm that you’ll be able to experience cool air coming from your air conditioning unit when temperatures start to rise.

Protecting Warranty Coverage

If your HVAC system has warranty coverage, you may be required to schedule annual maintenance with a professional to keep the coverage valid. Choose a month in the spring to schedule this service between cold and warm seasons so that you stay in compliance.

Addressing Indoor Air Quality

If you suffer from allergies, high levels of pollen may cause unpleasant symptoms like sneezing and coughing. This may mean that you close windows and rely on your HVAC for airflow. A springtime HVAC tune-up will help you maintain healthy indoor air quality.

The air intake filter on your HVAC system helps to remove particulate matter from your indoor air. If you need more air purification than this, have our team install a whole-house filtration device onto your HVAC system. These devices can remove as much as 99.97% of the particulate matter in your home. This helps reduce allergies, asthma attacks, and other chronic health issues caused by unhealthy indoor air quality.

Checking Refrigerant Levels for Warm Weather

The refrigerant in your air conditioning unit is essential for cooling the air circulating through your home in the spring and summer. We can check the level of refrigerant in your system. If it is low, we will confirm that there isn’t a leak that’s causing the problem. If there is, we can make prompt repairs and refill your refrigerant back to the proper level.

If you have an older air conditioning unit that uses refrigerant no longer on the market, consider upgrading your equipment. A newer air conditioning model will be better for the environment. It may also be more efficient, helping to save you money on your monthly utility expenses as temperatures rise.

Preparing Your Heater Next Winter

Spring is the point where you stop using your heater for several months. An HVAC technician may clean and lubricate internal parts of the system to prevent corrosion. This can help eliminate the risk of not having heat when you turn on your furnace later in the year. Additionally, if you have a heater that isn’t working efficiently, a post-winter review of the system can make repairs in the off-season more affordable if needed. Your service technician can also give you an estimate of the remaining lifespan of your unit, giving you the time you need to plan savings and research the best option for a replacement.

Improving Efficiency

An HVAC system that undergoes annual tune-ups tends to be much more efficient than one that does not. We clean interior components, check electrical connections, and determine if you need your filter changed prior to the start of spring. This can increase efficiency and reduce repairs throughout the following year.

Preventing Mold Growth

It’s common for moisture to accumulate on the interior of heating and cooling equipment. This is especially true in the springtime when there is a lot of rainfall. This moisture can quickly lead to mold growth. Mold can then spread through your ductwork as your HVAC system runs, leading to serious health consequences. We will inspect for mold as well as check for any signs of moisture problems that should be addressed.
