Benefits of Regular HVAC Maintenance

MAXIMIZE COMFORT, SAVE MONEY, AND STAY SAFE:
THE BENEFITS OF REGULAR HVAC MAINTENANCE

Most people can agree on the importance of having regular maintenance for things such as your car, yard, or even teeth, but when it comes to having regular HVAC maintenance, so many pass up the opportunity. However, when you consider all the benefits that come with having your HVAC system regularly serviced, there’s no doubt that regular maintenance is the smarter, more proactive move.

Improve Comfort
When it’s time to deal with those humid, hot summer days or cold, frigid winter nights, the last thing you want is a faulty furnace or AC unit. Having regular maintenance for your HVAC will ensure that hot and cold air from your system is flowing more evenly and prevent these untimely mishaps from occurring. That way you don’t have to deal with the hassle of waiting for someone to come to fix your furnace in the middle of the freezing winter. 

Cost-Efficient
Many are under the assumption that having regular HVAC maintenance is too expensive, however, keeping up with the maintenance of your HVAC system will ultimately reduce costs and save you money. Maintenance checks allow possible problems to be easily corrected before they end up becoming a much larger, harder-to-fix problem. An HVAC maintenance plan is ultimately much cheaper than having to continuously repair or even replace your HVAC system. Having your HVAC system serviced will also ensure that your system is running as smoothly as possible. This guarantees that your system isn’t using up more energy than needed and ends up cutting down your energy bill. In the end, the cost of preventing the problem is cheaper than the cost of fixing the problem.

Increase Your System’s Longevity
It’s no surprise that system maintenance is a great way to improve system longevity. As we’ve mentioned earlier, having your HVAC system regularly serviced is a great way to prevent having to frequently repair or replace parts of the system. The average HVAC system has a life span that ranges from 10 to 20 years depending on the system. A poorly serviced system will have many different issues that can build up over time and put a heavy strain on it. 

If you don’t have your system regularly serviced, you’re risking having its lifespan significantly reduced. To ensure that you’re enjoying your HVAC system for its full lifespan, make sure you are having your system regularly checked for maintenance.

Health and Safety
Not only does regular maintenance of your HVAC system keep you safe by preventing potentially deadly mishaps like electrical fires or carbon monoxide leaks, but it also promotes your everyday health and wellbeing by improving your home’s indoor air quality (IAQ).  The Environmental Protection Agency has found that the air inside a heavy majority of homes is 2-5 times more polluted than the air outside. Bacteria, mold, and other pollutants can start to build up within different parts of your HVAC system if left unchecked. Constantly breathing in these harmful substances leads to members of the household experiencing uncomfortable side effects such as coughing, itchiness, irritation of the eyes and throat, headaches, and even long-term consequences like respiratory problems and heart disease. That’s why for the sake of you and your household’s well-being, you are regularly having your HVAC system serviced and cleaned.
