Have You Been Wondering What Happens During Home HVAC Maintenance?

Located in the picturesque Florida Panhandle, Tallahassee is actually the biggest city in the entire region, and it offers plenty of reasons for its continuing growth. As the capital of Florida, it’s a city that’s well-known for offering a truly vibrant arts and culture scene, a diverse food scene, as well as tons of amazing outdoor recreation and family-friendly activities. However, it also packs a punch when it comes to heat, especially in the summertime. That’s why a properly-maintained HVAC system is so important if you live there.

When your HVAC unit is ignored, it tends to get dirty and can then make your energy bills go sky-high before you even realize it. In addition, without regular maintenance, your AC could start to falter right when those Florida temperatures begin to rise. The thing is that most Tallahassee homeowners don’t even realize how important HVAC maintenance can be or what an AC technician will do when you call them for regular maintenance.

What Does HVAC Maintenance Entail?

When you schedule HVAC maintenance with us at Payne Heating & Air Conditioning in Tallahassee, FL, one of our highly-qualified technicians will perform the following important steps:

  • Checking your condensation lines
  • Checking your refrigerant levels
  • Checking & calibrating your thermostat
  • Cleaning or replacing your filters as needed
  • Cleaning your condenser coils
  • Cleaning & tightening all of your system’s electrical connections
  • Performing an amp draw check on your compressor as well as your condenser and evaporator motors

A Longer-Lasting HVAC Unit

How well you maintain your AC unit will determine how long it lasts. In fact, according to both the United States Department of Energy and a survey by the National Association of Home Builders, well-maintained AC systems should last a good 15 to 20 years. Make sure that your HVAC system doesn’t suffer a shortened lifespan due to a lack of proper maintenance through the years.
