It’s important to note that over 75 percent of HVAC system repairs occur due to a lack of regular maintenance. Like how we go for checkups and maintenance with our vehicles, our HVAC systems also require yearly checkups to ensure they operate at their best. Performing regular preventative maintenance on your HVAC system offers significant benefits that we will look into further below.
Increase System Performance and Efficiency
Over time, the components of your HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) system may undergo wear and tear, which can cause a decline in the system’s overall performance and energy efficiency. As a result, the system may require more power to function correctly, leading to higher energy bills. Therefore, keeping your HVAC system well-maintained and replacing worn-out parts promptly to ensure optimal functionality and energy efficiency is important.
Extend the Life of Your HVAC System
The lifespan of your HVAC system depends on the type you own. On average, a heat pump can function between 10 and 15 years with proper maintenance, while boilers can last up to 20 years. However, regardless of your system, it’s crucial to maintain it to ensure it lasts as long as possible. Neglecting maintenance can result in a shorter lifespan for your HVAC system.
Increase Safety
It is vital to keep your HVAC system well-maintained for its optimal performance and the safety of your property and its inhabitants. When it comes to heating and cooling, a lot of electricity is used, and many small, moving parts are involved. Regular preventative maintenance checkups can help detect issues such as clogged ducts, system overheating, or wiring errors. If left unchecked, these issues can lead to severe damage to your property and even pose a risk to the safety of the occupants. Therefore, ensuring your well-maintained HVAC system is crucial for a safe and comfortable living environment.
