How You Can Save Money by Taking Care of Your HVAC
Prioritizing HVAC maintenance is one of the most important pieces of maintaining a comfortable home. Whether you take the time to take care of your HVAC yourself, or you hire professionals, you can save money (and yourself a headache) by taking care of your HVAC and extending it’s life.
What is preventative HVAC maintenance?
Preventative HVAC maintenance means taking care of your HVAC before something happens, before you notice something wrong.
Waiting until something breaks only costs you money, gives you a headache, and makes your home uncomfortable.
Several things you or a professional could do to give your HVAC a check-up include:
- Replacing the air filter (super easy!)
- Checking for leaks
- Checking refrigerant levels
- Testing your thermostat
- Tightening anything that’s loose
If you hire someone to come out to your home annually, which we recommend you do, they’ll check your HVAC for anything not quite right and act accordingly. Our team at Win & Nguyen are skilled HVAC experts that would love to help.
The Benefits of HVAC Maintenance & FAQs
Like we mentioned, HVAC maintenance extends the life of your HVAC and ultimately saves you money. Keeping it “healthy” and catching any problems early ensures that your home is able to protect you from Nevada’s dry heat.
How often should I check my system?
The answer is twofold! You should have a professional come out to give it a checkup at least once a year. However, you should be keeping an eye on it regularly. Change your air filters. Listen and look for abnormalities. Don’t wait for the new year to take another look!
Can I perform HVAC maintenance myself?
There are a few things you can do yourself like changing the air filters or checking for leaks.
However, it’s important to hire a professional to come out at least once a year to really make sure everything is in proper working order.
Can I run my system before HVAC maintenance?
Yes! No need to wait to run your system. It keeps your home comfortable! However, don’t procrastinate HVAC maintenance. The best time to check things out is BEFORE something breaks.
