Keep Your HVAC System Working with an HVAC Maintenance Schedule

However, if you're a renter, you'll be the one that suffers if the air conditioning goes out in summer, or the heater stops working in the dead of winter. So, even if you rent, it does make sense to spend a little time thinking about the attention your home systems need to keep running at peak efficiency. If you want to learn the top tips for keeping your HVAC system cool, keep reading!

If you want to know the cheapest and easiest way to get the most from your HVAC system, you've just learned it. Change the unit's air filters.

Every year, homes collect around 40 pounds of dust and other airborne particles. A lot of that material ends up in your air conditioner's air filter. And that spells trouble.

When the air filter starts to clog, the A/C's motor starts working extra hard, which adds dollars to your energy bill. Even worse, unless you get the air filters changed annually, they can get stopped up completely significantly reducing air flow, and possibly burning up the motor! To avoid either of these possibilities changes your air filters today!

Remember all that dust and debris every home accumulates every year? Well, your air filter can only take out so much of it.

A significant portion can end up sitting in the vents, just to get blow out when the unit kicks on. For people with allergies or asthma, this can be miserable.

But even the lungs of people without those conditions can become irritated with all those airborne particles floating around.

The solution is getting a professional to clean your HVAC unit. A professional cleaning remove all the material from your home that you don't want to be breathing!

Here's the bottom line. If your home HVAC system is left unchecked, you'll end up breathing in all the dust, dirt, and pet dander floating through the air of your home.

However, the quality of the air in your home will dramatically improve when you change your air filters and get your system professionally cleaned.

Of course, allergy and asthma sufferers will notice the difference right away. But everyone benefits from breathing clean air! The key takeaway here is that you need to find a trusted partner to help you maintain your HVAC system before it fails.

It doesn't matter whether you rent and move frequently, or own your home and are looking to stay put. Keeping your home's systems running at peak efficiency makes sense for everyone. If signing up for a plan doesn't make sense for you, creating your own certainly does.
