HVAC Maintenance in Spartanburg

Another reason to schedule seasonal HVAC maintenance in Spartanburg is your warranty. Many homeowners are unaware that these plans often require seasonal tune-ups as a condition of coverage. When we perform maintenance, we’ll provide you with everything you need in the unfortunate event you have to make a claim. Our team also meets manufacturer requirements by customizing our maintenance services to their particular guidelines.

Homeowners often ask us when to schedule, and it depends on where you’re at. If you’ve never scheduled or can’t remember the last time, now is probably the right time. Our HVAC technicians can perform comprehensive heating maintenance and AC maintenance services at the same time.

If your equipment is on a maintenance schedule, we recommend scheduling early in the season. That means scheduling heating maintenance for your furnace, heat pump, or boiler in early fall. It means scheduling AC maintenance for your AC or heat pump in early spring. This way, our technicians have inspected, cleaned, and tuned your system before you ever have to run it.

Our technicians will inspect and clean your outdoor unit. That includes testing the service disconnect switch and blowing leaves and other debris out of the fan area. We’ll ensure that the unit is level and check the refrigerant pressure. Our technicians will also clean the condenser coils and lubricate the fan bearings.

Inside, we’ll inspect the insulation and seals on your exposed ducts. For electric furnaces, we’ll clean and test the heat exchanger and ignition system. With gas furnaces, it’s important to clean and test the pilot mechanism and burner. Our technicians will also check your exhaust and CO monitors. For ACs and heat pumps, we’ll clean the condenser coils, test the wet switch, and clear out the condensate drain line.

In the final phase, we’ll swap out your HVAC filter and test the thermostat. We’ll turn the system on and let it cycle. Finally, we’ll ensure that static air pressure is in the optimal range.
