The primary cause of heating and cooling equipment failure when it’s needed most is often times nothing more than neglect. That’s why the number one thing you can do to preserve your equipment and keep it operating at peak efficiency is to invest in preventive maintenance with Cooper Climate Control so that you can save money. Not only does your system benefit, but you do too with 15 percent off service repairs and priority service.
The typical air conditioner has a lifespan of around 10 to 15 years, and furnaces can last around 15 as well. Neglected equipment can fail before its time. Preventive maintenance performed by skilled technicians has been shown to extend the lifespan of equipment, in some cases up to 30 percent.
In our area, we rely on our air conditioners every day during the summer. Any machine that sees such hard, constant use needs regular maintenance to keep it running efficiently. Just as you maintain your car with oil changes and tune-ups, you should also maintain your HVAC system. It’s the third most expensive investment you have as a homeowner, following your home and your car. You have insurance for your home and car, so why not preserve your HVAC system with simple maintenance?
During preventive maintenance, a technician goes through a thorough system check and cleaning. A few examples are below:
- Check the voltage and current on the system’s motor, and tighten electric connections. Ensuring the motor and connections are all tuned up can keep your system operating safely and increase its lifespan.
- Lubricate all the moving parts of the equipment. Inadequate lubrication can increase friction among system components and consume more electricity. The resulting wear and tear could degrade equipment more quickly.
- Clean the coils on your air conditioner. A system with dirty coils might run longer than an appropriate cycle, leading to over stressed components, inefficiency and even premature break down.
- Check the refrigerant charge to ensure your unit is running at maximum efficiency.
Every HVAC system is unique, and regular preventive maintenance lets your technicians grow familiar with yours. They’ll be more likely to catch minor troubles before they get out of control and become expensive repairs.
