The Importance of Regular HVAC Maintenance
If you find you need Furnace Repair, Service or Installation, we're only a phone call away. Put us to workWhen Do You Need HVAC Maintenance?
Regular maintenance is a necessary part of owning anything – from a car to a home to a computer. Your heating and/or cooling system is no exception. In fact, you may be noticing record high electricity or gas bills, inconsistent heating or cooling throughout your home, or a need for constant repairs. All of these indications show that you need to get your system maintained, pronto.
Common Maintenance Plan Pitfalls
Many AC and furnace companies will offer maintenance contracts, telling you that you need regular, yearly or twice-yearly, maintenance on your systems. If they are doing little more than clean your unit’s filter, this may be true. However, a maintenance plan should contain much more than a quick, five-minute cleaning twice a year. Unfortunately, many maintenance plans are a bit of a rip-off, set up just to upsell you on other units or repairs. Some are even outright scams. If you experience high-pressure sales tactics, are told that if something isn’t repaired immediately – your whole system will fall apart, or are told that, though your system is fixed, the changes won’t show up for a few days – you are getting scammed. We recommend taking advantage of Integrity Air’s free bids to get a second opinion.
