Checking the Thermostat and Controls
A technician will usually start by verifying your thermostat is functioning correctly and communicating properly with your system.
Inspecting the Air Filter
Filters are checked for dirt and buildup, since a clogged filter reduces efficiency and strains the system.
Examining Electrical Connections
Loose or worn electrical connections can cause performance issues or safety hazards, so these are checked and tightened as needed.
Testing Refrigerant Levels
For AC systems, refrigerant levels are measured to make sure they match manufacturer specifications. Levels that are too low can signal a leak.
Inspecting Ductwork
Technicians look for leaks, disconnected sections, or blockages in ductwork that could be reducing airflow and efficiency throughout your home.
Cleaning Key Components
Coils, drains, and other components accumulate dirt and debris over time. Cleaning these parts helps your system run more efficiently.
Testing Overall System Performance
Finally, the system is run through a full cycle to confirm it's heating or cooling properly and operating within normal parameters.
Why Regular Inspections Matter
Routine inspections catch small issues before they become expensive repairs, extend the life of your system, and keep it running efficiently year-round.
