Frequently Asked Questions!

appliance repair technician

Why should I have maintenance done?

Keeping your heating and cooling system in good working order means your utility bills will be lower, your home will be more comfortable, and you'll need to call for repairs less often.

When should I set a maintenance schedule?

Schedule a maintenance service call before the heating season starts. If there are any problems with the system, it's better to find out before it's cold outside! Do the same for your cooling system before the sweltering season begins.

How often should I change my filters?

Replace your heating and cooling air filters every month that they are in use. Operating your system with old, dirty filters means energy is wasted and your system may even be damaged. While you're at it, check and clean the filters in your home's cleaners and humidifiers.
