The most expensive system in your home is probably the HVAC. Between the cost of all the hardware and the hours it takes to properly install all facets, your heating and cooling system is a major investment in comfort. So why wouldn’t you spend a little bit of money each year to keep it running properly?

You don’t think twice about getting the oil in your car changed every 3,000 miles (or so).  And your vehicle loses value every day. Your home on the other hand is actually an investment that increases in value. Which means the better shape it’s in, the more it’s worth.

Ok, ok, you say. You’re convinced. You need to regularly maintain your HVAC. But how?

It’s actually quite easy. Call ARS. Your local home comfort specialists offer seasonal system tune-ups to keep your system running right. We’ll clean the coils, look for leaks, gauge the power in the compressor and other parts, check belts, measure coolant, change filters and more.

There are some other things you can do yourself. Changing your filters regularly is the easiest. Depending upon where you live, you’ll want to install new air filters at least four times a year and as often as every month. Remember, with filters you get what you pay for. So spring for the good ones. Keeping dust and dirt out your system is critical to a system’s well being.

You can also keep bushes trimmed and well away from the outside unit of your system.  And don’t close off supply air outlets – that can be quite harmful to the operation of the overall system.

To find out just how affordable it can be to properly maintain your HVAC, call ARS today.
