The Top Six Reasons to Enroll in an HVAC Maintenance Contract
Your HVAC system is essential to a sense of comfort and indoor air quality. The furnace and air conditioner work around the clock in the background, heating, cooling, regulating the humidity and filtering your indoor air. Many homeowners take this functionality for granted until they have to do without them. If your AC has ever stopped working on a scorching summer day, or the furnace has stopped working during a blizzard, you know what this is like firsthand.
No homeowner wishes to deal with emergency repairs, high energy bills or inconsistent home comfort. What if you could guarantee a constant source of healthy, conditioned air when you want it most?
That’s where preventive HVAC maintenance comes into play. Like receiving an oil change for your car, routine tune-ups are essential for keeping your HVAC system running at its best. And to get every benefit from each maintenance visit, you should consider signing up for an HVAC maintenance contract.
This plan is an arrangement between you and an HVAC contractor. Participation takes the uncertainty out of HVAC service by providing routine maintenance, savings on repair work between scheduled appointments and other advantages. An HVAC maintenance contract is not required to request tune-ups with Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning, but we highly endorse registering. Here are six reasons why.
1. Automated Reminders to Schedule HVAC Maintenance
Life gets busy, so it’s not hard to forget about setting up furnace maintenance for the fall and air conditioning maintenance in the spring. With an HVAC membership, you’ll get scheduled reminders to get an appointment on your calendar. If you’re unfamiliar with why HVAC maintenance is so worthwhile, check out these benefits:
- Reveal small problems early: Issues with your HVAC equipment usually develop slowly. When a technician checks the internal components once a year, it’s possible to find and take care of smaller problems before they turn into big headaches.
- Reduce the risk of equipment failures: By securing that loose fan belt and stabilizing the off-kilter blower motor during a maintenance visit, the chance of a sudden breakdown decreases.
- Lower repair costs: Routine HVAC maintenance is an affordable, expected expense that reduces the need for most major repairs.
- Enhance energy efficiency: The Department of Energy estimates that once-a-year maintenance can increase HVAC efficiency by close to 30%, bringing down your heating and cooling bills at the same time.
- Boost home comfort: When your heating and cooling system operates the way it should, airflow improves for pleasant temperatures and more balanced humidity throughout the house.
- Extend the system’s life span: A clean, tuned-up, well-lubricated HVAC system can survive for years longer compared to a neglected one, saving you on premature replacement expenses.
- Guarantee safety: An equipment and safety assessment during each visit delivers peace of mind that your home comfort system is running like it’s supposed to.
- Maintain your warranty: Most HVAC manufacturers value preventive maintenance to such a degree that they demand once-a-year tune-ups to keep your warranty active. Investing a little in upkeep now safeguards you from expensive repairs that your warranty will cover.
2. Priority Service
Having an HVAC maintenance contract puts you at the front of the line when you call to request an emergency repair. You can usually count on same-day service—even during nights, weekends and holidays—thanks to 24/7/365 guaranteed priority service for members.
3. Priority Install
Planning to replace your heating and cooling system? An HVAC maintenance plan allows access to the most rapid installs feasible, even during the most hectic weeks.
4. Discount on Repairs and Services
Preventive maintenance reduces the need for repair service, but if your system needs some attention, having an HVAC maintenance agreement grants a 15% discount. You’ll also receive 15% off indoor air quality products, like pleated filters, whole-house humidifiers and charged media air cleaners.
5. Repair Guarantee
How can you know the technician has executed a job well done? Put your mind at ease with a 100% satisfaction guarantee on all repairs and installations for one year. If the final product leave you disappointed, the technician will return to correct things.
