The Top Six Reasons to Enroll in an HVAC Maintenance Contract 

Your HVAC equipment is essential to home comfort and high air quality. The furnace and air conditioner work around the clock in the background, heating, cooling, controlling the humidity and filtering your home’s indoor air. Many homeowners take these features for granted until they’re suddenly left without them. If your air conditioning has ever broken down on a sweltering summer day, or the furnace can’t generate enough heat during a blizzard, you know what this is like firsthand.

No homeowner likes to deal with urgent repairs, higher energy bills or inconsistent home comfort. What if you could maintain a continuous supply of healthy, conditioned air when you need it most?

That’s where preventive HVAC maintenance comes into play. Like getting an oil change for your car, consistent tune-ups are vital for keeping your HVAC system in good shape. And to get the most from each maintenance visit, you should look into enrolling in an HVAC maintenance contract.

This agreement is an arrangement between you and an HVAC contractor. Membership takes the guessing out of HVAC service by supplying routine maintenance, savings on repair work between scheduled appointments and other benefits. An HVAC maintenance contract is not required to ask for tune-ups with Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning, but we highly endorse signing up. Here are six reasons why.

1. Automated Reminders to Schedule HVAC Maintenance

Life gets busy, so it’s easy to forget about setting up furnace maintenance in the fall and air conditioning maintenance before 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, take a look at these benefits:

• Expose small problems early: Issues with your heating and cooling often form gradually. When a technician checks the internal components once a year, it’s possible to pinpoint and resolve small problems before they become big headaches.
• Reduce the risk of equipment failures: By tightening that loose fan belt and stabilizing the off-kilter blower motor during a maintenance visit, the risk of a sudden breakdown goes down.
• Saving on repair costs: Scheduled HVAC maintenance is an affordable, predictable expense that eliminates the need for numerous major repairs.
• Enhance energy efficiency: The Department of Energy estimates that once-a-year maintenance can increase HVAC efficiency by as high as 30%, lowering your heating and cooling bills in the process.

• Boost home comfort: When your heating and cooling system operates the way it should, airflow improves for consistent temperatures and more balanced humidity in every room.
• Extend the system’s life span: A clean, tuned-up, well-lubricated HVAC system can survive for years longer versus a neglected one, saving you on premature replacement equipment.
• Guarantee safety: An equipment and safety assessment during every visit grants peace of mind that your home comfort system is working as intended.
• Maintain your warranty: Most HVAC manufacturers prioritize preventive maintenance so much that they necessitate once-a-year tune-ups to keep your warranty in good standing. Investing a little in maintenance now shields you from costly repairs that your warranty should cover.

2. Priority Service

Having an HVAC maintenance plan puts you at the front of the line when you call to request an emergency repair. You can often count on same-day service—even for nights, weekends and holidays—thanks to 24/7/365 guaranteed priority service for members.

3. Priority Install

Planning to replace your home comfort system? An HVAC agreement gives you access to the most rapid installs feasible, even during the most hectic weeks.

4. Discounted Repairs and Services

Routine maintenance reduces the need for repair calls, but if your system needs some attention, having an HVAC maintenance contract provides a 15% discount. You’ll also receive 15% off indoor air quality products, including pleated filters, whole-house humidifiers and charged media air cleaners.

5. Repair Guarantee

How can you be sure 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 dissatisfied, the technician will return to correct things.
