Keeping Your Cool: The Importance of Spring Tune-Ups
The warm North Carolina weather is finally arriving and spring is in the air. While you’re getting the lawn ready, spring cleaning the house, and planning your next vacation, don’t neglect your HVAC unit this season. Here are a few reasons a spring tune up really does matter.
- Performing at its Best. Just like any other motor or machine, your HVAC system needs a little TLC to keep working, too. Over the winter months your air conditioner has gathered dust, debris and some connections may have come loose too. A tune up includes cleaning your coils, oiling the motors, checking the air flow, tightening any lose connections and much more. Make sure your unit is ready to full at its full potential when the really hot temperatures arrive in a few months.
- Reduced Bills. We all want to save money and a tune up helps you do just that. By keeping your system clean, the air can flow freely and at maximum efficiency. This keeps the electrical bills down, and not to mention potential repair costs, too.
- Better Air Quality. If you’ve ever spent a spring in North Carolina, you’re probably familiar with the yellow haze that hangs around for several weeks, pollen. Keep your watery eyes, sneezing and coughs at bay with clean air. During the tune up, our technicians will clean any filters and inspect duct work to make sure that the air flow isn’t blocked or even worse, polluted with dirt and debris.
- Rest Easy. You may schedule a tune up for your car before a big trip. The same goes with heating and air. By scheduling a seasonal tune up, you can rest easy knowing that you’ve done your part in keeping your unit running smoothly, saving yourself money, and breathing easier as the warm weather rolls in.
While you’re spring cleaning, add Thornton’s Heating and Air Conditioning to your list and then sit back, relax, and enjoy the season knowing that your HVAC unit has you covered.
