Why Routine Maintenance Checks Could Save You Time And Money!
Saving You Money
Your heat pump or air conditioning system will work very hard in your home. They keep you warm in winter and cool in summer.
In order to do that, they funnel a lot of air through their systems. During that process, the filters pick up a lot of particles from the atmosphere.
Quite easily, the filters and coils can become clogged. Unless these are cleaned and the rest of the components are serviced, then your system will end up working harder than it needs to.
Regularly servicing the system will mean that it can continue to perform as per the manufacturer’s specifications. Without regular servicing and maintenance, the equipment will have to work harder to maintain the desired comfort level. That could mean more expensive energy bills and the failure of certain parts earlier than they should.
Maintenance protects your investment and ensures the long life of your system.
Minimises Costly Repairs
Many people don’t like the thought of having to pay for a service. But, let us ask you this question… would you rather pay the nominal fee for a service or have to pay to replace your whole heat pump or air conditioning system?
Just as we thought, the small service fee is much more attractive!
Our service engineers are trained to be proactive in highlighting the possible repair work needed to avoid equipment failure or breakdown in the future. This prevents the need for costly repairs down the track or needing a whole new system.
Decreases Health Issues
Dust is the enemy of anyone with allergies or respiratory issues. You could keep your home as clean as humanly possible, but if your heat pump or air conditioning unit is not serviced regularly, then the dust will keep cycling through the air.
But, dust is not even the worst of it.
Heat pump and air conditioning systems work by transferring air, heating or cooling it as needed. In order to do that, the air is drawn into the system to be fed back out at the desired temperature.
That means, everything that is floating around in that air is drawn into the system too. It can include dust and grime, but also germs, bacteria and other airborne pathogens. Those then get distributed into the air in your home unless the system is serviced.
A well maintainted system is a clean and healthy one, protecting the health of everyone within the home or workplace.
How Often Should You Service?
It is recommended that your heat pump or air conditioning system is serviced annually. During a service, the qualified technician will clean and flush the system, check all of the components, alert you or any repairs needed and carry out the repairs if instructed to.
Remember, that after a year, the efficiency of your system could have reduced by as much as 50% depending on your outdoor air conditions. It can mean increased power consumption, loss of cooling and heating capacity, increased chance of system failure, and the increased possibility of air contamination.
