The Top Six Reasons to Enroll in an HVAC Maintenance Contract
Your heating and cooling system is vital to a comfortable home and healthy indoor air. The furnace and air conditioner work hard in the background, heating, cooling, controlling the humidity and filtering your home’s indoor air. A lot of homeowners take these functions for granted until they’re forced to do without them. If your AC has ever broken down on a scorching summer day, or the furnace has stopped working during a blizzard, you understand what this is like firsthand.
No homeowner likes to deal with last minute repairs, a spike in energy bills or inconsistent home comfort. What if you could maintain a constant supply of healthy, climate controlled air when you want it most?
That’s where preventive HVAC maintenance comes in. Like receiving an oil change for your car, routine tune-ups are vital for keeping your HVAC system running at its best. And to get the most from each maintenance visit, you should look into applying for an HVAC maintenance contract.
This contract is an arrangement between you and a trusted HVAC contractor. Your membership takes the guesswork out of HVAC service by supplying routine maintenance, savings on repair work between scheduled service calls and other advantages. An HVAC maintenance contract is not required to schedule tune-ups with Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning, but we highly recommend enrolling. Here are six reasons why.
1. Automated Reminders to Schedule HVAC Maintenance
Life gets busier, so people often forget about scheduling furnace maintenance for the fall and air conditioning maintenance in the spring. With an HVAC membership, you’ll be sent scheduled reminders to get an appointment on your calendar. If you’re unfamiliar with why HVAC maintenance is so important, check out these benefits:
- Expose minor problems right away: Issues with your heating and cooling often progress gradually. When a technician checks the internal components each year, it’s possible to find and fix small problems before they turn into big headaches.
- Lower the risk of breakdowns: By fixing that loose fan belt and evening out the off-kilter blower motor during a maintenance visit, the likelihood of a mid-season breakdown diminishes.
- Smaller repair costs: Planned HVAC maintenance is an affordable, predictable expense that reduces the need for most major repairs.
- Enhance energy efficiency: The Department of Energy reports that annual maintenance can enhance HVAC efficiency by up to 30%, lowering your heating and cooling bills in the process.
- Boost home comfort: When your HVAC system functions the way it is supposed to, airflow improves for consistent temperatures and more comfortable humidity in your home.
- Prolong 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.
- Ensure safety: An equipment and safety inspection during each visit offers peace of mind that your heating and cooling system is performing safely.
- Adhere to your warranty: The bulk of HVAC manufacturers prioritize preventive maintenance so much that they necessitate once-a-year tune-ups to keep your warranty active. Investing a little in maintenance now protects you from expensive repairs that your warranty would otherwise cover.
2. Priority Service
Having an HVAC maintenance contract puts you at the front of the line when you request an emergency repair. You can typically expect same-day service—even on nights, weekends and holidays—thanks to 24/7/365 guaranteed priority service for members.
3. Priority Install
Thinking about replacing your home comfort system? An HVAC maintenance plan allows access to the fastest installs feasible, even during the most hectic weeks.
4. Discounted Repairs and Services
Routine maintenance reduces the need for repair service, but if your system needs some attention, having an HVAC maintenance plan entitles you to 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 completed 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 unhappy, our technician will return to make things right.
