In part one of this two-part blog series, we looked at some of the basic operational areas that HVAC professionals look at during a fall tune-up or inspection of your system. These appointments are vital each year, helping ensure your system is in great shape ahead of the changing seasons, and several different key elements are covered.
At Airtime Heating & Cooling, we're here to help with all your precision tune-up needs for your HVAC system this fall, whether you're in Draper, Lehi, Bluffdale, Herriman or any nearby area. While part one of our series went over operational areas checked during a fall tune-up, such as filters, the pilot light, the thermostat and more, today's part two will look into some safety and efficiency-related areas we also check into.
During any HVAC tune-up, our technicians will always check for any potential gas leaks or carbon monoxide (CO2) issues. These are areas that could be hazardous to the occupants of a home if not checked into – and we take pride in ensuring your safety.
We'll evaluate all accessible gas connections for leaks before checking the heat exchanger for possible cracks or damage. This is important because these types of damages can lead to CO2 leaks and potentially dangerous situations.
One component that falls under both safety and efficiency categories is the heat exchanger. We'll thoroughly check for any corrosion, rust or cracks that could compromise its effectiveness in heating your home. If any issues are found, we'll discuss repair or replacement options with you and provide an estimate for the cost.
During a fall tune-up, our technicians will also assess all electrical connections on your HVAC system to make sure they're functioning properly and aren't at risk of starting a fire or damaging your system. This includes checking the wiring, capacitors, relays and other connections.
Two important pieces we'll inspect in your HVAC system are the blower motor and capacitator. The blower motor is responsible for circulating air throughout your home, while the capacitator helps provide extra energy when needed. We'll make sure these components are in proper working order and replace them if necessary.
Properly maintaining your HVAC system is crucial for both safety and efficiency purposes. Our precision tune-ups cover all areas of operation, safety, and efficiency to ensure your system is running at its best this fall.
