With the onset of the cold Virginia winter, followed by the blistering summer heat, you want to ensure your HVAC system is always in its best working condition. By scheduling your HVAC system maintenance early, you can detect and repair problems before they cause system breakdowns.
The optimal time to prepare your HVAC system for colder months is late summer to early fall, while late winter to early spring is the best time to prepare for the warmer months. Preparing early allows for a thorough inspection of the compressors, evaporator coils, thermal expansion valves, and ductwork for faults and replacements.Â
