The Top Six Reasons to Enroll in an HVAC Maintenance Contract 

Your heating and cooling system is essential to a sense of comfort and healthy indoor air. The furnace and air conditioner work around the clock in the background, heating, cooling, regulating the humidity and filtering your indoor air. Many homeowners take this functionality for granted until they’re forced to do without them. If your AC has ever stopped working on a blistering summer day, or the furnace has stopped working during a blizzard, you understand what this is like firsthand.

No homeowner likes to deal with urgent repairs, higher energy bills or inconsistent home comfort. What if you could maintain a constant supply of healthy, conditioned air when you need it most?

That’s where preventive HVAC maintenance comes into play. Like getting an oil change for your car, regularly scheduled tune-ups are a must for keeping your HVAC system up and running. And to get the maximum from each maintenance visit, you should think about signing up for an HVAC maintenance contract.

This contract is an arrangement between you and a trusted HVAC contractor. Participation takes the uncertainty out of HVAC service by delivering routine maintenance, savings on repair work between scheduled visits and other perks. An HVAC maintenance contract isn’t required to ask for tune-ups with Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning, but we highly encourage signing up. Here are six reasons why.

1. Automated Reminders to Schedule HVAC Maintenance

Life gets busier, so it’s easy to forget about requesting furnace maintenance in the fall and air conditioning maintenance before 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, take a look at these benefits:

• Uncover minor problems early: Issues with your heating and cooling tend to form gradually. When a technician inspects the internal components once a year, it’s possible to pinpoint and fix little problems before they become big headaches.
• Lower the risk of equipment failures: By fixing that loose fan belt and balancing the off-kilter blower motor during a maintenance visit, the chance of a mid-season breakdown goes down.
• Saving on repair costs: Planned HVAC maintenance is an affordable, predictable expense that eliminates the need for most major repairs.
• Improve energy efficiency: The Department of Energy reports that yearly maintenance can boost HVAC efficiency by as high as 30%, reducing your heating and cooling bills at the same time.

• Boost home comfort: When your heating and cooling system performs the way it should, airflow improves for even temperatures and more manageable humidity in your home.
• Lengthen the system’s life span: A clean, tuned-up, well-lubricated HVAC system can last years longer versus a neglected one, saving you on untimely replacement expenses.
• Ensure safety: An equipment and safety evaluation during each visit delivers peace of mind that your HVAC system is running like it’s supposed to.
• Protect your warranty: The majority of HVAC manufacturers prioritize preventive maintenance to such a degree that they require yearly tune-ups to keep your warranty active. Investing a little in upkeep now safeguards you from pricey repairs that your warranty will 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 during nights, weekends and holidays—thanks to 24/7/365 guaranteed priority service for members.

3. Priority Install

Thinking about replacing your heating and cooling system? An HVAC maintenance plan gives you access to the most rapid installs feasible, even during the busiest weeks.

4. Marked Down Repairs and Services

Routine maintenance reduces the need for repair work, but if your system needs some attention, having an HVAC maintenance plan provides a 15% discount. You’ll also enjoy 15% off indoor air quality products, such as pleated filters, whole-house humidifiers and charged media air cleaners.

5. Repair Guarantee

How can you be sure the technician has executed 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 dissatisfied, the technician will return to correct things.
