FAQs
How often should I schedule HVAC maintenance in Madisonville?
We recommend two professional tune-ups per year—one in spring for your air conditioner and one in fall for your furnace or heat pump. Madisonville’s humid summers and cool, occasionally icy winters place stress on both systems, so biannual service keeps them efficient, prolongs equipment life, and helps you avoid unexpected breakdowns during peak-use months.
What does a standard maintenance visit include?
Our certified technicians perform a 20- to 30-point inspection that covers cleaning condenser and evaporator coils, checking refrigerant levels, tightening electrical connections, testing thermostat calibration, inspecting heat exchangers for cracks, lubricating moving parts, clearing condensate drains, and verifying overall system safety. We’ll also change or clean your air filter and provide a written report of any concerns.
Will maintenance really save me money?
Yes. A well-maintained system can operate up to 20% more efficiently, lowering your monthly energy bills. Routine maintenance also catches small issues—like loose belts or low refrigerant—before they escalate into costly repairs or full system replacement. In many cases, the energy savings and repair avoidance offset the price of the maintenance visit within a single season.
Do you offer maintenance plans or service agreements?
Absolutely. Our Comfort Care Plan includes two precision tune-ups per year, priority scheduling, no overtime fees, and a 10% discount on repairs and indoor air-quality accessories. Members also receive transferable benefits should you sell your Madisonville home, which can be an attractive perk for buyers.
What are signs my HVAC system needs immediate attention?
Call us right away if you notice weak airflow, warm air coming from vents in cooling mode, strange noises (grinding, banging, squealing), frequent on-off cycling, unexplained spikes in utility bills, or any burning or musty odors. These symptoms often indicate problems like blower motor failure, refrigerant leaks, or electrical issues that can worsen quickly without prompt service.
Will maintenance keep my manufacturer’s warranty valid?
Yes. Most HVAC manufacturers require documented annual or biannual professional maintenance to keep warranties in force. Skipping tune-ups could leave you responsible for the full cost of parts and labor if a covered component fails. Our maintenance visits are logged and we can provide proof of service should a warranty claim arise.
