FAQs
What does “proactive maintenance” for heating and air conditioning mean, and why is it so important in Petros?
Proactive maintenance is a scheduled, preventive service program designed to catch small issues with your furnace, heat pump, or air conditioner before they turn into expensive repairs or total breakdowns. In Petros, where winter nights dip below freezing and summer highs strain cooling equipment, a proactive approach keeps your system running reliably year-round, lowers utility costs, maintains manufacturer warranties, and extends equipment life by up to 30 %.
How often should my HVAC system be serviced under a proactive maintenance plan?
We recommend two precision tune-ups per year: one in early fall for heating equipment and another in spring for cooling components. These visits include filter replacement, safety checks, refrigerant and gas pressure testing, thermostat calibration, electrical tightening, and deep cleaning of coils, burners, and condensate drains. Sticking to this semi-annual schedule is the best way to ensure peak efficiency and avoid heat-repair emergencies in Petros’s coldest months.
What specific tasks are performed during a proactive heating maintenance visit?
During a fall or winter proactive visit, our certified technicians: • Inspect and clean burners, pilot assemblies, and heat exchangers for proper combustion and safety. • Test carbon monoxide levels and ensure adequate venting. • Lubricate blower and motor bearings, tighten belts, and check amp draws. • Replace or wash air filters to maximize airflow. • Verify thermostat accuracy and system safety controls. • Examine flue pipes for corrosion or blockage. • Document findings and provide a detailed report so you know the exact condition of your system.
Will proactive maintenance really save me money on energy bills?
Yes. A well-maintained HVAC system can operate 10 %–25 % more efficiently than a neglected one. Clean coils, correct refrigerant charge, and precise gas-air mixtures reduce run times and power consumption. In Petros, where electric rates and propane prices fluctuate, those savings can add up to hundreds of dollars a year—often more than covering the cost of the maintenance plan itself.
What signs indicate I may need heat repair rather than just routine maintenance?
You likely need heat repair if you notice: • Uneven or no heat output even after changing the filter. • Persistent banging, squealing, or grinding noises. • Unexplained spikes in energy bills. • Frequent cycling on and off or a furnace that won’t start. • An unexplained increase in indoor humidity or a musty odor. If any of these occur, call our Petros service line 24/7 for priority diagnostics—your maintenance plan members receive discounted repair rates.
Does your proactive maintenance plan come with any additional perks?
Absolutely. Members receive: • 15 % discount on all heat-repair labor and parts. • Priority scheduling—jump to the front of the line during peak season. • No after-hours emergency fees. • Transferable coverage if you sell your home in Petros. • Detailed maintenance records that can boost home resale value by proving your system’s care history.
