What Routine
Maintenance do I Need Help With?
Think about how you take care of your car. Sure, most people
can handle the little stuff - checking and topping off fluids,
keeping tires inflated to the correct pressure, changing the
wiper blades. But, to keep your car operating at its best,
you need an occasional tune-up from a trained professional.
Your heating and cooling system is no different.
To get the most performance and longest life from your system,
it's a good idea to have a professional perform routine checks
in the spring and in the fall.
Spring maintenance
In the spring, Pro-Air can typically check a heat pump or air
conditioner for all or some of the following:
- operating pressures
- refrigerant charge
- filter condition
- compressor
- fan motor
- capacitors
- belts
- crankcase heaters
- coils cleaning
- lubrication of moving parts
Fall maintenance
In the fall, you can expect Pro-Air to check your furnace in
the following areas:
- burner and pilot assemblies
- cracks in the heat exchanger
- check the pilot thermocouple
- examine the filter and check vent piping
- test the electronic ignition
- test the fan
- test the limit switch
- burner adjustments
- measure manifold gas pressure
- measure temperature rise
- carbon monoxide test
- set the heat anticipator
- check and adjust belt tension
