The Top Six Reasons to Enroll in an HVAC Maintenance Contract 

Your heating and cooling system is essential to a comfortable home and high air quality. The furnace and air conditioner work tirelessly in the background, heating, cooling, controlling the humidity and filtering your home’s indoor air. A lot of homeowners take this functionality for granted until they have to do without them. If your air conditioning has ever stopped working on a blistering summer day, or the furnace has failed during a blizzard, you can understand what this is like firsthand.

No homeowner wishes to deal with emergency repairs, higher energy bills or home comfort problems. What if you had a way to guarantee an uninterrupted source of healthy, climate controlled air when you need it most?

That’s where preventive HVAC maintenance comes in handy. Like obtaining an oil change for your car, routine tune-ups are vital for keeping your HVAC system running at its best. And to get the maximum from each maintenance visit, you should look into enrolling in an HVAC maintenance contract.

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

1. Automatic Reminders to Schedule HVAC Maintenance

Life gets busier, so it’s easy to forget about scheduling furnace maintenance for the fall and air conditioning maintenance in the spring. With an HVAC membership, you’ll receive scheduled reminders to get an appointment on your calendar. If you’re not sure why HVAC maintenance is so beneficial, take a look at these benefits:

• Reveal small problems early: Issues with your home comfort system usually form little by little. When a technician inspects the internal components annually, it’s possible to find and fix little problems before they grow to be big headaches.
• Decrease the risk of equipment failures: By tightening that loose fan belt and balancing the off-kilter blower motor during a maintenance call, the likelihood of a mid-season breakdown decreases.
• Smaller repair costs: Routine HVAC maintenance is an affordable, expected amount that reduces the need for many major repairs.
• Enhance energy efficiency: The Department of Energy reports that once-a-year maintenance can enhance HVAC efficiency by up to 30%, lowering your heating and cooling bills simultaneously.

• Increase home comfort: When your home comfort system performs the way it is supposed to, airflow improves for pleasant temperatures and more comfortable humidity in your home.
• Lengthen the system’s life span: A clean, tuned-up, well-lubricated HVAC system can last years longer compared to a neglected one, saving you on early replacement equipment.
• Guarantee safety: An equipment and safety assessment during each visit delivers peace of mind that your HVAC system is working safely.
• Adhere to your warranty: The bulk of HVAC manufacturers prioritize preventive maintenance to such a degree that they demand yearly tune-ups to keep your warranty in good standing. Investing a little in maintenance now safeguards you from costly repairs that your warranty will cover.

2. Priority Service

Having an HVAC maintenance contract puts you at the front of the line when you call to request an emergency repair. You can usually expect same-day service—even during nights, weekends and holidays—thanks to 24/7/365 guaranteed priority service for members.

3. Priority Install

Planning to replace your HVAC system? An HVAC contract gives you access to the quickest installs available, even during the busiest times of year.

4. Discount on Repairs and Services

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

5. Repair Guarantee

How can you ensure 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 results leave you unhappy, the technician will return to correct things.
