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 around the clock in the background, heating, cooling, regulating the humidity and filtering your home’s indoor air. Many homeowners take these functions for granted until they’re forced to do without them. If your air conditioner has ever broken down on a blistering summer day, or the furnace has failed during a blizzard, you understand what this is like firsthand.

No homeowner likes to deal with emergency repairs, high energy bills or home comfort problems. What if there was a way to maintain an uninterrupted source of healthy, conditioned air when you want it most?

That’s where preventive HVAC maintenance comes in handy. Like getting an oil change for your car, routine tune-ups are a must for keeping your HVAC system up and running. And to get the most from each maintenance visit, you should look into applying for an HVAC maintenance contract.

This contract is an arrangement between you and a trusted HVAC contractor. Participation takes the guessing out of HVAC service by supplying routine maintenance, savings on repair work between scheduled service calls and other advantages. An HVAC maintenance contract isn’t required to request tune-ups with Service Experts Heating, Air Conditioning & Plumbing, 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 setting up furnace maintenance for the fall and air conditioning maintenance before the spring. With an HVAC membership, you’ll get friendly reminders to get an appointment on your calendar. If you’re unfamiliar with why HVAC maintenance is so worthwhile, consider these benefits:

• Uncover smaller problems early on: Issues with your HVAC equipment often progress little by little. When a technician examines the internal components once a year, it’s possible to find and resolve small problems before they turn into big headaches.
• Decrease the risk of breakdowns: By securing that loose fan belt and balancing the off-kilter blower motor during a maintenance call, the risk of an unexpected breakdown diminishes.
• Saving on repair costs: Planned HVAC maintenance is an affordable, foreseeable cost that eliminates the need for numerous major repairs.
• Improve energy efficiency: The Department of Energy reports that yearly maintenance can enhance HVAC efficiency by as high as 30%, reducing your heating and cooling bills simultaneously.

• Increase home comfort: When your heating and cooling system performs the way it is supposed to, airflow improves for consistent temperatures and more comfortable humidity throughout the house.
• Extend the system’s life span: A clean, tuned-up, well-lubricated HVAC system can live years longer versus a neglected one, saving you on early replacement equipment.
• Guarantee safety: An equipment and safety inspection during every visit offers peace of mind that your home comfort system is performing as intended.
• Protect your warranty: The bulk of HVAC manufacturers value preventive maintenance so much that they demand annual tune-ups to keep your warranty in good standing. Investing a little in upkeep now protects you from expensive repairs that your warranty should cover.

2. Priority Service

Having an HVAC maintenance agreement 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

Thinking about replacing your HVAC system? An HVAC contract gives you access to the most rapid installs feasible, even during the busiest times of year.

4. Marked Down Repairs and Services

Preventive maintenance lowers the need for repair work, but if your system needs some attention, having an HVAC maintenance plan grants a 15% discount. You’ll also receive 15% off indoor air quality products, like pleated filters, whole-house humidifiers and charged media air cleaners.

5. Repair Guarantee

How can you ensure the technician has completed 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 disappointed, your technician will return to correct things.
