Summers in the Willamette Valley area can range from mild to downright hot, and whether you need to crank up the heat on cool nights or turn on the air conditioning during the day, it pays to make sure your HVAC system has been serviced routinely.

Mill Creek Heating has been providing air conditioning services to Oregon residents for approximately 15 years and recommends getting your HVAC unit tuned up before the summer arrives. This is particularly important because emergency repairs are costlier than regular maintenance. Here are three ways your HVAC system will benefit from a tuneup now.

3 Reasons You Should Schedule Service for Your HVAC System Now

1. It Extends the Life of Your System

The average lifespan of an air conditioning system is 15 to 20 years, but without regular maintenance, that amount drastically decreases. Air conditioning service should include regular changing of the filters, lubricating all moving parts, tightening wires and connections, and monitoring the coolant levels and operating pressure. Regularly maintained units experience fewer repairs.

2. It Improves Your Utility Costs

HVAC repairsWhen air conditioning systems are regularly serviced, technicians monitor and improve their energy efficiency. In return, this keeps your utility costs from rising due to machines that require more energy because they’re dirty or damaged.

3. Emergency Repairs Are Avoided

When air conditioning systems fail, there were almost always warning signs leading up to the breakdown. Annual inspections give technicians the chance to spot, diagnose, and repair problems before they escalate into expensive and major repairs. This also prevents you from losing heat or cool air when you need it most.

When clients order air conditioning service from Mill Creek Heating, they can expect qualified technicians to calibrate their thermostats, check the filters, measure airflow, and generally ensure their HVAC systems are running perfectly.
