Since your heat pump serves two functions—keeping your home or office building cool during the summer and warm in the winter—it requires maintenance twice a year. To prepare your structure for the colder months ahead, Baldwin Services in Gray, GA, recommends hiring a commercial heating contractor to complete routine maintenance this fall. By doing so, you’ll increase energy efficiency, extend the lifespan of your system, and reduce the chances of a breakdown.

Here are several reasons to hire a residential or commercial heating company to prep your heat pump for the winter:

• Prevent Breakdowns: Over the course of the year, your heat pump goes from one extreme to the other as it switches from cooling your space to keeping it warm. This puts excessive stress on the system, which increases the likelihood of malfunctions or breakdowns. By getting maintenance completed on your heat pump before winter, you’re guaranteeing a season of comfort and warmth.
• Ensure A Longer Life: Just like with any piece of machinery with moving parts, regular maintenance from a certified professional lengthens its life and keeps its parts in perfect working condition. You’ll get more value out of your investment by having these commercial heating experts complete annual inspections and tuneups on your heat pump.
• Improve Efficiency: The better condition your heat pump is in, the less energy it requires to run efficiently. To save money on your utility bills and decrease your carbon footprint over the course of the year, schedule maintenance services now before the cold weather sets in.

Scheduling routine heat pump maintenance with a residential or commercial heating contractor will keep your home or workspace warm this winter. To set up an appointment with Baldwin Services, call (478) 452-9499 or visit them online to view a complete list of services.
