Is Your HVAC System Ready for Winter? Here’s What You Need to Do

Winter is coming! We all know you need to be prepared for the cold weather, but did you know that you also need to get your heating and air system ready? With Eagle Heating and Air Conditioning, you can get your HVAC system prepped before the cold weather hits so that you’ll be warm and comfortable throughout the season. There are four steps we recommend taking.

Change Your Furnace Filter

A dirty filter can cause you to lose a lot of heating efficiency. This is because a dirty filter reduces airflow. This, in turn, can make you lose a lot of heat and have to use more energy to keep you warm.

Checking and replacing your filter is a relatively simple process that you can do yourself. You can also call Eagle Heating and Air Conditioning to replace your filter as part of a routine maintenance visit.

Switch on the Furnace a Few Times Before Winter

It’s a good idea to turn on your furnace before winter so that you know everything is working properly before the cold weather hits. This step can help you uncover any problems you might not be aware of, such as a faulty thermostat or uneven heating. If you turn on your furnace and notice any issues, you can get Eagle Heating and Air Conditioning to help you fix them so that you’re ready for cold weather.

Clean and Assess the Outside Condenser Coils

A dirty outside condenser coil can make you lose a lot of heating and cooling efficiency. This is because dirt and debris on the coil reduce airflow, which can make you lose energy and have less warm air coming inside your home. To save money during the cold months while also preventing problems with your HVAC’s performance, you should call Eagle Heating and Air Conditioning to clean and assess your condenser coils. If there are any repairs or replacements that need to be done, we will help you out.

Get a Tune-Up

Having an HVAC tune-up before the cold weather arrives is like getting your car checked out by a mechanic before you begin a long winter trip. It’s important to get an inspection on the system you rely on so much in order to make sure everything works properly.

During a tune-up, an HVAC professional will clean internal components, adjust airflow and filter systems, check for leaks in gas and refrigerant lines, and replace any parts that are worn out or broken. Eagle Heating and Air Conditioning is one of the best in the business when it comes to heating and AC services. With us, you can trust that you’ll be getting quality service.
