Heating Maintenance
Tune Up Your Furnace For Better Performance
Did you know that heating system maintenance keeps your system running longer and more efficiently than a system that is not maintained? Precision Greenville Heating & Cooling encourages you to keep down the cost of annual usage and repairs by getting regular service on your HVAC system.
Precision Greenville's 24-Point Maintenance Visit guarantees we'll tend to every part of your system ensuring optimum performance. We leave no stone unturned and leave you with an HVAC system that runs like new.
An HVAC expert will typically spend an hour performing a furnace tune-up. It can cost anywhere from $50 to $300. The cost may rise if new components are required or if the tune-up requires more than an hour.
In order to ensure proper temperature output, a furnace tune-up involves gas calibration, cleaning, and inspection of the furnace burner. This will keep your furnace running as efficiently as possible throughout the season in addition to ensuring safe operation. Here is a short list of some of the more crucial aspects of a furnace inspection and tune-up:
- System evaluation and safety measures
- Coils, burners, and component cleaning
- Parts that need to be cleaned and lubricated
- Modifying and maintaining electrical components
- Burning analysis
- Adapt the air/fuel ratios
- Examine and maintain flame sensors
- Burner soot should be removed
- Examining the heat exchanger
- Condenser fan motor capacitor testing
- Check for leaks in service valves.
- And more
We strongly advise having your furnace serviced and cleaned once a year. The best time of year to perform the maintenance is typically in the fall, just before you turn on your furnace for the winter. The service tune-goal up's is to maintain your system's peak performance throughout the season so you always have heat.
Precision's 24-Point HVAC Maintenance Visit:
Our Maintenance visits include a 24 point checklist to ensure that we see and tend to all of your unit's needs. We take each of the following steps to keep your system running well:
Clean the burner assembly to improve combustion, reducing waste heat. Turn the burners for more efficient burns, saving energy. Clean the ignition assembly to ensure reliable operation on demand. Clean and inspect the furnace heat section to ensure safe operation and the absence of cracks from metal fatigue. Verify the flue draft to ensure dangerous gas byproducts are properly venting to the outdoors and flue pipes are free from obstruction. Inspect the flue pipe to ensure no corrosion is present, which can lead to cracks and the introduction of dangerous fumes into your home. Calibrate the thermostat for accurate control to prevent the system from running longer than necessary, increasing utility usage. Test the refrigerant charge to ensure optimum levels, leading to lower utility usage and extend compressor life. Test the capacitors to ensure reliable operation and continued compressor and motor protection. Test the crankcase heaters to ensure proper compressor protection. Inspect and test all of the controls and safeties to keep operating costs low and prevent failures. Adjust the fan switch to prevent wasted energy and excess sound levels from nuisance cycling. Adjust the balancing dampers to improve comfort. Clean or replace the filters to reduce energy use, reduce compressor strain, improve indoor air quality and improve comfort. Clean and adjust the blower assembly to extend motor life, improve air quality and reduce sound. Check the airflow to ensure proper airflow across the coil for proper humidity removal and reliable operation. Visually inspect ductwork to identify obvious leaks that reduce system efficiency and increase utility expenses. Tighten the electrical connections to ensure uninterrupted system operation. Measure and record voltage and amperage to identify baseline operating conditions. Lubricate all of the moving parts to maintain efficiency and extend equipment life. Clean the inside of the evaporator coil to restore heat transfer efficiency, reduce utility cost and improve air quality. Clean the outside of the condensing coil to restore heat transfer efficiency and reduce utility costs. Clean the condensate drains to prevent water damage and the potential for mold formation. Measure the temperature difference to determine if there is an operating issue.
