Preventative Maintenance for Your HVAC

Unanticipatedly high energy expenses are never enjoyable, especially when you try to minimize how much you use your HVAC and other appliances. That's why it's important to stay on top of your game when it comes to maintaining your HVAC system. Here at Best Owner Direct HVAC, our mission is to help you prolong the life span of your HVAC unit and help you avoid expensive repairs.


Staying Clear Of Unforeseen HVAC Costs

Your air conditioner works hard to keep your home cool and comfy during the warmer months, so it's normal for concerns such as bad calibration, used parts, or an absence of lubrication to take place over time. Unfortunately, these can lead to your device operating inefficiently or even failing. When these issues aren't attended to promptly, you can end up paying more money due to weaker performance.


Temporary Air Conditioning Upkeep

A well-kept HVAC system can last for over 10 years. There are lots of short-term techniques that you can adopt to keep your HVAC device working for a long time. This will also help you can stay on top of any issues and prevent damages and unanticipated HVAC repair costs.

Preventative Maintenance

Constant check-ups can prevent problems before they even start. Prolong your HVAC's lifespan by getting routine tune-ups, right before summer. At Best Owner Direct HVAC, we offer everything you need to take full control over your heating and cooling unit, from smart thermostats to area control systems.


Give Your HVAC System a Break Sometimes

Running your HVAC frequently can cause it to get damaged more quickly, so make sure to provide your device a break whenever you can. For example, turn the system off when you have doors or large windows open so it doesn't run overtime. Investing in followers can also take some stress off of your unit on moderately cozy days, saving you both money and energy.


Clean Your HVAC Unit Regularly

You need to clean your outside HVAC devices regularly to avoid mechanical failure. This includes changing the air filters and also removing dust and particles that have been collected in the system. Make sure your exterior HVAC unit is located flat on the ground to avoid water damage when there's rain.


Use a Programmable Thermostat

Using a programmable thermostat is a fantastic way to moderate when your device is running, specifically overnight or when nobody's home. This enables your device to react automatically to your home's heating and cooling demands.


Long-Term Maintenance

Regular upkeep from a certified HVAC business will keep your unit running efficiently for longer. Having regular maintenance can supply home owners with many benefits, including lower utility bills, fewer yearly repairs, and boosted device capability.

    Been using them for years after the owner Kevin showed up so fast when our furnace went out one year. Been a fan since! Now, Danny is so great to work with, also. So friendly, knowledgable, fast. You guys are the best!

    Danny came out on a Saturday to diagnosis and fix my mom’s hvac unit.   He was able to quickly determine what the problem was and had all the parts to complete the repair right then.  His communication was clear and did a really good job helping us understand what caused the issue.  I would definitely recommend him and will be calling his company with any needs in the future. Thanks again!

    Fantastic customer service! I had a furnace issue, called late morning and they fit me in for diagnostic right away. Technician was extremely knowledgable, walked me thru everything he found - unfortunately needed a new furnace (was 24 years old anyways), got it scheduled and installed within 24 hours as everything was in the warehouse (probably got lucky on what we needed). Overall excellent customer service, from scheduling to diagnostic, to installation. Highly recommend.

    WOW! So impressed with so many aspects of this company. We had an animal die under the house in and could smell it coming out of the vents. When I called around, pest control was weeks out and Best Owner Direct was able to come the next day. Our technician, Danny was absolutely INCREDIBLE! Very professional, kind and made sure we had the problem taken care of the same day so we could breathe again! I look forward to continuing to work with them in the future for our HVAC needs.

    Daniel was excellent, attentive to detail and committed to completing all tasks other installers overlooked. He worked tirelessly into the evening making sure everything was working properly with a water heather install, and he had a great attitude all along.

    Excellent customer service, great communications answering all of our questions, left the site clean, and very respectful of our space within the house. Arranged to have someone come from the office later in the week to explain how the thermostat works.
