Ways To Maintain Your HVAC System

You can maintain an HVAC system a number of different ways. Odds are during winter months your heater runs all day attempting to keep the home warm. In fact its usually on more than it must be because it is incapable of maintaining an efficient climate. There are several areas in the heating section to take a look at when troubleshooting for efficiency.

Air Filters

This part is what gets mentioned the most in conversations about heating maintenance but is usually overlooked. If there is a blockage you either run the risk of not circulating heat appropriately or perhaps igniting a fire|When the air conditioner filter gets dirty air cannot flow through as well which suggests the unit must work harder and will also mean a risk of fire. If the system is not circulating heat effectively it is working overtime. The fire issue is self-explanatory. Neither situation is good for your bank account or your well-being..

Blower

Have a look at the blower blades to make sure they are free of crap. Should there be any buildup of dirt and dust your fan will work overtime to blow the air around and your heating system will be overexerting itself. Therefore strain in your HVAC system and your pocketbook since more fuel is needed to continually run the blower.

Fire Damper

Next look at the fire damper to make sure it is running correctly. This will ensure that the risk of fire is minimal and the system will work more proficiently.

The Flex Duct

Air ducts get bumped into over the years. If a duct has collapsed or become stopped up the system will believe that the proper temperature has been achieved which will not be true. When this happens the furnace works too much to do its job but is going to be incapable to attain the right temperature.

Band Insulation

It is easy to miss the insulation but is probably the most common reason for a system out of order. Be sure to look at the insulation and confirm it has not become wobbly and resulted in gaps between the ductwork and the exterior. If this has happened your system will not reach optimal temperatures and will work overtime to attempt to accommodate.

Ductwork

Make sure the ductwork is connected everywhere to all sections. Disconnected ductwork will allow heated air leak out and naturally add to the running costs.

The Return Air Inlets

Be sure to check that return air intakes are clean and in good shape or your system will be out of kilter.

The Zone Dampers

Check out the zone dampers to check if they are in the correct spot. Through the year we could change the position of the damper for a lot of reasons (i.e. getting into a tight space or arranging for storage). Check to see that the dampers are actually in the correct position too.

If these everyday jobs are more than what you are confident with it may be wise to appoint an area heating service licensed for HVAC and gas furnaces. You ought to be able to easily find a reputable heating company who will look after this for you. The best advice we can provide is to set up yearly maintenance for this appliance.
