It’s about to heat up here in Canoga Park. Make sure the air conditioner (AC) is primed for the California summer heat rays by scheduling a seasonal maintenance visit.

Taking care of the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment keeps it at top-rate efficiency. It starts with changing the HVAC air filter at least every 90 days. An air conditioning unit with a consistently clean filter uses up to 15 percent less energy, according to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).

Seasonal maintenance visit

Plus, the filter catches dust and debris, creating healthy indoor air quality (IAQ). Allow their team at Tassio Temperature Control to handle the seasonal maintenance for all the heating and cooling equipment. Schedule a tune-up for early spring to restore the AC and enjoy the maximum mileage and efficiency from the investment.

Why Schedule AC Maintenance?  - Maintaining the AC is a critical part of homeownership. Just like the car, cooling system is a complex machine that gets lots of use. That’s why most manufacturers require maintenance as part of the warranty policy. Seasonal check-ups keep the equipment working efficiently and help it to last longer. Additionally, HVAC specialist will be able to catch minor faults and make corrections before they turn into costly repairs.

Cycle liquid refrigerant

What Happens During a Maintenance Visit?

Here are a few maintenance items from their checklist:

  • Clean off the Coils - The evaporator and condenser coils cycle liquid refrigerant, facilitating the cooling process. Over time, these components naturally collect dust and debris. If the coils don’t get scrubbed, the AC can’t correctly cool the California home.
  • Kill and remove mildew and mold - AC pulls moisture out of the air and converts it to water. From there, the water travels down the condensate drain. Over time, the damp environment may attract mildew and mold. The specialist must clean the condensate drain to avoid clogging and protect the air quality.
  • Replace broken parts - When a small part of the AC breaks, it may not be noticeable right away. However, if left unchecked, it can eventually cause a chain reaction leading to a much costlier repair. Canoga Park HVAC specialist will check for minor issues like chipped fins or missing screws.
  • Check refrigerant levels - Leaks happen when the refrigerant line gets punctured or comes loose. This can prevent the equipment from cooling all altogether. Additionally, the liquid can cause damage to other parts of the AC. The specialist will test refrigerant levels, refilling, and patching leaks if necessary.
  • Check airflow and inspect for leaky ducts - Leaky ducts are a top contributor to high utility bills. The specialist will use equipment to pinpoint leaks and see whether duct sealing or insulation is necessary.
