FAQs
Why is annual HVAC maintenance important in Alcoa’s climate?
Alcoa experiences hot, humid summers and chilly winters, which means your heating and cooling equipment works year-round. Annual maintenance ensures that critical components are cleaned, lubricated, and tested before each extreme season. This proactive care reduces the likelihood of unexpected breakdowns, maximizes energy efficiency, and extends the life span of your system in our variable East Tennessee weather.
What does your annual maintenance service include for heating and AC systems?
Our comprehensive tune-up covers both the heating and cooling sides of your equipment. For air conditioning, we clean coils, check refrigerant levels, tighten electrical connections, calibrate the thermostat, clear the condensate drain, and inspect the blower motor. For heating, we examine heat exchangers for safety, test ignition systems, verify gas or electric connections, adjust burners, and replace or clean filters. We also provide a written report with any recommendations for repairs or upgrades.
How often should I schedule maintenance for my furnace and air conditioner?
We recommend two visits per year: one in the spring for the air conditioner and one in the fall for the furnace or heat pump. Scheduling service ahead of peak heating and cooling seasons ensures optimal performance when you need it most and allows time to address any issues before temperatures swing.
Will annual maintenance lower my energy bills?
Yes. A properly tuned system operates with less strain, allowing it to reach your set temperature more quickly while using less electricity or fuel. Cleaning coils, changing filters, and calibrating controls can improve efficiency by 10–20%, which translates directly into lower monthly utility costs for most Alcoa homeowners.
Can regular tune-ups keep my manufacturer’s warranty valid?
Most HVAC manufacturers require proof of routine professional maintenance to honor parts warranties. Our annual maintenance plans provide the documented service records you need, protecting you from out-of-pocket expenses if a covered component fails prematurely.
What makes your HVAC technicians qualified to service systems in Alcoa?
Our technicians are NATE-certified, licensed by the state of Tennessee, and receive ongoing factory training on the latest HVAC technologies.
