FAQs
What exactly is a precision tune-up for heating and air conditioning?
A precision tune-up is a comprehensive, step-by-step inspection, cleaning, and adjustment of every critical component in your furnace, heat pump, or central air conditioner. Our Whitwell technicians use calibrated instruments to verify airflow, refrigerant charge, electrical performance, safety controls, and combustion efficiency, then make adjustments to restore your system to factory-fresh specifications.
How often should I schedule a precision tune-up for my Whitwell home?
For Whitwell’s humid summers and cool, damp winters, we recommend two tune-ups per year—one in early spring for your air conditioner or heat pump’s cooling mode, and one in early fall for your furnace or heat pump’s heating mode. Semi-annual service keeps equipment efficient through rapid seasonal temperature swings and helps you stay ahead of unexpected breakdowns.
What does your precision tune-up include?
Our 25-point checklist covers: refrigerant level verification and adjustment, thermostat calibration, static pressure testing, blower wheel cleaning, condenser and evaporator coil cleaning, electrical connection tightening, amp-draw testing, safety limit switch inspection, burner assembly or heat exchanger examination, condensate drain clearing, air filter replacement (standard sizes), and a written performance report with any repair recommendations.
Will a tune-up really save me money on energy bills?
Yes. Dirty coils, loose electrical connections, and low refrigerant can cut system efficiency by 15–30 %. A precision tune-up restores optimal heat transfer and airflow, so your system cycles less often, uses fewer kilowatt-hours, and maintains set temperatures more easily. Most Whitwell customers recoup the cost of the service through lower utility bills within a single season.
Does a precision tune-up keep my equipment warranty valid?
Most manufacturers, including Trane, Carrier, and Lennox, require documented annual maintenance by a licensed professional to honor parts warranties. We provide a digital service record after every tune-up that meets or exceeds manufacturers’ maintenance requirements, protecting your warranty and avoiding costly claims denials.
How long will the appointment take, and do I need to be home?
A standard precision tune-up usually takes 60–90 minutes per system. We ask that an adult be present to grant access, answer any comfort concerns, and review our findings. If you can’t be home, we can arrange secure access and email your performance report, but we recommend at least being available by phone to authorize any minor repairs discovered during the inspection.
