HVAC maintenance tasks vary greatly from a heat pump tune-up conducted by a licensed professional. Maintenance tasks function to ensure the system operates properly and the customer can complete many of these tasks. Customers often request an annual tune-up to improve the system’s performance, and this service is best performed by a trained HVAC technician.
Homeowners often use the terms interchangeably. How does an annual tune-up differ from heat pump annual maintenance? Summers Plumbing Heating and Cooling happily explains the similarities and differences between the services to customers. In addition, we take on both services on behalf of our customers.
What Does the Technician Do During a Heat Pump Tune-Up?
During the heat pump tune-up, the technician works to improve the efficiency of the unit. They conduct some of the same tasks performed during a maintenance visit. Others, however, are typically only done when the system is undergoing a tune-up.
The technician inspects the outdoor compressor unit to ensure it is running properly. They may recommend moving items away from the unit to allow it to perform more efficiently. They will also clean the condenser drain.
Lubricating the blades and motors is part of this service visit. In addition, the technician inspects the components of the internal system to make certain they operate as intended. They clean the evaporator coil and test the compressor amp as the system starts up.
The technician may also walk through preventative maintenance tasks with the homeowner. Although the homeowner can complete some of these tasks, others are better left to one of our licensed technicians. They have the tools and training to do the job right.
The unit won’t need to work as hard to heat or cool the home following a tune-up. This allows the homeowner to save money on their energy bills each month. In addition, both maintenance and tune-ups help to reduce the risk of a system breakdown and the need for repair or replacement of the heat pump.
Summers Plumbing Heating and Cooling technicians work with clients to ensure they understand the importance of both heat pump annual maintenance and tune-ups. When a homeowner has these tasks carried out regularly, system performance improves.
How a Heat Pump Tune-Up Differs From Maintenance
Customers often ask our technicians why they need two different service calls. The focus of each call is different, although there are similarities between the two.
The focus of a maintenance call is to clean and inspect the unit to detect problems early before the system fails completely or a failing part affects other internal components in the system. In contrast, a tune-up works to improve the system’s performance. The technician inspects the various components of the system to see if any are failing, but they also examine them to see if they can improve their performance.
Summers Plumbing Heating and Cooling technicians carry out preventative maintenance tasks and annual tune-ups on behalf of customers. Our goal is to ensure our customers’ heat pumps remain operational all year long, as we want people to remain comfortable in their own homes.
We have technicians on call around the clock for repairs. However, the need for these repairs decreases with heat pump maintenance and an annual tune-up. Thanks to the work our technicians do, the heat pump runs optimally at all times when the homeowner routinely schedules these services
