Geothermal heating and cooling systems are praised for their ability to last for many years and run efficiently with very few repairs. Because of this, you may assume you won’t have to call an HVAC technician to your home for years to come after installation, but this isn’t necessarily true. There are a couple of instances when you should have a technician visit your home, and most experts recommend scheduling service at least once a year. The following advice can help you to decide when it’s the right time for geothermal service in Redmond.
Annual Maintenance
While you may be able to get by without many repairs for several years, neglecting to call for geothermal service can come with a cost. Although your system may appear to be in top working order, you’ll never know unless you call an expert for a maintenance visit. Professional maintenance can help your unit to run more efficiently, reduce the potential for repairs, and keep your unit in top shape for the rest of the year. Experts will clean and adjust various components of your system and perform a thorough inspection so you can have some peace of mind about the working order of your unit.
When to Schedule Repairs
It’s important to remember that you should never wait to schedule geothermal repairs. If you notice any sort of problem with your geothermal system, from a major breakdown to a small noise in the ducts, you should call for service right away as the problem may be more than you expect. While reduced cooling or heating power, for example, could be due to a loose part, it could also mean a major refrigerant leak that is causing other parts in your unit to struggle.
Make sure to schedule repairs as soon as possible with professionals who know the ins and outs of geothermal systems. These units are much different from standard air conditioners and could take the inexperienced contractor too long to diagnose and repair. Call as soon as you notice strange noises, reduced heating, or any other problem with the unit—big or small.
