The Importance of Regular HVAC Maintenance

Updated: Oct 7, 2024

Regular HVAC maintenance is crucial for ensuring the longevity and efficiency of your system. At Hing Air, we specialize in HVAC and refrigeration service installations and maintenance, and we understand the value of keeping your system in top shape. Here’s why regular maintenance is essential and how it can benefit you.


Common Issues with Neglected HVAC Systems


Every summer, cooling units often struggle to maintain the desired temperature. Our experience at Hing Air shows that 50% of these problems are due to dirty condenser coils and a lack of proper maintenance. Here’s how these issues affect your system:


1. Temperature Control Problems: Dirty condenser coils impede heat transfer, causing your unit to work harder and still fail to cool effectively.

2. Reduced Lifespan: When heat is not adequately removed, it gets trapped in the unit, causing the compressor to operate under high pressure and high-temperature conditions. This strain can break down the compressor oil, leading to acid buildup and restrictions in the system. Over time, the acidic oil corrodes the copper components, resulting in refrigerant leaks and potentially thousands of dollars in repair costs.

3. Increased Energy Consumption: A poorly maintained unit consumes more energy to achieve the same cooling effect, leading to higher energy bills.

4. Expensive Repairs: Regular maintenance helps catch small issues before they escalate into significant problems, saving you from costly repairs.

5. Improved Comfort and Efficiency: A well-maintained HVAC system provides consistent and efficient cooling, ensuring a comfortable environment year-round.
