What Happens During HVAC Preventative Maintenance in Wichita

What a typical visit includes

• A visual inspection of the whole system
• Checking electrical connections for wear
• Checking refrigerant charge on an AC system
• Checking and clearing the condensate drain, which can clog and cause water damage or shutdowns
• Checking or replacing the air filter
• Testing the thermostat’s calibration and signal to the system
• Testing safety controls on a furnace
• Lubricating moving parts and cleaning coils

Why it’s worth doing

Most of the emergency no-cool and no-heat calls trace back to something that had been building for a while — a slow refrigerant leak, a clogged drain, a part wearing out. A yearly check catches those early, protects the system’s expected lifespan, and keeps it running efficiently.

How often

Generally once a year per system — AC in spring before the heat arrives, furnace in fall before the cold does — which covers both systems across the year.
