Spring Maintenance For Your Chicago HVAC System

Our spring maintenance service includes these six repair and maintenance procedures:

We examine your indoor evaporator and condenser coils, blower fans, and control panels. If any of these components are dirty, we clean them as needed and lubricate all moving parts, such as fans.

Air filters remove particulates and airborne contaminants to make it easier and more comfortable to breathe in your facility. We check all of your filters and replace as needed to ensure the highest air quality throughout the spring and summer. Regularly changing air filters also helps to improve system performance and reduce operating expenses.

We check your outdoor cabinet containing the condenser units and other components for cleanliness and to ensure optimal airflow. We then straighten or repair any damaged coils and clean the cabinet as needed.

We check your system controls to ensure they’re operating as intended. At the same time, we ensure that equipment turns on and off as it should to minimize utility costs. We also check and calibrate your thermostats so that they display the correct temperature readings. We clean and tighten all electrical connections, because even slight vibrations can eventually cause connections to loosen and potentially damage your equipment.

Without the appropriate level of refrigerant in your system, it won’t run as efficiently as it should. We verify that your system has the right level of refrigerant according to manufacturer specifications. If there are signs of a leak, we pinpoint the source to reduce the risk that you’ll experience a critical cooling system failure during peak season.

We check condensate drain lines to ensure that they have no obstructions and that moisture can move freely. If we notice the presence of algae, we may apply algaecide to prevent algae from blocking the drains during the spring and summer seasons.
