Why is preventative maintenance necessary for air conditioning and heating equipment?
Preventative maintenance is essential to the proper functioning of air conditioning and heating equipment. If preventative maintenance is not performed regularly or if it is done haphazardly, the equipment will require extensive and costly repairs at a later date, and can be very hazardous to your health. This is not just a case of “pay now or pay later.” It is a case of “pay now or pay considerably more, later,” and lose reliability and comfort in the process. Preventative maintenance includes regular inspections each year. During these inspections, proper operation of the equipment is checked and verified. All mechanical equipment is designed to operate within certain limits. Air conditioning and heating equipment is no exception, and if not properly maintained, the equipment will exceed its design limitations with the result being equipment failure.
