Q
How often should I maintain my furnace, air conditioner or heat pump?

Factory recommends yearly maintenance on equipment (this may need to be documented for warranty purposes). Yearly maintenance will increase the life of your system as well as help it reach its most efficient operating capabilities. This will also ensure less failure during the peak seasons of operation.
Q
How often should my filter by cleaned?
A
Every home is different, presence of children, animals and other outside environmental factors will determine the amount of particles collected. You should check your filters every three months, if you see a heavy build up of particles on the filters, you may consider cleaning more often. A clean filter will increase the efficiency and performance of your heating and cooling system. Maintaining a clean filter will also extend the life of your equipment.
Q
Does it matter if I tune up my furnace in the summer vs. the winter season?
A
The time of year doesn’t have an effect on the overall performance of the unit. However, you will find scheduling during the peak seasons will often be more difficult. Maintaining a planned maintenance program for servicing your equipment in the off season is ideal. B & C offers a maintenance plan which allows you to save money and have priority with scheduling when emergence break downs occur.
