Smart Preventative Maintenance Tips

• Replace air filters every 1-3 months
• Keep outdoor units clear of debris and vegetation
• Schedule bi-annual professional inspections
• Monitor unusual sounds or odors from your system
• Clean air vents and registers regularly

Energy Efficiency Matters

Today’s modern HVAC systems offer incredible efficiency ratings, but even the best systems need proper care. Simple steps like sealing ductwork and maintaining proper insulation can dramatically impact your system’s performance and your utility bills.

When to Call the Professionals

While some maintenance tasks are DIY-friendly, certain situations require expert attention:

• Unusual noises or vibrations
• Inconsistent heating or cooling
• Sharp increases in utility bills
• Poor air flow from vents
• System short cycling

Remember that preventative maintenance is always more cost-effective than emergency repairs. Regular service appointments help ensure your system operates at peak efficiency throughout Nebraska’s challenging weather conditions.
