Winter HVAC Maintenance Tips: Keeping Your Home Warm and Cozy

As the winter chill sets in, keeping your home warm and comfortable becomes a top priority. At Shakley Mechanical, we understand how crucial it is for residents in Northeast Ohio to maintain efficient HVAC systems. Whether you are a homeowner or a business, ensuring your heating system is in peak condition is essential for facing the cold months ahead. Here are some tips to help you get your HVACs ready for winter.

The Importance of Regular HVAC Maintenance

For over 25 years, Shakley Mechanical has served as a trusted HVAC contractor in North Central Ohio, providing top-notch heating and cooling services. Proper maintenance of your HVAC system not only keeps your home cozy but also helps in prolonging the equipment’s lifespan and improving energy efficiency.

Tips for Preparing Your HVAC System for Winter

  1. Schedule a Professional Inspection: Before the cold becomes severe, it’s wise to have your HVAC system inspected by a reputable company HVAC contractor like Shakley Mechanical. Regular check-ups by experienced HVAC companies ensure that any potential issues are caught early.
  2. Replace or Clean Filters: Clogged or dirty filters can hinder airflow, making your heating system work harder than necessary. Both residential and commercial HVAC companies recommend changing filters every 1-3 months, especially during peak seasons.
  3. Check Thermostat Settings: Make sure your thermostat is functioning correctly and set to your desired comfort level. If you’re unsure about optimal settings, an expert heating and cooling contractor can offer advice tailored to your system.
  4. Inspect and Clean Ductwork: Over time, dust and debris accumulate in ductwork, reducing system efficiency. You might consider enlisting commercial HVAC companies for thorough duct cleaning, ensuring clean air throughout your home or commercial space.
  5. Seal and Insulate: Check for any drafts around windows, doors, and other openings. Sealing and insulating these areas will not only keep the warmth in but also reduce the workload on your heating system.
  6. Emergency Services: In case of unexpected heating issues, having a reliable HVAC contractor like Shakley Mechanical on your speed dial ensures you won’t be left in the cold. Their commitment to rapid response and reliable service is unmatched.
