What Happens During a Fall Maintenance Check

Nicolet Heating & Cooling • Sep 15, 2022

A maintenance check done in the fall makes sure your HVAC system can bear up under the admittedly brutal Green Bay winters. You won’t have to leave your home in order to have an HVAC technician from Nicolet Heating & Cooling do a thorough job. When they arrive, some of the maintenance tasks they’ll complete include the following:

  • Changing the filters
  • Lubricating moving parts
  • Calibrating the thermostat
  • Cleaning the interior components
  • Checking for gas leaks or electrical shorts

Thorough Fall HVAC Maintenance

While all HVAC maintenance is important, one vital component is to assure there is no carbon monoxide leaking into the air of your home. A faulty furnace can produce this toxic substance, and it can be quite dangerous. Our HVAC professional will check for this and complete other safety inspections.

They’ll also recommend a schedule for when you can change the filters yourself. This schedule depends on whether or not you have pets or if someone in the household has allergies.

The HVAC professional will clean the burners and flame sensor and make sure the wiring and connections are sound. Dirty burners stress the system and shorten its working life. When checking for gas leaks, the technician will also make sure the gas pressure is where it should be. In addition, they’ll make sure that the ignition and flame perform as they should. Besides cleaning the bearings and motors, they’ll check and clean the blowers. They’ll also make sure that the vents are free of obstructions. Other maintenance tasks include checking and testing the controls for proper functioning and making sure that unit panels are in place and don’t rattle when the system is working. Loose panels are not only noisy, but they can make the unit shut down altogether and even allow carbon monoxide to escape.
