You’ve been told to get twice-yearly inspections and change the filter regularly, but there’s a better way to keep your home’s HVAC system in shape. A maintenance plan — basically, a contract that provides regularly scheduled inspections and maintenance appointments, as well as priority emergency help — offers benefits that you wouldn’t get by setting up a basic appointment now and then. Four benefits in particular stand out.

1) You Know the System Works

A maintenance plan will include those semi-annual inspections in spring and fall, ensuring that your system is ready for the upcoming season. You won’t have to worry about forgetting to schedule the inspections in time to avoid the seasonal rush.

2) Finding the Little Things

HVAC problems don’t always make themselves evident immediately. A maintenance plan that ensures someone looks at your system frequently helps you spot small issues that can be fixed right away, preventing larger problems from forming later on.

3) Money-Saving Maintenance

Maintenance plans can function almost like a bulk-buy, only of maintenance instead of groceries. With a plan in place, you could get discounted services for the life of the plan.

4) Running Records and Familiarity

As the maintenance plan continues, you’ll find that the repair techs who work on the system become more familiar with it. Should something go wrong, there’s a better chance of diagnosing the problem early because the techs will have a running record of what’s already been done maintenance-wise and what parts might be reaching the ends of their life spans.
