Preventive Maintenance Benefits
At Gentry Service Group, we dispatch nationally certified technicians to your home or office on a semiannual basis to conduct a variety of important tests, adjustments, inspections, and calibrations. Heating and cooling maintenance agreements provide many benefits when the work is performed by a skilled and knowledgeable HVAC contractor.
- Lower Utility Costs: Dirt, grime, and duct restrictions reduce efficiency and increase operating costs. Our technicians check the unit to identify performance-related issues and calibrate the system to the manufacturer’s original specifications. We also look for other deficits that increase utility costs such as duct leaks, perimeter penetrations, and low insulation levels.
- Extended Equipment Life: Properly maintained furnaces and air conditioners will experience less wear and tear when compared with neglected units. Without regular cleaning, coils, motors, and other internal components become covered with layers of sticky grime and the equipment must run longer to satisfy the indoor load requirements. Regular maintenance will reduce the wear on vital parts, which can help extend the life of your equipment.
- Fewer Repairs: As part of the maintenance service, our technicians are trained to identify minor problems before they can affect the performance of your equipment. Our maintenance customers always receive priority service.
- Increased Comfort and Improved Capacity: Even minor problems in HVAC system operation can significantly impact indoor comfort.
