Maintenance
One of the most important things you can do for an air conditioning system or a heating system
is to keep it clean. Cleaning pays for itself - equipment is cheaper to
operate, the air is cooler/hotter, and the equipment lasts longer.
Equipment manufacturers mandate that equipment be professionally serviced at
least once a year to validate the warranty. Based on how hard your air conditioning
or heating system works, Hood Canal Heating & Cooling Inc recommends
twice a year Preventive Maintenance Agreements.

"I Change My Filter Regularly. Why Would I Need You To Come Service My System?"
It is a common misconception that all heating and cooling service technicians do during an annual cleaning of your system is change the filter(s). While it is one of the items on our extensive checklist, it is far from the only thing the technicians do.
Basic Maintenance Includes:

Cooling Specific Maintenance (when applicable) Includes:
Tightening screw lug terminals in the condensing unit Inspection of the contractor for pits and burns Checking and recording amp draws Inspection of the fan blades for cracks or defects Inspection of the indoor coil, if accessible Inspection of any condensate drain pans/drains to ensure proper operation Checking and recording operating pressures and temperatures Inspection and cleaning of the outdoor unit Checking refrigerant levels (when outside temperature is >60º) Inspection of the cooling system for unusual vibration or loose parts Inspection and flushing of the condensate lines Checking the evaporator for adequate air flow Lubrication of the furnace/boiler blower or air handler Checking the overall operation of the system
Heating Maintenance Includes:
Inspection of gas lines and connections at furnace/boiler for leaks Checking high limit control and adjusting as needed Inspection of the burner ignition system and assembly Inspection of the gas burners Checking and adjusting the manifold gas pressure Checking temperature rise across heat exchanger for overheating Inspection of the heat exchanger for sooting, corrosion, or restriction of gas flow Inspection of the wiring assembly for loose connections Inspection of flue and venting for obstructions and leaks Inspection of the entire furnace/boiler for loose parts or unusual vibrations Testing and adjusting the unit for peak operation efficiency Checking defrost cycle and reversing valve operation (heat pumps only) Tightening screw lug terminals in condensing units (heat pumps only) Checking refrigerant levels (heat pumps only) Checking emergency heat systems for proper operation (heat pumps only)
