Indoor Air Quality Services in Lynchburg, VA

Reasons For Maintenance:

• A dirty evaporator cooling coil, outdoor condenser coil, or blower fan wheel could increase electrical usage by 50% or more.
• Dirt builds up on the blower inside the air handler, and as it gathers on the fan blades and motor, friction is created. This leads to efficiency reduction, as well as wear and tear on the component and a reduction in airflow.
• A refrigerant undercharge of only 10% can increase operating costs by almost 20%. 
• Industry studies suggest that a significant number of home comfort system failures can be attributed to a lack of annual maintenance. This is true for all plumbing and HVAC systems whether they be electric, heat pumps, drain lines, water heaters, or fossil fuel furnaces.
• Up to 80% of all air conditioning compressor failures could be eliminated if the problem that led to failure had been corrected in a timely manner.
• Lack of cleaning is a primary cause of outages in all HVAC systems, including heat pumps and furnaces.
• Valve tagging your home can save you money and may help stop plumbing disasters simply because you know which valve to turn off.
• A maintenance inspection will also focus on your ducts. Ducts that allow conditioned air to leak out are a key contributor to poor airflow, causing heated and cooled air to escape the ducts before it reaches your living spaces.
