Your HVAC system is one of your home’s most critical components. From keeping you cool in the summer and warm in the winter to maintain good indoor air quality, your HVAC system is responsible for a lot. The last thing anyone wants is for their HVAC system to fail. While no system will last forever, there are several things you can do to extend the life of your HVAC system.

Tips On How To Extend The Life Of Your HVAC System

Getting the most out of your home’s HVAC system is easier than you may think. Just follow these tips:

Replace Air Filters Regularly

The air filter in your furnace is a crucial component that is often overlooked. Filters keep dust and pollutants from entering the air in your home. In time, though, they become clogged. In addition to allowing more contaminants to enter your home, clogged filters cause your HVAC system to work harder, potentially reducing its lifespan. Replace your furnace’s air filter every 3 to 6 months to keep your HVAC system running properly.

Open And Clean Vents

When the vents in your home are not left open, there is a greater chance for moisture to accumulate. Excess moisture causes the growth of mildew and mold, which can be harmful to your respiratory system. Also, the vents and grills in your home need to be cleaned regularly. When they are dirty, airflow is restricted, forcing your HVAC system to work harder. In addition to wasting a lot of energy, this extra work puts additional strain on the system.

Call An HVAC Technician

One of the easiest and most beneficial things you can do when it comes to extending the life of your HVAC system is calling an HVAC technician. When you have a professional technician come to your home once a year to inspect and tune up your HVAC system, you can greatly extend its lifespan. In addition, having someone come in for annual maintenance gives them a chance to identify potential problems and correct them before your HVAC system fails.
