Expert HVAC Maintenance Tips You Should Know About

Taking care of your HVAC system today allows you to bag huge savings in the long run. Taking the proper preventive maintenance steps and investing in thorough inspections can spare you from high replacement costs.


If you want to know how you can take care of your HVAC system at home, read this blog entry. We give you an overview of the tiny things you can do to ensure your HVAC system is running in the best state possible. 


#01. Thorough inspection


This may sound silly to some, but one must not underestimate the power of a good and thorough inspection. Giving your HVAC system should tell you a lot about its current state. Make sure to take note of any noticeable cosmetic damages and also any signs of dirt buildup.


This is probably the best first step to take in taking care of your HVAC system. If you spot any alarming sights of damage, consider calling a professional right away. Others might think hiring a professional to take a look at their HVAC system is an avoidable cost to incur but in reality, this can save you heaps of money.


Trying to fix any issue on your own without training and experience can cost you your HVAC system, leaving you with no choice but to replace it. Make sure to leave the repairs in the hands of the pros.


#02. Remove obstructions


This is probably the easiest preventive maintenance measure a homeowner can make. Take a look at where your HVAC system is positioned and make sure nothing is blocking it. Any obstruction can prevent the air from circulating properly and can cause a strain on the system. Sustained strain can shorten your HVAC system’s lifespan and can cause a spike in your utility bill. Do an ocular inspection and make sure nothing is blocking your HVAC system, ASAP!


#03. Get to cleaning


A well maintained and cleaned HVAC system ensures that it lasts longer and works a lot more efficiently. Make sure to remove any dander, dirt, and debris buildup in and around your HVAC system. Aside from causing strain on your system, these buildups can also cause the air quality in your home to decrease. There is also nothing good about allowing allergens such as dirt and grime to circulate in the air you breathe on a regular basis.


#04. Take note of suspicious sounds


Your HVAC system is designed to work silently. Any sort of suspicious sound coming from your system can be a telltale sign of damage. The wisest thing to do at this point is to call a professional who can perform a more intensive inspection.


There you have it, some of the most important HVAC maintenance tips every homeowner should know. Make sure to take the time to invest in proper preventive maintenance measures today to spare yourself from costlier damages in the future.

by Trevor Owens on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I returned from vacation to find my AC unit on the Fritz. After calling way too many places I connected with TwinTech. I’ve used the company in the past for my furnace so I was happy when I recognized Greg at my front door. He’s great and the service is always top notch. I’d highly recommend using twintech for honest, superior service in the Durham region. Thanks!

by Nicole Alain on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I called Twin Tech when my air conditioning stopped working. Greg came over to diagnose the issue - the same day. He was able to diagnose the issue and resolve it quite quickly. Although it was a quick fix, Greg was very thorough in explaining the issue and provided great advice. Not to mention, I felt very comfortable having Greg in my home - which I consider very important when hiring a service provider. Twin Tech will be my go-to from now on. Thank you!!

Bob, Greg & Mitch make a great team! Quick appointment times, super knowledgeable, expert troubleshooting capabilities & very customer service oriented.
I would highly recommend them for all of your HVAC needs! Great job guys!!

Twintech Heating & Cooling installed my furnace in 2022 and in fall of 2023 installed my Panasonic Heat Pump. Greg and Mitch did a great job. Helped me through the rebate process. Super happy with the Heat Pump. Only used my furnace 5 times this winter. Energy bills lower, carbon emissions lower.Thank you Twintech. I recommend highly!

Just had a new furnace installed by Twintech. I can’t express how great these guys are at what they do. From the sales to installation they were professional all the way. Very reasonable pricing and courteous during the installation and willing to answer any questions I had. Highly recommended !!!

by Colin Vernon on Twintech Heating and Cooling

They've cleaned my furnace a couple of times and mentioned that the hot water tank standards were going to change soon so I decided to change mine out.

There were a few challenges during the process but the installers handled the problems without missing a stride! I now have really hot water again!

by Heidi B on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Highly recommend Twintech Heating company, we got honest and detailed information on what was needed to replace and install a new gas furnace. Bob and Greg made us feel comfortable withe process through their thorough explanation and knowledge of the right furnace for our needs. The professionalism and courteous friendly attitude towards the customer is what we liked the most as they treated us like family. So happy with our decision and new furnace we will be looking into get our rental water heater replaced and installed by Twintech team. We feel better having their knowledge on our side and will only trust them with any further maintenance of furnace.

Customer service and knowledge is priority in this industry, and Twintech has it. I've dealt with their team for maintenance and a furnace replacement. They're accommodating and make great recommendations, and came through at a great price over the big guys in the industry. They'll be my next call when I need service or maintenance.

by Leonard Glass on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I decided that the noises and age of the existing furnace which was old and not very efficient to replace it. Gave Greg a call and Grant and Greg got to work on it. Because of supply issues with the current heating type that would be an easier install Greg convinced me to change the location of the system and it would provide me better service for heat and efficiency. I had skeptical but went ahead anyway putting trust in Greg And Grant. Greg, Grant and Mitch came through and in 2 days had completely relocated my heating and A/C system. I can honestly say Greg was right my old house has been warmer and more evenly heated as it ever was. For anyone reading this rather long winded review can take my word for it, Twin Tech can take care of your needs.
