HVAC Preventative Maintenance in Berks County, PA

Increase Efficiency & Lower Costs With Semi-Annual Heating & AC Tune-Ups

Many residents living in Pennsylvania are unaware that the vast majority of air conditioning and ventilation system failures are not caused by an inherently faulty part of the machine. Rather, 9 out of 10 times such malfunctions are created by the accumulated dirt and dust that gathers due to an absence of routine maintenance.

Our cars, our computer systems, and even our teeth need regular check-ups, so you can be sure that your HVAC systems need periodic tune-ups as well. Advanced Comfort Specialists can offer you superb HVAC preventative maintenance, so that your systems are always running in tip-top condition.

When you sign up for one of our Advanced Protection Plans, our skilled technicians will perform a comprehensive examination of every part of your operations for heating, air conditioning, and ventilation. We will not only clean and lubricate all parts but re-calibrate the system entirely.

Benefits of Regular HVAC Maintenance

If you are a home or a business owner in Pennsylvania, you may be questioning whether HVAC maintenance is really necessary. There are so many advantages which come from frequently having your heating or air conditioning system maintained and serviced.

The benefits of regular HVAC maintenance include

• Lower utility bills: One of the most important reasons for getting regular HVAC maintenance is saving your hard-earned income. If your heating and air conditioning unit is operating at its highest efficiency, you will not need to spend so much on electricity or warming and cooling your house.
• Clean, pure, breathable air: Your HVAC system not only keeps your house cool or warm during the different seasons, but it also is crucial in maintaining a good level of air quality. Without maintenance, your system will actually breed more bacteria, mold, allergens, and viruses, all of which can endanger your health and that of other occupants.
• Longer system lifespan: If you want to make sure that your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning unit continues to work for a long time, the only option is getting regular maintenance. Your unit can even last longer than 10 years, but this extended lifespan only comes with proper check-ups.
• Fewer breakdowns and emergency repairs: During our comprehensive inspections, our experienced technicians are able to catch minor issues before they become large, expensive ones. This will result in a healthier system overall.
• Priority service: There’s nothing worse than waiting around all day for a technician to arrive. When you are enrolled in one of our Advanced Protection Plans, you’ll automatically be moved to the front of the line to receive service.
• Waived trip/diagnostic fees: At Advanced Comfort Specialists, we’re committed to helping our customers save as much money as possible. On top of our already affordable prices, those enrolled in our Advanced Protection Plans will enjoy increased savings with waived trip and diagnostic fees.

Ensuring the Warranty of Your HVAC Parts

One important reason you should consider regular maintenance is to keep an emergency "safety net" should any problem occur with your unit. If you receive routine preventative maintenance, the company that sold you or manufactured your system will not be able to blame you for malfunctioning parts due to negligence.
