HVAC Preventative Maintenance for Peak Performance & Savings

Central Indiana winters can dip below zero just weeks after humid, 90-degree summers. Without routine HVAC tune-ups, these dramatic swings punish coils, motors, and safety controls, forcing equipment to work harder and fail sooner. 

Raymoore Heating & Cooling offers tailored preventative maintenance that keeps your system efficient, dependable, and ready for anything the Midwest throws at it.

Why Regular HVAC Maintenance Matters

Even the best furnace or air conditioner loses efficiency when dust coats the coils and electrical connections loosen. Over time, these small issues compound—shortening equipment life and spiking utility bills.

Prevent minor problems from snowballing
Clogged filters, dirty burners, and low refrigerant reduce airflow and create dangerous heat buildup.

Cut energy use by up to 15 %
According to the ENERGY STAR HVAC maintenance checklist, airflow restrictions alone can slash efficiency by double-digit percentages.

Protect your investment
Annual tune-ups are the HVAC equivalent of oil changes, helping most systems exceed their expected 10- to 15-year service life.

Enjoy safer, quieter comfort
Safety inspections catch cracked heat exchangers or high carbon-monoxide levels before they pose a risk.

What’s Included in a Performance Tune-Up

Our certified technicians follow a comprehensive multi-point checklist designed for Indiana’s climate and major equipment brands.

Furnace Service

After a quick safety briefing, we:

  • Test for carbon-monoxide leaks
  • Clean burners and ignition assembly
  • Adjust gas pressure for ideal combustion
  • Tighten electrical connections and lube motors
  • Verify flue draft and inspect vent piping

Air-Conditioner Service

To keep summer bills low, we:

  • Wash the condenser coil for unrestricted airflow
  • Inspect and clean the indoor evaporator coil
  • Flush the condensate drain and test the pump
  • Check refrigerant charge and search for leaks
  • Measure supply- and return-air temperatures

Heat-Pump & Air-Handler Service

Because heat pumps run year-round, we:

  • Clean both coils and defrost controls
  • Inspect auxiliary heat strips
  • Balance refrigerant for heating and cooling modes
  • Tighten all electrical terminals
  • Verify blower speed and amperage draw

Key Benefits of Choosing Raymoore

Routine tune-ups are more than a box-checking exercise; they translate into tangible advantages that homeowners feel and see on utility statements.

Avoid surprise breakdowns
Early detection of worn parts and safety issues prevents system failures during extreme weather.

Lower monthly bills
Clean coils and balanced refrigerant reduce runtime, trimming seasonal energy costs by up to hundreds of dollars, according to the U.S. Department of Energy’s HVAC efficiency guide.

Maintain manufacturer warranties
Most leading brands require documented maintenance to keep parts coverage intact.

Priority scheduling
Service Agreement members move to the top of our list during peak seasons, sidestepping the rush.

Boost indoor air quality
Fresh filters, sanitized drain pans, and calibrated airflow dilute allergens and excess humidity.

 

How Often Should You Schedule Maintenance?

Manufacturers and industry groups agree that twice-yearly visits deliver the best balance of performance and cost control.

Spring (March–May)
Prepare the air conditioner or heat pump before the cooling season.

Fall (September–November)
Calibrate the furnace or heat pump’s heating mode ahead of winter.
