What happens on the fall visit
The technician inspects and cleans the burners, tests the igniter and flame sensor, checks the inducer and blower motors, measures gas pressure and temperature rise, inspects the heat exchanger with a camera, runs a combustion analysis, checks the venting and condensate drain, tests the safeties, and replaces the filter if you have supplied one. You get a written report with photos and the actual readings, not a checklist of boxes. If a part is weakening, we tell you and let you decide whether to replace it now or wait.
For boiler-heated homes, the fall visit covers the boiler: burner cleaning, combustion test, pressure and expansion tank check, circulator and zone valve operation, and bleeding of radiators that need it.
What happens on the spring visit
The air conditioner or heat pump gets its outdoor coil washed, the capacitor and contactor tested, the fan motor checked, refrigerant pressures and superheat measured, the indoor coil and condensate drain inspected, and the thermostat and airflow verified. Capacitors that are reading low get flagged before the first heat wave takes them out.
Why priority scheduling matters here
During a severe cold snap or a multi-day heat advisory, every heating and cooling company in the metro is swamped at the same moment. We serve maintenance members first on those days. That is the single most valuable thing in the plan, and it is the reason many of our members signed up after waiting too long for service somewhere else.
Plans for every system
We offer plans for furnace and air conditioner pairs, dual-fuel heat pump systems, boilers, and ductless systems, with pricing that scales with the number of pieces of equipment. Rental property owners and homeowners with multiple systems get a per-unit rate. Ask your technician or call the office and we will set it up on the spot.
