We called Mike because of a leak with our hot water pipes. He responded immediately, told us what to do in the interim, and was at our place the same day. The work was completed quickly, and at a good price. Thank you Mike!
Homeowners often ask how often they should schedule air conditioning maintenance in Chemainus, and the answer is every year. The best time to schedule is in spring before needing to run the air. This way, our HVAC technician is the first person to start your system each season. Of course, if summer is already underway, we can still come out and complete all needed services.
During an AC tune-up, our technician will perform a multipoint inspection and clean the equipment. We’ll normally start with the outdoor condenser unit. It’s important to check the disconnect switch and clear the outdoor unit of leaves and other debris. Our technician will also test refrigerant pressure, lubricate the compressor fan, and clean the condenser coils.
Inside, it’s necessary to check the air handler and lubricate the moving parts of the blower. Our technician will also clean the evaporator coil. Cleaning the condenser and evaporator coils are the most important steps when it comes to energy efficiency. Our technician will test the wet switch too. It’s there to prevent overflowing moisture.
The final phase of AC maintenance involves replacing the HVAC filter and cleaning and testing the thermostat. If everything checks out up until that point, we’ll run the AC and let it cycle. Finally, we’ll use a manometer to ensure the static air pressure of the system is in the optimal range. We’ll then give you a status report and documentation and answer any questions that you may have.
