By performing seasonal maintenance, Sacramento homeowners can avoid HVAC emergency repairs and enjoy a more comfortable home this winter.

Sacramento, California – Dec. 11, 2024 – Fox Family Heating and Air Conditioning, a top provider of heating and air conditioning (HVAC) services, announces top maintenance tips for Sacramento homeowners this holiday season. Timely maintenance prevents HVAC emergency repairs, improves home comfort, and boosts energy efficiency.

“There are many easy maintenance tasks homeowners can do to prevent repairs and high energy bills. Changing air filters, cleaning vents, and scheduling tune-ups can help them avoid emergency HVAC services and unexpected breakdowns this holiday season,” said Fox Family Heating and Air Conditioning’s senior technician.

The average home in the United States devotes almost half of its energy bill to heating and cooling expenses in a given year. When homeowners skip biannual tuneups and routine maintenance tasks, it leads to higher energy expenses. A simple maintenance task, like replacing a clogged air filter, can increase an air conditioner’s energy efficiency by 5% to 15%. Because 35% of heat is lost through ductwork, finding and sealing duct leaks plays an integral role in lowering HVAC costs.

American households spend $10 billion in an average year on HVAC repairs and maintenance. However, many HVAC emergency breakdowns and repairs can be prevented by fixing maintenance issues. By taking advantage of the HVAC maintenance Sacramento offers, homeowners can quickly get common HVAC problems diagnosed and repaired before the colder days of winter set in.

“Many of the HVAC issues we see could have been caught early and fixed through preventative maintenance. Preventative maintenance isn’t just more convenient than emergency repairs. It’s also much more affordable for Sacramento homeowners,” Fox Family Heating and Air Conditioning’s senior technician added.

By getting the preventative maintenance and HVAC repair Sacramento offers as early as possible, residents can save money on energy costs and avoid the hassle of unexpected HVAC failures. To avoid emergency HVAC services and high-cost repairs, Fox Family Heating and Air Conditioning recommends a few key maintenance tasks for Sacramento homeowners.

• Tune-Ups: Maintenance checks should be scheduled twice per year to prevent HVAC failures.
• Winterization: Air conditioner winterization ensures the unit is protected from wintertime temperatures and precipitation. Homeowners should clean the components, lubricate moving parts, and cover the unit.
• Proactive Repairs: Early warning signs indicate potential problems with heat pumps and furnaces. By scheduling timely repairs, homeowners can stop the issue from escalating into higher repair costs and unexpected breakdowns.
• Maintenance Plans: For a longer lasting unit, more flexible scheduling, and better energy efficiency, homeowners should invest in a maintenance plan for their heat pump or furnace.

With the help of a certified HVAC technician, residents can avoid breakdowns this holiday season. Sacramento HVAC services can prevent high energy bills and major repairs.

“We advise homeowners to prepare their HVAC system for winter by cleaning condensate drain lines, sealing duct leaks, and replacing air filters. To avoid needing HVAC emergency repairs, Sacramento residents should schedule a maintenance inspection. On average, this type of maintenance takes just one to two hours.” the senior technician added.
