HVAC Services

ac Repair BoiseYour heating and a/c system needs regular service just like your car does.  Cleaning, oiling replacing filters all the same as you would for your car.  None of us would think about driving our cars for years without giving them some attention to keep them running well.  The same should go for your HVAC system. Let ac repair Boise help.

Start with a good pleated filter.

A good filter is essential to help keep your system and your homes air clean.  Your filter is your first line of defense against costly break downs.  Replace your filters at least every 6 months, every 3 months is better.  Do not pay too much for the filters but too little is even worse.  A good price for filters is between $6 and $10 each.  Your local hardware store will have most sizes for you.  If your system takes an odd size we can have them made for you and deliver them to your door.

Cleaning and oiling.

Your outdoor a/c coil is what removes the heat from your home.  It is very important to keep it clean.  This can easily be done with a garden hose or in extreme cases a hose and some light detergent.  Cleaning this coil will keep your unit cooler, make your power bill lower and keep the a/c unit running longer.  Most motors made today no longer have oil ports for the bearings.  Some older motors however still have them.  It is important to keep a few drops of oil in them every year.  This makes the motor run smoother and last longer.  By doing these you can avoid an expensive ac repair Boise!

Furnace service:

Like your a/c unit your furnace also needs attention once in a while.  Cleaning of the burners , flame sensor, pressure port and cabinet can all extend the life and efficiency of your furnace.  Checking your fan capacitor, flue and carbon monoxide level are also very important.

To help prevent an ac repair Boise we recommend having your heating and a/c unit serviced about every 2 years.  As well as having you clean your coils and replace your filters at least twice a year if not more often.

Other items:

Having the Freon checked, wires tightened, capacitors checked, limits inspected and an overall operation of the systems functions are all good ideas to prevent an ac repair Boise!  Also we feel that every home with gas appliances should always have a working carbon monoxide detector in their home.  These can be purchased from us or your local hardware store for about $20 to $40 and simply plug into a wall outlet.  This alone could save the life of you and your family.
