What are HVAC service plans?
HVAC service contracts are agreements between you and an HVAC service provider where you pay a set annual fee to guarantee the company's ongoing services for your home's HVAC system.
What’s included in an HVAC service plan?
Basic HVAC service plan contracts typically include a checkup and tune-up for your system at the start of the heating and cooling seasons. You can also find contracts which include parts and service for problems found during those checkups and some will even include emergency service. The more services the contract includes, the higher the cost.
Benefits of regular HVAC system maintenance with a qualified technician:
- Improved energy efficiency: a cleaner, unobstructed system means no unexpected maintenance problems
- Cost savings: your system will work better, therefore your utility bills will likely decrease
- Peace of mind: catch problems before they become an emergency
