With a Preventive Maintenance Agreement (PMA), offered for an annual fee from your local HVAC professional, a specialist will come to your home to assess and examine your HVAC system before any concerns turn into major problems. Among other things, the specialist will check system tasks and safety controls; inspect electrical components and connections; ensure proper airflow and change filthy air filters; and examine pumps, lubricate and examine flow rates, where appropriate.
Vitt Heating and Air Conditioning Co Inc Recommends Twice-A-Year Visits
There are different PMAs available, however technicians typically visit a home two times a year (once before the cooking season and once before the heating season) to guarantee everything is functioning appropriately. Another all-inclusive opportunity is a lifetime PMA that includes the cost of all maintenance, repairs, components, emergency service and equipment replacement.
It is imperative to remember that warranties are different than PMAs. A warranty will only last for a limited amount of time and, often, only apply to specific parts of the unit. If a part is not working and it’s still under warranty, the manufacturer will provide a free replacement part. However, since warranties do not cover labor, you will still be responsible for the installation costs.
