The dangers of skipping maintenance for your heat pump this spring in Odessa, TX, far outweigh the money saved. To understand the importance of the service, consider the following list of problems you might experience if you neglect to schedule maintenance.
Decreased Reliability
Without inspection, we cannot find problems inside your heat pump that could cause it to malfunction or stop working. We also cannot keep the different components in good condition. These problems can lead to breakdowns and malfunctions at some point this summer, making your system less reliable.
Decreased Efficiency
Regular maintenance service improves your heat pump’s energy efficiency by keeping it clean and in optimal condition. Without maintenance, your system may require more energy to provide the same level of comfort you’ve always enjoyed. In return, additional energy consumption causes your utility costs to soar when operating the heat pump.
Shortened Life
Your heat pump may fail prematurely without annual checks. This could happen due to extreme wear and tear on internal components and overall stress on the system. Skipping maintenance may mean you’ll be replacing your heat pump sooner rather than later and spend more money in the long run.
Voided Warranty
If your heat pump came with a manufacturer’s warranty when you purchased it, it likely requires regular professional maintenance to stay valid. Skipping maintenance may void the warranty and leave you with repair and replacement costs.
Don’t waste time and money dealing with the headaches that neglecting heat pump maintenance brings. Stay ready for summer with a reliable, efficient and long-lasting heat pump by scheduling maintenance services this spring. Call the expert service technicians at WTR (West Texas Refrigeration) to make sure your HVAC system is ready for the Odessa summer heat.
