Keep Your Home Comfort Systems Running at Peak Performance
If your home comfort system needs service, maintenance, or replaced give us a call at (215) 256-4221 or schedule an appointment online.
HVAC Systems
- Make sure that all leaf debris and snow are kept clear of your outdoor heat pump unit. This will enable the unit to run more efficiently and allow a technician to access it for service or preventive maintenance.
- Make sure the areas around all furnaces and air handlers are clear and easily accessible, so your system runs more efficiently and it’s accessible for service.
- Preventive maintenance for your HVAC system is also a good idea to prevent problems from occurring when you’re not there. A smart thermostat or wi-fi thermostat can also help you manage the temperature inside your home while you’re away, which can save you money on energy costs.
Plumbing Systems
- Keep all gutters clear to prevent unwanted leaks along the gutter line. This also helps prevent ice buildup that can cause damage to your roof and to your outdoor unit when the ice breaks free.
- Schedule a plumbing inspection/preventive maintenance to make sure sump pumps and well-tank equipment is working properly. This equipment should also be winterized for colder weather, so it’s ready for snow/water removal.
- If you have a second home that is not occupied year-round or you are away from home for the winter, consider having the plumbing of your vacant home winterized to protect your pipes from freezing while the plumbing is not in use.
Fuel Systems
- Make sure your fuel oil provider uses a fuel additive to prevent your oil from gelling in colder temperatures. Gelling can cause a waxy substance to build up on filters and in fuel lines, reducing flow rates and eventually causing furnace shutdown. IT Landes Home Service Team uses a fuel additive, so our fuel oil customers do not need to be concerned about this condition.
