How often should I have my HVAC system serviced?

Most HVAC systems should be serviced twice a year — once in the spring (for cooling) and once in the fall (for heating). Regular maintenance helps prevent breakdowns, improves efficiency, and extends the system’s lifespan. A technician will typically inspect the components, clean coils, check refrigerant pressure, lubricate moving parts, and test safety controls. Skipping maintenance can lead to higher energy bills and premature system failure.
