Answers to your burning questions about maintenance agreements.
Maintenance agreements are an excellent way to keep your system working right while helping you save money in the long run. Take a look at what regular maintenance means:
What Is a Maintenance Agreement?
A maintenance agreement for your heating and cooling system is a way for your HVAC company to keep your system in working order. It’s a plan between you and them that ensures your equipment gets inspected, cleaned, and maintained twice a year, once in the spring before cooling season, and once in the fall before you turn on the heat during the colder months. Without this plan in place, most people don’t take the time to take care of their heating and air conditioning units.
