A little care now keeps you warm through the winter!
Schedule Your Annual Furnace Maintenance

Are Heating Tune-Ups Really That Important?

Here in San Antonio, we spend most of the year hiding from the heat. With the air conditioner positioned as our best friend for so many months, it can seem crazy to think about our heaters as soon as that first cool breeze blows in. But that’s the perfect time for heating system maintenance!

Air & Drain Works is San Antonio’s most reliable HVAC company, supporting local homeowners in their mission to maintain comfort throughout the year. We know that a heating tune-up easily falls off your to-do list, but this year, don’t let it! Schedule heater maintenance with us and reap the many benefits when a classic Texas freeze has others shivering in their homes.

What Are The Benefits Of Annual Furnace Maintenance?

Whether you rely on a furnace, heat pump or other heating system to keep you cozy during the chillier months of the year, you deserve comfort without the hassle. Since San Antonio is usually fighting triple digits, your heating system can sit unused for many months. Plus, when the time finally comes to turn it on, it may be a little worse for wear from the previous year’s use.

Heating maintenance services are the best way to ensure your heating system is up to the task through the very depth of winter (whether that’s a freeze or a balmy 70 degrees). Benefits of scheduling annual maintenance include:

  • Improved efficiency — Keeps your system running smoothly, reducing energy bills
  • Fewer heater repairs — Addresses minor issues before they become costly problems
  • Enhanced safety — Detects potential hazards like gas leaks or carbon monoxide risks
  • Consistent comfort — Maintains reliable performance for a warm, cozy home

Plus, maintenance saves you money! Yes, it increases efficiency, meaning you spend less money to run the heater for the same amount of time. But regular upkeep also keeps your system running faithfully for more years. That means a full heater replacement can be delayed for a few more years — that’s worth one hour of your time letting our team refresh your unit.

What’s Included In Heating System Maintenance?

To ensure your heater is ready to run reliably throughout the season, our expert team checks out your entire system, catching repairs early and adjusting the unit to keep you comfortable. You can expect our technicians to:

  • Inspect critical components — The techs will check the heat exchanger, burners, blower motor and other parts for damage or wear that could affect performance or safety.
  • Replace or clean air filters —They’ll clean or replace clogged filters to improve airflow and ensure your heater runs efficiently.
  • Test and adjust the thermostat — The technicians will calibrate your thermostat for accurate temperature control and energy savings.
  • Check electrical connections — They’ll tighten loose connections and inspect wiring to prevent hazards and ensure reliable operation.
  • Ensure safety features are working — The team will test safety devices like carbon monoxide detectors and automatic shut-offs to keep your home safe.

With years of experience, our team is highly qualified to inspect and maintain your heating unit. You can count on us to be transparent about any issues we find and only give recommendations for repairs that you truly need.

What Time Of Year Should I Schedule HVAC Maintenance?

The golden rule remains: maintenance at ANY time of the year is better than none at all. However, heater maintenance is most effective when it’s completed before the high demand of winter. In San Antonio, it might feel painful to have your heater inspected when it’s still in the 70s or 80s, but you’ll be glad you did when a freeze covers our city in ice!
