What’s Included in a Heating Maintenance Visit
Every heating system needs regular care—but the steps involved can vary depending on the type of equipment in your home. At Alliance HVAC, our technicians follow detailed maintenance checklists tailored to the system we’re working on.
Core Steps for All Systems:
1. Clean key components – Burners, coils, or heat exchangers are cleaned to ensure efficient heat transfer and safe operation.
2. Inspect electrical connections and safety controls – We check for loose wires, test safeties, and confirm proper voltage to critical components.
3. Test thermostat accuracy and system response – Your thermostat is calibrated and tested to ensure it correctly communicates with the system.
4. Verify airflow and check filters – We measure airflow through the system and inspect filters or ductwork that may restrict performance.
5. Lubricate moving parts (if applicable) – Motors, bearings, and fans are lubricated to reduce wear and noise.
6. Check for visible wear, leaks, or other issues – We look for signs of deterioration, corrosion, or anything that could lead to failure during peak use.
How Maintenance differs by system type:
Furnaces: Burner cleaning, flame sensor testing, gas pressure checks, and verifying safe startup and shutdown.
Heat Pumps: Checking refrigerant levels, defrost cycle function, reversing valve operation, and heating/cooling mode switching.
Ductless Mini-Splits: Cleaning indoor heads, testing airflow in each zone, clearing condensate lines, and inspecting the outdoor unit.
Air Handlers: Blower and coil cleaning, filter inspection, motor performance checks, and airflow or static pressure testing.
By adjusting the maintenance process to your system, we help ensure safe operation, better performance, and fewer unexpected breakdowns—especially during peak heating season.
