What do service agreements entail?

Service agreements are affordable HVAC maintenance plans that keep heating and cooling equipment functioning at maximum efficiency while preventing breakdowns. The convenience alone is worth the cost, but many homeowners don't understand their benefits.

Here's the short-list of features Gastonia-area homeowners get when they enroll with GSM Services service agreements:

• Two service visits a year
• Thermostat and starting cycle check
• Check and tighten electronics
• Check and lubricate moving components
• Check and adjust safety controls
• Check and clear drainage lines and drain pans
• Check and clean coils
• Check and adjust refrigerant levels
• Check, clean, and modify blower
• Check all natural gas connections and exhaust ports

Some of these issues are system-specific. For instance, only air conditioners and heat pumps have evaporator coils, so this isn't a feature of cool-weather maintenance visits. Other maintenance issues, like filter changes, require homeowner participation. A technician can advise you of the best filters and changing schedule for your equipment and show you the appropriate way to do the work.

Depending upon the service agreement you invest in, you'll also get extra benefits, like:

• Free filters
• Discounts
• Credit toward a new installation

Quality HVAC shops have access to NATE-certified technicians, and they have the right tools for the job. Someone who handles their own system maintenance may not be able to adequately check for electrical damage, for instance, or know about new filters which will clear more from the air while reducing airflow restriction. Specialty knowledge and hands-on experience really determine the worth of your service agreement.

Take care of your HVAC equipment, prevent bad weather breakdowns, lower your monthly bills, and help your heating and cooling units last as long as possible. Invest in one of the service agreements offered by GSM Services.
