Why Maintenance Agreements Make Sense

If you want to keep your HVAC system running smoothly for a long time to come, it’s essential to perform regular maintenance. Unfortunately, it’s not always easy to remember from one year to the next. And necessary repairs can be costly and cumbersome. Fortunately, there’s an easier way to keep your system well cared for: an HVAC maintenance agreement.

A maintenance agreement is a service contract with your HVAC contractor, wherein you pay a monthly fee for HVAC service when you need it. This includes your annual tuneup, as well as some emergency repairs, priority treatment when it comes to house calls, and more. It’s a great investment for anyone who wants to keep their HVAC system in good repair. Here are three benefits of a maintenance agreement.

• Annual maintenance – It’s essential to have your A/C checked every spring before cooling season, and your furnace checked in the fall before heating season. A technician will provide basic service, make basic repairs, replace worn out parts before they give out, etc. Without it, your system will break down more often and wear out more quickly. But how many people remember to have it done every year? Fortunately, your service agreement includes annual tuneups, which they’ll call you to schedule so you don’t forget.
• Priority – It’s the middle of winter, and your furnace breaks down. You call for a repair. How long will it take a technician to show up? It could take days—unless you have a service agreement. In that case, you’ll be bumped to the top of their list, and can have someone over to fix your system in hours, rather than days.
• Convenience – When your HVAC system needs service, you have to search for a reputable technician—often through trial and error, wondering if they’ll be able to do the job right, and how much it will cost. But with a maintenance agreement, you always have an HVAC technician you can trust right at your fingertips.
