HVAC Maintenance & Tune-Ups — Salt Lake, Utah & Davis County

Annual tune-ups for furnaces and air conditioners — documented, thorough, and designed to catch problems before they become emergencies.

What it is

An annual tune-up — not a repair

HVAC maintenance is a scheduled, documented inspection of your heating or cooling system performed by a licensed technician — typically once a year for each system. We inspect, clean, test, and adjust the components that determine how efficiently and safely the system runs. You leave with a written record of its condition and an honest assessment of anything that needs attention.

Think of it as a yearly physical for your HVAC. You don't wait until you're sick to see a doctor — and you shouldn't wait until the AC dies in July to call us.

Utah's temperature swings — subzero winters and 100°+ summers — put more cumulative stress on HVAC equipment than most climates. Annual maintenance isn't optional here.

Why It Matters

What maintenance actually does for you

Lower energy bills

A clean, properly tuned system runs at the efficiency it was designed for. A neglected one works harder and costs you more every month.

Fewer breakdowns

Most major failures start as small issues — a weak capacitor, a dirty flame sensor, a loose connection. Catching them now is cheaper than an emergency call later.

Longer equipment life

A well-maintained system commonly lasts 15–20 years. Skipped maintenance is the most common reason equipment fails early.

Safety checks for your family

Every furnace visit includes a gas-leak test, a carbon-monoxide test at the nearest register, and a heat-exchanger inspection.

Protects your warranty

Most manufacturers require documented annual maintenance to keep the equipment warranty valid. We give you the paperwork to prove it.

What We Check

Our official maintenance checklists

Every visit follows a written checklist — the same one our technicians carry into the field. Download either one below and see exactly what we inspect before we ever arrive.

Air Conditioner

A/C Tune-Up Checklist

26-point inspection

Covers blower motor amperage, refrigerant pressure, condenser coil cleaning, capacitor and contactor testing, Freon leak detection, and temperature differential — among other items.

Furnace

Furnace Tune-Up Checklist

14-point inspection

Includes burner cleaning, heat exchanger inspection, flame sensor service, full electrical and safety checks, a gas-leak test, and carbon-monoxide testing at the closest register.

Timing

When to schedule each system

Service each system once a year, before the season you need it most. If it's been more than a year since the last tune-up, schedule now — don't wait for the next season.

Air Conditioner

Spring — March through May

We catch refrigerant issues, weak capacitors, and dirty coils before the first 90°+ day in July.

Furnace

Fall — September through October

We test combustion, safety controls, and carbon-monoxide levels before the first hard freeze arrives along the Wasatch Front — from Davis County south through Salt Lake and Utah County.

Between Visits

What you can do between tune-ups

A professional tune-up once a year is the foundation — but three simple tasks between visits make a real difference in how your system performs.

Change Your Air Filter Every 1–3 Months

The highest-impact thing you can do on your own. A clogged filter forces the system to work harder, raises energy bills, and wears out the blower motor faster. Basic 1-inch filters need replacing every 4–6 weeks; pleated filters every 2–3 months. During Utah’s summer wildfire season (July–September), check monthly — smoke and ash clog filters significantly faster than normal.

Keep the Outdoor Unit Clear

Trim shrubs back at least 2 feet from all sides of the condenser. Clear grass clippings and debris after mowing. Don’t cover the unit with a tarp in winter — it traps moisture and promotes rust. A loose piece of plywood over the top is fine if you want debris protection.

Test Your Thermostat Before Each Season

Before you switch from heating to cooling (or back), set the thermostat 5° above or below room temperature and confirm the system cycles on within a couple of minutes. If it doesn’t respond, check the breaker and replace the thermostat batteries before calling for service.

You keep a completed checklist for warranty records, home sales, or future service.

Signs you're overdue

If any of these sound familiar, it's worth getting a technician out before something breaks.

  • Your energy bills jumped without a clear reason.
  • The home takes longer to heat or cool than it used to.
  • Unusual sounds, smells, or short-cycling from the system.
  • Some rooms are comfortable; others are not.
  • Ice is forming on the indoor or outdoor unit.
  • It has been more than 12 months since the last tune-up.
