How Often Should I Schedule Maintenance?

Regular maintenance is essential for keeping your heating system efficient and extending its lifespan. The frequency of maintenance depends on the type of system you have.

Conventional Heating Systems

Furnaces and boiler systems require maintenance once a year, typically before the heating season begins. Annual inspections ensure components like burners, heat exchangers, and filters are clean and functioning properly, preventing breakdowns during peak usage.

Heat Pumps

Because heat pumps provide both heating and cooling, they require twice-a-year maintenance—once in the spring before cooling season and once in the fall before heating season. This ensures optimal performance and helps avoid excessive wear on the system.

Ductless Mini Splits

Like heat pumps, mini splits also function year-round, meaning they need biannual maintenance. Cleaning filters, checking refrigerant levels, and inspecting electrical components are crucial for energy efficiency and reliable operation.

Regular tune-ups reduce energy costs, prevent major repairs, and ensure your system operates safely. Scheduling maintenance with a trusted HVAC professional will help catch potential issues early, keeping your system running smoothly and your home comfortable throughout the year.

Maintenance Improves Your Heater’s Lifespan

Regular maintenance is vital for maximizing the lifespan of your heating system. By addressing wear and tear early, you can prevent small issues from escalating into costly repairs or premature system failures.

  • Improves Efficiency. Cleaning and inspecting components, such as burners, filters, and heat exchangers, allows the system to work efficiently. An efficient system experiences less strain, prolonging its operational life.
  • Reduces Wear and Tear. Maintenance ensures moving parts, like fans and motors, are properly lubricated. This reduces friction and wear, helping these components last longer.
  • Prevents Major Breakdowns. Regular inspections identify potential problems, such as cracked heat exchangers or failing electrical connections, before they cause significant damage. Early intervention can save your system from severe malfunctions.
  • Protects Critical Components. Issues like clogged filters or improper airflow can overwork your heating system, leading to overheating and premature failure of critical parts. Maintenance prevents these problems, preserving your system’s integrity.
  • Extends System Longevity. Well-maintained systems can exceed their average lifespan, whether it’s 15–20 years for furnaces or 25+ years for geothermal units.

Routine maintenance in Hillsboro, OH, performed annually for conventional systems and twice yearly for heat pumps and mini splits, is an investment in the durability and reliability of your heating system. Schedule your first appointment with Shafer Heating & Cooling, LLC today!
