Smart Homeowner’s Guide to Seasonal HVAC Maintenance


Understanding Your Home’s Seasonal Comfort Needs

As the Pacific Northwest transitions through its distinct seasons, your home’s comfort requirements shift dramatically. At Milwaukie Heating & Cooling, we understand that maintaining optimal indoor temperatures requires different approaches throughout the year.

Fall Preparation

Before the cold weather hits, it’s crucial to ensure your heating system is ready for the demanding winter months. Professional furnace maintenance should be scheduled early to:

  • Check heating elements and connections
  • Clean or replace air filters
  • Inspect ductwork for leaks
  • Test thermostats for accuracy

Winter Performance

During peak heating season, your furnace works overtime to maintain comfortable indoor temperatures. Regular maintenance helps prevent unexpected breakdowns when you need heat most. Our experienced technicians at Milwaukie Heating & Cooling can identify potential issues before they become major problems.

Spring Transition

As temperatures begin to rise, it’s time to prepare your cooling system for summer. This includes:

  • Cleaning condenser coils
  • Checking refrigerant levels
  • Calibrating temperature controls
  • Inspecting electrical connections

Summer Efficiency

When summer arrives, your cooling system needs to perform at its best. Regular maintenance ensures efficient operation and lower energy bills throughout the warm season.

Remember, seasonal maintenance isn’t just about comfort—it’s about protecting your investment and ensuring your HVAC system operates efficiently year-round. Contact Milwaukie Heating & Cooling today to schedule your seasonal maintenance check and keep your home comfortable in every season.
