3ac-maintenanceWhat is a Service Agreement?

To put it simply, a Service Agreement with Efficient Home Solutions provides you peace of mind. It’s critical to have your furnace or heating system checked before turning it on for the first time of the season, to ensure no harmful gasses are seeping into your home. Likewise, it’s equally important to have your air conditioner checked out before it needs to kick into high gear and cool your home on those blistering hot summer days we’re so fond of in North Texas. The last thing you want is for it to be 105 degrees and your system dies on you without notice! With a Service Agreement, you’re allowing us the opportunity to check both your heating and cooling system each year, to ensure both are running as efficiently as they should be. Service Agreements have the ability to save you time and money, particularly since an un-maintenanced system doesn’t last nearly as long as one that is serviced on a routine basis.

 

Do you change the oil in your car?30348427_s

Did you know your HVAC system works harder for you than your car or truck? You probably don’t think about it, but your heating and cooling system probably runs 12-18 hours a day, now that’s a lot of work! Depending on how well your home is insulated and ventilated, it could be running substantially longer than that, just trying to keep your temperature stabilized! For the most part, we’re all pretty good at getting our oil changed every 3,000 or so miles, so why is it that the one piece of equipment that works the hardest for us, is so often neglected? The answer is simple, out of sight, out of mind. We typically only think about our HVAC system when it’s not keeping us as warm or as cold as we want it to, and by then it’s too late, there’s already a problem that needs to be fixed right away!

 

Common Misconceptions About Service Agreements

44023321_sWe hear often that “This is a new system, I don’t need any work done” or “I don’t need my HVAC system checked because it’s still under warranty”. Both of those might be true statements, however, a Service Agreement doesn’t mean we are making “repairs” on your system. What we’re doing is cleaning it, and checking for any potential issues that could cause it to break down, or not run as efficiently as it should. Think of it like the changing the oil scenario above, you change your oil to lessen the possibility of problems with your engine, having a Service Agreement to check your system twice a year also lessens the possibility of problems with your heating and cooling system that could end up being quite costly. We also hear “I have a home warranty that covers my HVAC system”. That’s great, we’re glad you’ve made that investment. However, did you know that if you don’t have your system serviced on a regular basis, it voids that warranty? Oh, and the home warranty company, they don’t provide that service for you, you still have to call a reliable heating and cooling contractor to take care of this for you. Not only does it void your home warranty, but it also voids the manufacturer warranty that comes with your unit, so think twice about skipping out on this valuable service!
