First, a few important questions:
1. Does your air conditioning and heating system seem to be working properly?
2. Have you noticed any changes in its performance?
3. Do you know the last time the critical components were checked for proper operation?
4. How well do you understand the operations of the critical components in your AC and heating equipment?
Recently, we received a call from a very sweet elderly couple. They were coughing and had raspy throats and they were inquiring about humidifiers. I called them and we chatted a bit before I looked over their system to see what was happening.
The air conditioning system was just 3 years old and the system was installed well enough…but I did find something that really bothered me!
Their electronic air cleaning system had not been serviced in 3 years. This installation company did not carefully instruct this couple about the necessary procedures to keep the electronic air cleaner working properly! I wish this didn’t happen!
New electronic air cleaning systems are great at cleaning the air. The right system will even trap viruses- i.e. swine flu virus, but they require regular maintenance to perform properly.
It is our mission at PMI to help our customers understand the need for proper maintenance. Many customers are amazed at how much better the air quality is with proper maintenance.
Needless to say, this couple is now a customer of Pearson Mechanical. Their electronic air cleaner will not go unserviced again! With the Pearson Maintenance Agreement we will verify system performance and do a tune up and we will verify the electronic cleaner is properly serviced (among other system checks).
Regular maintenance is essential for proper functioning of high-tech heating and air conditioning equipment and air filtration systems!
Make sure your system is properly maintained by a reputable air conditioning and heating company. If you have doubts, give us a call!
Thanks.
