HVAC System Maintenance
Maximize Energy Savings and Ensure Top Performance of Your HVAC System with a Maintenance Plan
We know that purchasing an HVAC system for your home is a large investment. But, do you know that it costs more to operate an HVAC system over its lifetime than the initial purchase price?
For example, many problems are caused by dirt build-up and biological growth on the indoor coil. A dirty coil reduces heat exchanger efficiency, uses more energy to heat or cool your home, and leads to premature compressor failure. In addition, lack of maintenance shortens the life of every component in the HVAC system.
“For every 10% loss of efficiency, your utility bills can be 23% higher.”
Just as your car requires regular maintenance such as oil changes and tune-ups, the HVAC system in your home needs regular preventive maintenance for optimal performance. The HVAC system is probably your most expensive home furnishing. Why wouldn’t you want to protect it to ensure smooth, efficient operation that will save you money?

Let us help with our Energy Savings Agreement!
Lower Your Utility Bills
How old is your system? Believe it or not, your system starts losing its efficiency even after as little as one year,
For every 10% loss of efficiency, your utility bills can be 23% higher. By keeping your system maintained regularly, just like your car, you can extend the life of your system.
Making Your Home More Energy Efficient
The heating and cooling system in your home consumes the majority of energy accounting for 58% of annual energy usage. Keeping it running efficiently with a Fall and Spring tune-up by Echo Heating & Air offers the greatest potential for energy savings.
Making your home more energy efficient is a smart move. You’ll save money, you’ll be more comfortable, and you will help reduce demand for the earth’s limited energy resources.
Cleaner Indoor Air
According to the EPA, the air inside your home may be much more contaminated than the air outside. The average person breathes almost two gallons of air per minute! Keeping your HVAC system clean with Echo’s ESA program can help ensure that the air you breathe is as healthy as possible.
