Preventative Maintenance

HVAC and cooling systems work incredibly hard to perform their functions for your household. The constant stopping, starting and continual operation can wear down a machine quickly and unexpectedly if the proper care and maintenance is delayed. However, by performing preventive maintenance, or servicing your system regularly, you can maximize the lifecycle of your heating or cooling unit and guard against many unexpected failures.  Preventive maintenance inspections performed on a regular basis can uncover leaks, rust, rot, soot, frayed wires and corroded electrical contacts. 

Meanwhile, heat pump and air conditioning unit inspections should also include inspections of the fan, compressor, indoor coils, outdoor coils and refrigerant lines.  Air Pro Services is the preferred preventative maintenance air conditioning team in Lake Worth, Wellington, Boynton Beach, and through the Palm Beaches.



What type of filter should I use?

Standard air conditioning filters work well to keep your system and its ductwork clean, but they don’t really improve indoor air quality. To do that you need a media filter. The media filter rests between the main return duct and the blower cabinet and will improve dust and particle removal by seven times that of a standard furnace filter. However, upgrading to a pleated media filter will remove everything from insecticide dust to airborne viruses from the filtered air.  A media filter can have a life exceeding two years, and its only drawback is that its tight fiber weave can cause your air conditioning system to have to work harder to blow air through the house. Always choose a filter that matches your blower’s capacity.
