Maintenance
Owning, or even sometimes renting, a home in Lafayette, requires general maintenance to keep your investment in working order. It’s really all about being prepared. Per Benjamin Franklin, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” Maintaining your home’s systems and appliances wards off emergency situations and costly repairs while extending your equipment’s life. Take the time and money to perform general maintenance on a regular basis. Many of the maintenance services require the knowledge, skills, and tools of a professional. During the maintenance or service call, our technician will make any necessary repairs and/or alert you of a possible situation. Call Camflo Heating & Cooling to assist you in maintaining any of the following or to answer any questions you may have:
Furnace Maintenance
We highly recommend an annual service tune-up and cleaning for your furnace. Typically the optimum time of year to perform the maintenance is the fall, before you fire up your furnace for the cold weather. The purpose of the service tune-up is to keep your system running at top efficiency throughout the season, so you have heat whenever you need it. Our experienced technician will clean and check all the connections, controls, sensors, drains, motors, ducts, valves, and blowers, as well as your ignition assembly, thermostat(s), and smoke and carbon-monoxide detectors. Following your tune-up, our technician will instruct you on anything you could do yourself as maintenance between our service visits. One absolute action you can take is to change your furnace filter with the correct replacement every three months, or as needed. This goes a long way in extending the life of your furnace, as well as keeping your furnace repairs to a minimum and your indoor air quality high.
Boiler Maintenance
When you invest in a boiler system, you want to ensure it warms your home on a continued basis as efficiently as the day it was installed. You also want to do all you can to support the longevity of your system. Proper regular maintenance accomplishes both of these. A boiler is complex and requires a professional hand on an annual basis to clean and check it. During your maintenance service, our professional technicians will clean and check your boiler’s burners, combustion chamber, heat exchanger, controls, vents, tank, pipes, belts, anode rods, connections, drains, linings, and all connected components, as well as your thermostat(s) and smoke and carbon-monoxide detectors. Following your tune-up, our technician will instruct you on anything you could do yourself as maintenance between our service visits. One absolute action you can take is to change your boiler filter with the correct replacement every three months, or as needed.
Air Conditioner Maintenance
For air conditioners, an annual service tune-up and cleaning is recommended, usually performed in the spring. Our professional technician will check and clean the connections, coils, blower components, lines, refrigerant, drain, fuses, and thermostat(s), as well as lubricate all working parts. Maintenance you can do yourself between service visits is to remove any yard debris or vegetation from the top and sides of your outdoor air conditioner unit, as well as to keep it covered with an air conditioner cover or tarp in the winter.
Heat Pump Maintenance
For heat pumps, an annual service tune-up and cleaning is recommended, usually performed in the fall, same as furnaces and boilers. Our professional technician will check and clean ducts, filters, blower, indoor coil, ducts, refrigerant, electric terminals, connections, motors, and belts, as well as lubricate all working parts. Be sure to change or clean the filter every three months or as needed. You can also clean the outdoor coils whenever they seem dirty, and keep yard debris and vegetation away from the unit.
“Brock did a very good job, he was thorough, professional, and on time. I would recommend him for anyone. Thank u so much.”
“Malachi and Logan came to our home and explained the duct cleaning process thoroughly and assisted in making sure that the process was completed in a timely fashion. They also reviewed with me what they found after the duct cleaning and gave recommendations for future work. Very professional, polite, and detailed oriented. Thank you much!!!”
“Brock from Camflo called when he was on his way for scheduled appointment . Brock was very professional and polite, and he explained everything he did for the preventative maintenance service he provided. Great service!”
“Service was great! From the very start, within 15 minutes of posting a request for information online, I was contacted by a representative who walked me through the service option and potential availability. It was mostly because of that service that I decided to book a tech visit with them. I was slotted for a same day call, even though I was perfectly content with a visit in the next few days, another reason I went with Camflo. Noah provided ample notification to his arrival and upon his visit was able to diagnose and correct our issue. Noah even stayed and helped set up new thermostat and made sure the air flow was working properly. 10/10 would go with Camflo again!”
“Arrived on time – in spite of snowy roads. He thoroughly maintained the humidifier and was very clear about the function. I appreciate his attention to the matter and would be very satisfied to have him back the next time I require your services.”
“We enjoyed talking with Jacoby. He answered all our questions. Very knowledgeable and friendly. He also worked on our furnace when we lived in Rockfield and quickly found the problem. It was a pleasure.”
“Noah did a great job servicing my Geothermal HVAC system and found and proactively fixed a problem that could have disabled my system without warning.”
“As always, on-time and super knowledgeable. Thanks again!!!”
