TIME TO TUNE-UP

Schedule an HVAC Tune-up

Save energy and money by having your HVAC system restored to its optimal condition

Looking to lower your home’s energy use and costs while preventing future problems (and headaches) with your heating and cooling equipment? An HVAC Tune-up with PIPCO is a great place to start.

An HVAC Tune-up can identify any problems your system may have and restore your equipment to its optimal working condition. Additionally, if you’re eligible, your contractor will install a new smart thermostat that can learn your temperature preferences and may help you save on energy costs.

The net result is a more energy-efficient system that can help you save energy and money.

Why Get a Tune-up?

Save money. A tune-up can help to prevent costly breakdowns, reduce your energy use and extend the life of your system.
Improve your home’s air quality. Getting an HVAC Tune-up will combat disruptive substances in your home like dust and pollen and help to improve your air quality.
Improve your home’s comfort. Regular maintenance can help your system provide warm or cool air more evenly around your home and minimize the chances of a noisy unit.
Help the environment. A well-maintained HVAC system can consume considerably less fuel, which is good for the planet and your wallet. Your Tune-up technician can also help you understand what kind of refrigerant you’re using, its impact on the environment and your options.
Get a Smart Thermostat. For customers that qualify, a new smart thermostat will be installed during the Tune-up, also at no additional cost.

Preparing for the Tune-up

Here are the two most important things to do before your Tune-up:

Prepare any questions you may have about your system, its operation or any comfort concerns in your home.
Ensure that the areas around your equipment are cleared out to make it easy for your technician to gain access.

One way you can help supplement the beneficial results of your Tune-up is to inspect, clean or change your equipment air filters. Your technician can show you how to do this. A dirty filter can increase energy costs and damage your equipment, which can lead to early breakdowns. *

Additionally, please see the following requirements for getting a Tune-up:

For customers that have an Air Source Heat Pump (all electric homes) a tune-up can only be performed when the temperature is above 35 degrees.
For customers that have a Furnace or any other means of heating, a central air conditioning tune-up can only be performed when the temperature is above 60 degrees.
