“Well a lot of people want to know if it’s something that necessary or if it’s something that companies are just pushing, and I would say it’s definitely something that’s necessary. Just like you would change the oil in your car, it’s got parts and things in there that need maintenance over time – cleaning the cobwebs out of the electrical system and cleaning these coils.
That’s a big one on your maintenance, and there’s a lot of people who get maintenance that don’t include the coil cleaning. That’s, in my opinion, a waste of money, make sure that you’re getting the coil cleanings if you’re getting maintenance done because that’s a critical part of it.
A lot of companies will do two trips a year, one in heating and one in cooling, and that’s great. At minimum, it should be once a year - no less than that. What you can get with the two trips is some added benefits like a discount on repairs or no overtime charges.”
