A heating and cooling system is a major investment for homeowners. You may be installing one for the first time or replacing your current system. It involves thought and planning to make sure you get the HVAC system right for your home. A unit that is too small will not work as efficiently and burn out sooner. One that is too big is a waste of money. A good HVAC system should last you at 15 – 25 years. When you invest in a mini-split heat pump system, you are getting an excellent system. Cascade Energy Services provides mini split heat pump maintenance, service, repair and installation in Mukilteo. We can install your new HVAC system or keep the current one in good shape.
Factors That Can Impact the Life of Your Mini Split System
Your HVAC system’s life span is going to depend on how well you take care of it. If you proved little to no maintenance, it will wear down faster than anticipated. Defective components can cause problems, but regular inspections can catch these. The wrong size unit for your home, especially one that is not big enough, can cause your unit to die an early death. Other things include:
- Corrosive locations
- Improper usage
- Extremely high usage
- Improper installation
Professional Preventative Maintenance Plans
One of the things we offer at Cascade Energy Services is routine maintenance plans. Preventative care can allow your ductless mini-split system to last well past the 15 years that is the norm. With regular inspections, small problems are addressed before they become big, costly ones. Spring and fall are the best time to get that inspection done. For mini split heat pump maintenance, service, repair, and installation in Mukilteo, call us at (425) 243-0371.
I highly recommend Bill from Cascade Energy Services. He did what other HVAC companies in the area weren't able to do. Instead of trying to sell me into buying a new HVAC unit (which is what I initially contacted him for), he found me a replacement part for my existing high-end Trane furnace, ordered it on my behalf for local pickup just down the road from my house. This saved me $$ by not having to replace my entire furnace. I had paid another HVAC company to come out and try to find the replacement part but they couldn't do it. Bill did it over phone / email and didn't charge me anything. I simply paid for the part (at wholesale cost) that he ordered, and once I plugged in the new part (pressure switch), my furnace was up and running like normal. I'd trust Bill on the any HVAC matters. He is very knowledgeable and cares about doing the right thing for the customer. I now have a trusted go-to source for future heating and cooling needs!
