The best time to do preventive check-ups of your HVAC system is Spring and Autumn.
Most households nowadays are relying heavily on HVAC systems to go comfortably through the heat of the summer and chilly autumn nights. New models allow homeowners to control the parameters of the cooling, heating and ventilating in each room of the house, scheduling their systems or operating them remotely through an Internet connection.
Whether your HVAC system is brand new or it has a few years of activity behind, it should be regularly maintained by a professional HVAC expert. The manufacturer of your unit usually specifies how frequent maintenance should be, but for a unit to work efficiently, twice a year is generally the ideal frequency for check-ups.
Zac and Giovanni are always extremely polite, considerate and professional. We are thrilled to have the new A/C unit. Our unit was 18 years old and stopped working in the thick of 100 degree weather. Tom (the owner) came over within an hour (after hours) and bought us time by changing out some parts until we could have the new one installed. We’re very happy with Thomas Hoffmann A/C and Heating!

Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your kind words, Carrie! We truly appreciate your feedback.
Couldn't be happier with our experience. Our AC stopped working after typical hours and they were the only "24/7" HVAC service who was able to come out same day. Not only were they fast, but they identified and fixed the problem immediately and did some preventative maintenance (and showed me how to do it) to prevent it from happening again. Will absolutely use them again in the future.
Response from the owner: We're so glad to hear about your positive experience, Hannah White! Thank you for choosing us and we look forward to helping you again in the future.
Great service! Prompt, polite and got the job done quickly.
Response from the owner: We're so happy to hear that you had a great experience with us! Thank you for your kind words.

Fantastic experience! Our AC went out on a scorching Saturday evening. I wasn’t actually expecting anybody to get out that night, but when calling - I immediately got an answer, was on the schedule in 5 minutes, and Thomas showed up an hour later. He was honest, professional, and educational. Most importantly, I didn’t feel like he was cutting corners or trying to get in and out… a welcome contrast from most services these days. 6 stars out of 5, highly recommend.

Thomas Hoffman was originally recommended to me by an "insider" in the HVAC field, and it's one of the best referrals I've ever gotten! I've now been using them for four years, and two different homes. They are responsive, prompt, professional, and kind. They are also reasonable in their rates and honest in their assessments--no scammy upselling here! Most recently our AC went out over the weekend, and I called on a Sunday, expecting to leave a voicemail and hoping for an appointment within the next several business days. Instead, Nick Hoffmann answered right away, and he was at my house within the hour! Diagnosed and fixed the problem within another hour! They've definitely earned my trust, my thanks, and my business.
Response from the owner: Thank you so much for your kind words and continued support, Douglas! We truly appreciate your trust and are grateful for the opportunity to serve you.
The service was great. The installers and guys that brought the materials needed were great. Cleaned up afterwards and answered any questions that I had. Would recommend.
Response from the owner: We're so glad to hear that you had a great experience with our team! Thank you for recommending us.
The staff was very professional and friendly. And they took no Tim at all to find and fix the problem with my AC. I would highly recommend to my family and friends.
Response from the owner: We're so glad to hear that you had a positive experience with our staff! Thank you for recommending us to your family and friends.
Got here in about 2 hrs Went rite to the problem Did not take long at all I'm very happy and will call them in the future
Response from the owner: Thank you for choosing our service! We appreciate your kind words and look forward to assisting you again in the future.
This company is so responsive to me that I love them. They respond immediately and I trust them. It always cost me, but that is the nature of the beast. I haven’t been steered wrong yet. They are genuinely nice to work with and honest. I use their maintenance program as well. Highly recommend.
Response from the owner: Thank you for your kind words, we truly appreciate your trust in us and are glad to hear about your positive experience with our services.
Autumn HVAC Check-Up
The best time to do preventive check-ups of your HVAC system isSpring and Autumn. That’s because the unit will perform two entirely different tasks in between. After running intensively for the whole summer, it’s wisest to get a team to look at your exterior and interior units, the duct system, the pipes, etc. Making sure everything works properly for the winter is part of preventive maintenance, and it prolongs the life-span of any system you have.
Preventing Bigger Issues
Identifying potential problems or issues in their incipient phase can save you a lot of time, money and comfort in the long-term. This type of approach allows you to spot cracks, leaks, weakened connections, damaging factors and other things that would become worse if ignored.
Cleaning Up Summer’s Dirt
It is also a good opportunity to clean the system, the filters and ducts, as well as groom the area around the exterior unit. All of these steps will ensure a smooth start for the winter.
Changing the Thermostat Settings
For many users, setting up the thermostat is an annoying task. Use the autumn check-up as a chance of asking the maintenance team to do it for you. This way, you will make sure everything is indeed programmed the way you want. If you have any doubts on how to program and schedule your thermostat, ask your HVAC expert for help.
Schedule Future Maintenance and Getting Good Deals
An advantage of getting your HVAC unit checked preventively is becoming a loyal customer of your HVAC service company. A lot of companies offer discounts if you schedule your maintenance with them regularly. Saving a few bucks on the service, on top of the money you would spend on more serious problems, is not to be ignored. Also, you can talk to the experts about how you can choose a more effective energy plan, saving even more.
Now that summer has ended, the information above should convince you to pick up the phone and call your HVAC service team for an autumn check-up. That way, you can prolong your system’s life and fix any potential issues before they cause costly problems. Give us a call 24/7 (314) 471-7625!
