A malfunctioning residential or commercial HVAC system has a significant impact on the comfort of your family, employees, and anyone else on the property. While you can't avoid the risk of damage, you can reduce the number of times your heating and cooling system fails.
Berner Air Conditioning & Heating is a reputable and licensed HVAC maintenance company that offers routine maintenance for residential and commercial air conditioning systems. To reduce discomfort and other disruptions, our professional technicians provide AC maintenance services to communities in St. Tammany, Orleans, and Jefferson, LA.
The HVAC system in your home is a significant investment that requires regular maintenance to stay in good working order. Regular HVAC maintenance is necessary and unavoidable because it helps keep household repair and energy costs low while also ensuring your air conditioning system operates efficiently.
There's a good chance your HVAC systems won't get much of a break during the spring and summer. Because of a lack of preventive maintenance, your equipment may overwork because its components collect dust, organic growth, and other debris reducing airflow.
To minimize HVAC problems, our technicians recommend the following:
Professional home heating and cooling maintenance twice per year
Depending on your type of air filtration, you should change your air filters on a regular basis.
To ensure that your commercial or residential HVAC system performs optimally, you should implement a preventative maintenance schedule. If your AC unit and furnace have not been inspected in over six months, let Berner Air Conditioning & Heating's EPA certified technicians take a look and determine whether repairing or replacing components makes sense.
Routine maintenance is critical for the dependability and efficiency of your air conditioning units, as well as, avoiding unexpected repairs. Preventative maintenance helps you keep your energy bills low and your home at a comfortable temperature.
Berner Air Conditioning & Heating provides preventative maintenance programs to help you get the most out of your air conditioning system. We can help you manage your energy efficiency in order to maintain the air quality and comfort in your home or office. Our HVAC technician will perform routine checks to ensure all components are functioning properly as part of our preventative maintenance program.
As seasons change, humidity levels in South Louisiana rise, causing condensation problems in your HVAC unit and ducts. To avoid water damage, you need to have professional preventive maintenance done on your AC units, air handlers, and heating equipment each spring and fall season.
Regular preventive maintenance should include an AC tune-up. Keeping this in mind, the change of seasons is the ideal time for a system tune-up. Our expert technicians in St. Tammany, Orleans, and Jefferson Parishes will inspect your HVAC system and ensure that all functional components are working properly.
HVAC maintenance and seasonal tune-ups are pretty much the same, and both must be performed by a skilled professional. The most obvious difference is that seasonal HVAC tune-ups should be scheduled twice a year. Think of it as changing the oil in your car -- not when your car breaks down, but to avoid breakdowns. Performed by an accredited technician, your system should run trouble-free throughout the seasons. Contact Berner Air Conditioning & Heating for seasonal HVAC tune-ups in the early fall and early spring of every year.
Early spring tune-ups are for your air conditioner, whereas, early fall tune-ups are for your heating system, such as the furnace, electric heater, or heat pump. Depending on the season, some highlights of our tune-ups include:
Inspect the outdoor condensing unit and all the functional components
Check compressor ohm readings
Check the evaporator and condenser coils for refrigerant leaks
Rinse the condensing unit and coils
Clean out the condensate drain lines
Inspect all internal system components and control boards

The truth is that preventative maintenance and seasonal HVAC tune-ups are critical for your system's proper operation. Many homeowners choose to do these tasks themselves, but you will most likely notice an increase in your bills and annual maintenance costs as your system fails to function properly. Over time, you could notice major HVAC issues that may cause your system to fail and force early replacement.
Aside from saving money on utility bills and avoiding future problems, HVAC tune-ups and maintenance can benefit clean air circulating throughout your home. This means improved health for people suffering from pollen and dust allergies, asthma, and other respiratory issues.
