Understanding HVAC Seasonality

Every homeowner knows that timing is everything when it comes to keeping your home comfortable throughout the year. Just like you wouldn’t wait until the first snowfall to buy winter boots, you shouldn’t delay essential HVAC maintenance until extreme weather hits.

Spring (March-May)

• Perfect time for AC system inspection
• Filter replacement and duct cleaning
• Outdoor unit maintenance before summer heat
• Testing cooling efficiency

Summer (June-August)

• Regular AC maintenance checks
• Energy efficiency evaluations
• Emergency cooling repairs
• Indoor air quality assessments

Fall (September-November)

• Heating system preparation
• Furnace inspection and cleaning
• Thermostat programming
• Heat exchanger examination

Winter (December-February)

• Heating system maintenance
• Emergency heating repairs
• Insulation checks
• Carbon monoxide detector testing

Why Timing Matters

At Basin Service, we recommend scheduling maintenance during shoulder seasons – spring and fall – when demand is lower and appointments are more readily available. This proactive approach helps ensure your system runs efficiently when you need it most.

Emergency vs. Planned Service

While we’re always here for emergency repairs, planning routine maintenance can:
• Save money on urgent repair costs
• Extend equipment lifespan
• Improve energy efficiency
• Prevent unexpected breakdowns

Don’t wait for extreme temperatures to think about your HVAC system. Contact Basin Service today to schedule your seasonal maintenance and keep your home comfortable all year round.

Remember: Prevention is always better (and more affordable) than emergency repairs!
