- Thermostat Calibration: Ensuring that the thermostat is correctly calibrated for accurate temperature control.
- Air Filter Replacement: Replacing or cleaning air filters to improve indoor air quality and system efficiency.
- Duct Inspection: Checking the ductwork for leaks and damage, which can affect the efficiency of the system.
- Cleaning: Cleaning of the condenser coils, evaporator coils, blower components, and other essential parts to remove dust, dirt, and debris that can hinder performance.
