If you are buying or selling a home, you will want to have an HVAC inspection to ensure that the system is working properly and so no surprises pop up after the sale.
As a homeowner, make sure you’re performing preventative air conditioning maintenance by regularly changing your air filters, cleanings ducts and having problems checked promptly if any arise. These actions will help keep your HVAC system running at its peak, potentially saving energy and money.
What Happens During an HVAC Inspection?
When you schedule your HVAC inspection, the HVAC inspector will:
- Make a spot check of the entire system
- Test the voltage and electrical components
- Check the filter
- Inspect the condensate drain for blockages
- Verify refrigerant pressures and temperature drop for proper cooling
- Check thermostat settings and test calibration
- Check electrical connections
- Inspect the condition of your HVAC appliances
- Test safety controls
- Test for problems with airflow through the home
- Verify that the safety switch is installed in the drain pan
- Inspects parts of the blower
- Check the refrigerant pressure
- Test gas piping and pressure
- Inspect the quality of the system installation
During a home inspection, the inspector will evaluate the HVAC system, but they have many areas to cover during their inspection. Having a separate HVAC inspection performed is the best way to ensure a more in-depth assessment of these critical and expensive home appliances.
