HVAC Maintenance & Tune-Up FAQ for New Orleans Homeowners

How often should New Orleans homeowners get hvac maintenance & tune-up?
Given New Orleans's year-round heat and humidity — avg high 91°f in summer with extreme dewpoints, most homeowners benefit from hvac maintenance & tune-up at least once a year. Year-round termite treatment and monitoring (Formosan threat is severe) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in New Orleans most need hvac maintenance & tune-up?

How often should HVAC systems be serviced?
Annually — typically once for the cooling season (spring) and once for the heating season (fall). Systems that see heavy use or are in dusty environments benefit from biannual service.
What does an HVAC tune-up include?
A full tune-up covers filter replacement, coil cleaning, checking refrigerant levels, testing capacitors and contactors, lubricating motors, clearing the condensate drain, and verifying all safety controls.
Does maintenance really prevent breakdowns?
