How to Safeguard Your Home with Twice-Yearly HVAC Tune-Ups

Preventive maintenance doesn’t need to be complicated — especially when Lakebrink handles it. Follow this clear, step-by-step guide to see what a professional Union, MO HVAC tune-up covers and why it’s critical for your comfort and
safety.

Step 1: Choose a Maintenance Plan

Our Preventive Maintenance Agreement (PMA) includes two annual tune-ups — one for cooling and one for heating — plus a 15% discount on repairs, a year-long warranty on parts and labor, and no overtime charges.

Step 2: System Inspection & Cleaning

We thoroughly clean coils, burners, filters, and drains; check expansion valves, flame baffles, blower wheels, thermostat calibration, and flue systems to ensure efficient and safe performance.

Step 3: Safety & Performance Testing

Our technicians test electrical connections, capacitors, fan limits, refrigerant levels, combustion safety, heat exchangers, and amperage draw to ensure every part is operating within safe limits.

Step 4: Adjustments & Optimization

We calibrate thermostats, adjust burners for optimal fuel burn, and check blower belts for proper tension — ensuring consistent airflow and efficiency.

Step 5: Tune the Controls

Start/run delays, safety controls, fan switches, and manifold pressures are all measured to ensure proper cycling and dependable performance.

Step 6: Final Review & Communication

After service, you’ll receive a clear rundown of what was done and any recommendations for future maintenance. With our Comfort Promise and priority scheduling, you’ll never be left guessing about next steps.
