HVAC Maintenance in Dalton
Two Seasonal Visits. 30 Itemized Checks. Scheduled Automatically.
Our Preventative Maintenance Agreement Membership includes two visits every year: one in the spring to prepare your cooling system for North Georgia’s long, demanding summers, and one in the fall to get your heating system ready before cold nights arrive. Enrollment means you don’t have to remember to call each season. We schedule the visits automatically so your system gets consistent care, year after year.
Each visit follows a 15-point checklist. Nothing is left to a technician’s judgment about what to skip. Here is exactly what we cover.
Spring Cooling Visit
Spring cooling checks and calibrations include:
- Checking the operating pressure
- Checking voltages and amperages
- Checking the temperature drop across the evaporator
- Checking the refrigerant charge
- Checking the evaporator superheat
- Lubricating all moving parts
- Checking the belt and adjusting the tension
- Checking all filters
- Checking the pressure switch settings
- Checking the electrical lock-out circuits
- Checking the starting contactor
- Checking all wiring and connections
- Checking and adjusting the thermostat
- Checking the air temperature across the condenser
- Checking that the condensate drain is open
Fall Heating Visit
Fall heating checks and calibrations include:
- Checking and adjusting the thermostat
- Cleaning and adjusting all safety controls
- Cleaning the burners and controls
- Cleaning and adjusting the pilot assembly
- Adjusting the burner for efficiency
- Checking for gas leaks in the furnace
- Lubricating all moving parts
- Checking all filters
- Checking the belt and adjusting the tension
- Checking the condition of the flue pipe
- Adjusting the pressure regulator
- Checking the wiring and connections
- Checking voltages and amperages
- Checking the heat exchanger for cracks
- Checking the performance of the heating system
That last item deserves a note. A cracked heat exchanger can allow combustion gases to enter your living space. It’s a safety concern that often goes undetected without a professional inspection, and it’s exactly the kind of issue a twice-yearly maintenance plan is designed to catch before it becomes a crisis.
The Team Behind Your Maintenance Plan
Every technician we send to a maintenance visit is NATE-certified, licensed, and insured. NATE certification is the industry’s leading credential for heating and cooling technicians, awarded by North American Technician Excellence, the nation’s largest nonprofit certification organization in the trade. It means the person working on your system has passed rigorous third-party testing. We’ve been serving Dalton, Calhoun, and the greater Chattanooga region since 1991, giving us more than 34 years of hands-on experience with the specific systems and conditions common in this area.
Dalton Heating & Air is also a Trane Comfort Specialist, a designation earned by meeting stringent standards in system knowledge, installation quality, customer satisfaction, and ongoing service. We’re a family-owned, locally based company built on honest work and straightforward communication. When a maintenance visit turns up a worn component or an aging system approaching the end of its service life, we explain what we found and what your options are before any work begins. Pricing is upfront, and there are no surprises on the invoice.
Our phones are answered 24/7, and we offer same-day and weekend appointments whenever possible. For homeowners and small-business owners across North Georgia, that availability matters most when something goes wrong. Financing options are also available with approved credit for larger projects, such as a system replacement that a maintenance visit brings to light.
Dependable HVAC Maintenance Across North Georgia & the Greater Chattanooga Area
Think of HVAC maintenance the way you think of a car tune-up: a little regular attention keeps the engine running efficiently and prevents the kind of breakdown that costs far more to fix. The same principle applies to your heating and cooling systems. A well-maintained system uses less energy to reach the set temperature, which can mean lower utility bills and fewer surprises. Neglected systems are more likely to fail during a summer heat wave or a cold snap, when your home or business can least afford it, and skipping professional service can void the manufacturer warranty entirely. At Dalton Heating & Air, our affordable maintenance agreements make it easy to give your systems the consistent care they need, without having to think about it.
