We want our customers to be comfortable. The purpose of the video is to explain the importance of maintenance on their a/c systems. Though your a/c system warranty is not dependent on having maintenance, the manufacturer recommends it. By having the system looked at, we can look for a potential failure point for your system. Burnt relays, loose wires, and weak capacitors are some of the items we can find that will cause a nuisance breakdown. We also clean the condensate drains, treat rust, replace filters, clean/inspect the coils, and provide discounts on parts/repairs. Maintenance will extend the life of your system, prevent nuisance breakdowns, and help maintain the efficiency of your unit.

Feel free to take a look at our 32-point checklist here or visit our air conditioning maintenance page. If you’re interested in preventative maintenance on your AC system, please reach out. We look forward to hearing from you.

Are you concerned that if you invest in a geothermal energy system for your home, office or to heat and cool your swimming pool water that it will be difficult to maintain? The geothermal energy experts from Symbiont Service Corp in Englewood, Florida have put together a guide to geothermal energy maintenance of the unit.

A geothermal energy unit is relatively low-maintenance and much of the equipment is beneath the ground and that means it’s not exposed to the elements. In Florida, as you know, hurricanes are one of the elements with which we are faced and not having the heating and cooling unit exposed is ideal.

When it comes to major appliances, preventative maintenance is always best. Waiting for something to break down or crossing your fingers and hoping it doesn’t will usually mean an emergency service visit, usually after hours and on a holiday! Planned maintenance prevents unexpected surprises.

Budgeting for a maintenance visit for your heating or air conditioning unit may not be at the top of your priority list, but the money you put into preventative maintenance pays off in the long run. Additionally, if you have one of our experienced geothermal service technicians pay a maintenance visit and there is a potential issue, you may have time to plan for it and have it addressed before you’re freezing or roasting if it breaks down when you’re not prepared.

A planned maintenance visit is one of the best ways you can ensure the heating and/or cooling system will be ready when you need it the most. Schedule a regular service visit with one of our qualified professionals to keep the HVAC system running smoothly and efficiently. Plan for a service visit in the spring and one before cooler weather settles in.

Are you planning to close up the swimming pool and pack away the outdoor furniture now that Labor Day has passed? When you’re buttoning your outdoor living space up for the off-season the geothermal professionals from Symbiont Service Corp in Englewood, Florida have tips for how to maintain your outdoor kitchen so it survives the offseason. 

Florida residents are fortunate in the fact they can use their outdoor living spaces almost year-round — especially the outdoor kitchen and grill. Also, if a swimming pool owner has a geothermal swimming pool heater the pool can be used almost year-round; that is certainly something to consider for those pool owners who only get to use their pools a few months of the year.

Are you going away for Thanksgiving? Program your thermostat to help save money while you’re away. There is no reason to heat or cool your home if you’re not there to reap the benefits, right? If you have a programmable thermostat you can save money and enjoy your vacation without worry about spending money to heat and cool your house unnecessarily.

A programmable thermostat is ideal for families who work outside of the home all day as well. You can “set it and forget it” and know you’re not heating or cooling the home while you’re away. If you don’t need to maintain regular heat or cooling levels and your house is empty you can save money and your home will be more energy efficient.
