Spring into Action
1. Spring into Action: A Canadian Facility Manager's HVAC
Maintenance Checklist.
As winter slowly fades away and spring begins to bloom, it's time for facility managers across Canada to turn their
attention to HVAC maintenance. With the change in season comes the need to ensure that heating, ventilation, and
air conditioning systems are in top shape, ready to handle the warmer temperatures and increased demand. In this
article, we'll provide a comprehensive checklist to help Canadian facility managers spring into action and make sure
their HVAC systems are up to par.
1. Check and Replace Air Filters: One of the simplest and most important things you can do to keep your
HVAC system running smoothly is to replace air filters regularly. Over time, filters can become clogged with
dirt and debris, reducing efficiency and indoor air quality. As spring arrives, it's a good idea to inspect all
filters and replace any that are dirty or damaged.
2. Clean and Inspect Coils: The coils in your HVAC system can also become dirty over time, reducing
efficiency and potentially causing damage. Spring is a great time to clean and inspect coils to make sure
they're functioning properly. Be sure to shut off power to the system and follow manufacturer guidelines for
cleaning and maintenance.
3. Inspect Ductwork: Ductwork can become damaged or disconnected over time, leading to energy loss and
decreased indoor air quality. Take the time to inspect all ductwork for signs of damage or wear, and repair
as needed. Sealing ductwork can also improve energy efficiency and indoor air quality.
4. Check Thermostats and Controls: Thermostats and other HVAC controls can become outdated or
malfunction over time. Spring is a good time to inspect and test all controls and replace or upgrade as
needed. Consider upgrading to programmable thermostats, which can save energy and improve comfort.
2. 5. Test Refrigerant Levels: HVAC systems that use refrigerant can become low on coolant over time,
reducing efficiency and causing potential damage. Spring is a good time to test refrigerant levels and add
coolant as needed. Be sure to follow manufacturer guidelines and safety precautions when handling
refrigerant.
6. Inspect Electrical Connections: Electrical connections in your HVAC system can become loose or
damaged over time, leading to inefficiency or even safety hazards. Spring is a good time to inspect all
electrical connections and tighten or repair as needed.
7. Clean and Maintain Condensate Drains: HVAC systems generate condensate, which is usually drained
away from the system. Over time, these drains can become clogged with debris, leading to inefficiency and
potentially causing damage. Spring is a good time to clean and maintain all condensate drains to ensure
proper drainage.
By following this checklist, Canadian facility managers can ensure that their HVAC systems are running
at peak efficiency and performance as spring arrives. A well-maintained HVAC system can also help to
improve indoor air quality, reduce energy costs, and prolong the life of the system. Don't wait until
summer arrives to address HVAC maintenance needs - spring into action and keep your facility running
smoothly all year long.
