Quick answer
- Real tune-ups measure things (pressures, amp draws, temperature split) and give you the readings.
- Heating and cooling checks are different jobs — year-round equipment like heat pumps deserves attention in both seasons.
- The highest-value catches are cheap parts on their way out: capacitors, contactors, ignition components, clogged drains.
- A tune-up that ends in a replacement pitch with no measurements shown is a sales visit, not maintenance.
The checklist that matters (cooling/heat pump)
Refrigerant pressures and superheat/subcool against manufacturer targets; capacitor values; contactor condition; blower amp draw; coil cleanliness (both coils); condensate drain flushed; temperature split across the coil; defrost operation (heat pumps); thermostat calibration. Each reading either matches spec or tells us exactly what's drifting.
The checklist that matters (heating)
For furnaces: heat exchanger inspection, burner and flame-sensor cleaning, ignition sequence, gas pressure, temperature rise vs. nameplate, safety limit tests, and combustion venting. For heat pumps in heating season: reversing valve operation, auxiliary/backup heat staging, and outdoor unit drainage so defrost water doesn't ice the pad.
Why it pays for itself
Failing capacitors and dirty coils are quiet efficiency thieves long before they're breakdowns. Catching them costs little; missing them costs compressors and heat exchangers. Maintained systems also keep manufacturer warranties intact — most require documented annual service.
How to judge the visit
You should get findings with numbers, honest condition grades, and photos when something's noteworthy. Recommendations should split into 'safety/now,' 'soon,' and 'watch.' At Infinity a tune-up is a technician visit, not a sales appointment — if something's fine, the report says it's fine.

Common questions
How often does a heat pump need service?
Once a year minimum; ideally a cooling-focused visit and a heating-focused visit since it works both seasons. Our maintenance plans schedule these automatically.
Is a tune-up worth it on a newer system?
Yes — years one through three are when installation-related issues (charge, drainage, settings) surface, and documented service protects the warranty you paid for.
What's NOT included in a tune-up?
Repairs and parts are separate — a tune-up finds and prevents. If we discover a failing part, you get a straight quote and the choice; nothing gets replaced without your OK.
