The industry has a bad habit of using the cheap tune-up as a way to get in the door and sell something. Ours is an actual inspection with an actual written report — measurements, condition notes, and a clear statement of what needs attention now, what to watch, and what is fine.
Heating Tune-Up
- Combustion analysis and gas pressure verification
- Heat exchanger inspection
- Flame sense current, igniter condition, burner cleaning
- Temperature rise measured and compared to the nameplate spec
- All safeties tested: limits, pressure switch, rollout
- Static pressure and filter condition — the two most-ignored numbers in residential HVAC
- Venting and combustion air checked
Cooling / Heat Pump Tune-Up
- Superheat and subcooling measured, charge verified against spec
- Coil cleaning as needed, indoor and outdoor
- Capacitor tested under load, contactor inspected
- Compressor and fan amp draw compared to nameplate
- Condensate drain cleared, float switch tested
- Defrost cycle and reversing valve function verified on heat pumps
What You Get Afterward
A written report with the actual readings — not a checklist of green boxes. If something is out of spec you get the number, what it should be, and what it means. If everything is fine, you get told that plainly and we leave. A tune-up where nothing needed fixing is a good outcome, not a failed sales call.
No Membership Required
You can buy a tune-up without signing up for a monthly plan. If you want us on a schedule we will put you on one, but it is not a condition of getting service.
Service Area
We cover Green Bay, De Pere, Ashwaubenon, Howard, Suamico, Bellevue and Allouez, plus Brown County and eight surrounding counties across Northeast Wisconsin. See the full service area →
Why It Matters
Most manufacturer warranties expect documented annual maintenance, and most catastrophic failures give warning signs months ahead — a capacitor drifting out of tolerance, static pressure climbing, a compressor pulling high amps. Catching those is the entire point. The rest is marketing.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I have this done?
Once a year for a furnace or boiler, once a year for cooling. Heat pumps run year-round, so twice a year is the honest answer for those.
When is the best time?
Heating before October, cooling in spring. Off-season scheduling is easier and it means problems surface before you need the system, not during the first cold snap.
Will you try to sell me a new system?
No. If we find something genuinely at end of life we will tell you and show you why. Otherwise you get a report and a bill for the tune-up.
