Maintenance Tips


Enjoy the full potential of your York product and extend its useful life with these helpful maintenance tips.

Although mechanical heating and cooling equipment is complex, there are some basic preventive maintenance procedures that you can perform to keep your system running at its best. (If your air conditioner or heat pump is more than 10 years old or your furnace is more than 12 years, call your York Dealer to see how much you can reduce your utility bills with more energy efficient equipment.)

Indoor Air Quality Equipment Maintenance

  • Follow manufacturers instructions for changing (or cleaning) air filters in air handlers/furnaces and other home comfort equipment. Some air cleaners require only an annual filter change, while others need more frequent replacement.

  • Maintaining proper humidity levels can greatly reduce airborne allergens. Make sure pans and coils of humidification/dehumidification unit are clean and free of debris.

  • Regularly clean your return grills to prevent dust and debris from accumulating in ducts and clogging filters.

  • Examine ducts around air handler for holes, loose tape or separated sections that might allow air infiltration.

  • Make sure air system is balanced to avoid negative air pressure from pulling pollens and allergens into home. Consider using a dedicated ventilation system to introduce filtered outside air to create positive pressure with clean air.
