Heating And Air Maintenance & Cleaning
Serving Chattanooga & Surrounding Areas
Prevent Breakdowns And Improve Efficiency
Routine Service That Protects Comfort And Your Budget
Heating and air maintenance and cleaning helps your system run the way it was designed to run—quietly, efficiently, and reliably. Dust buildup, loose electrical connections, clogged drains, low airflow, and worn components can all force your equipment to work harder than necessary, increasing utility costs and raising the risk of sudden shutdowns during peak heating or cooling demand.
A thorough maintenance visit focuses on the small issues that cause big problems later: restricted airflow, abnormal temperature splits, improper burner operation, weak capacitors, failing contactors, and dirty coils. By keeping critical components clean and tuned, you support steady temperatures, reduce strain on motors and compressors, and extend the service life of your furnace, heat pump, or air conditioner.
Detailed Checks, Cleaning, And Performance Verification
A proper HVAC maintenance appointment is more than a quick filter change. Service typically includes verifying thermostat operation, inspecting electrical components, tightening connections, measuring voltage/amperage where appropriate, checking safety controls, and reviewing overall system performance. Cleaning tasks often include removing debris from the outdoor unit, clearing the condensate drain and trap, and addressing buildup that can cause water damage or microbial growth.
We also evaluate airflow and temperature performance so you know whether the system is delivering the comfort it should. That may include inspecting the air filter and its fit, checking blower cleanliness, examining duct connections at the equipment, and confirming that supply and return airflow paths are not restricted. When we find something that is trending toward failure, we explain what it is, why it matters, and what options you have before it turns into an emergency call.
Cleaner Equipment Supports Cleaner Air
Your HVAC system constantly circulates air through the home, so system cleanliness directly affects comfort and air quality. Dirty blower wheels, clogged filters, and contaminated coils can reduce airflow and allow dust to accumulate faster on surfaces. When airflow drops, rooms may feel uneven, humidity control can suffer, and the system may run longer cycles to meet temperature demands.
Maintenance and cleaning can also address common sources of odor and moisture problems. A partially blocked condensate line, a dirty evaporator coil, or standing water in a drain pan can contribute to musty smells and elevated indoor humidity. Keeping these areas clean and draining properly helps reduce the conditions that support unwanted buildup.
If we see concerns beyond routine cleaning—such as damaged ductwork, persistent high static pressure, or signs that the system is oversized/undersized—we will walk you through what we found and what it could mean for comfort and efficiency. The goal is to give you clear information so you can prioritize improvements that make a real difference.

Honest Recommendations And Local Service
Repairs First When They Make Sense
John Kilgore Heating and Air provides heating and air maintenance and cleaning in Chattanooga with an approach centered on straightforward guidance and long-term reliability. If your system has a problem, we take the time to diagnose it carefully and explain the root cause rather than offering a one-size-fits-all recommendation. You will understand what is working, what is worn, and what is likely to fail next.
We are honest about options, and we will suggest a repair before just saying to replace the entire unit when a repair is the sensible choice. When replacement does become the better value—due to safety concerns, repeated failures, or major component costs—we will explain the reasoning in plain language and outline what improvements a new system could deliver.
For homeowners in Chattanooga, regular maintenance is one of the simplest ways to reduce surprise breakdowns and keep heating and cooling costs under control. Whether you want seasonal tune-ups, help resolving uneven temperatures, or a system that simply runs cleaner and quieter, our maintenance and cleaning service is built to keep your equipment dependable year after year.
