Portland homeowners face unique challenges when keeping HVAC systems in top condition.
Our long, damp winters, pollen-heavy springs, and sudden summer heat waves mean your HVAC system works year-round — switching between heating, cooling, and indoor air quality management.
💡 A seasonal tune-up isn’t just “nice to have” — it’s your best defense against expensive repairs, poor air quality, and wasted energy.
🌲 Portland’s Weather and Your HVAC
Living in the Pacific Northwest means dealing with:
- 🌧 Moisture buildup that can cause mold or mildew.
