Short answer is yes. That’s also the long answer.

Your HVAC system is probably the most complex component in your home – and one of the most expensive to replace when the time comes. Studies have shown that people who regularly maintain and service their systems generally get several more years of life out of them. Also, their systems operate much more efficiently, resulting in lower power bills and a more comfortable environment. 

So yes – that preseason service is something you really should put into your household budget.
