Holiday Closures Are the Perfect Time for HVAC Maintenance, Here’s Why

CCER • December 4, 2025

The holiday season often brings a natural slowdown for commercial buildings.

The holiday season often brings a natural slowdown for commercial buildings. Employees take time off, foot traffic drops, and many operations temporarily pause.


While it might seem like downtime, this period actually offers a unique opportunity to tackle HVAC maintenance tasks that are usually difficult to schedule during peak operation periods.


Why HVAC Coil Cleaning is Ideal During Holiday Downtime:



  • Minimal disruption: With fewer people in the building, cleaning coils won’t interfere with daily operations, staff, or visitors.

  • Boost efficiency before winter peaks: Clean coils enable optimal heat transfer and airflow, improving system performance and reducing energy costs during the coldest months.

  • Extend equipment life: Regular coil cleaning removes dirt, dust, and debris that can strain HVAC systems, helping prevent breakdowns and costly repairs.

  • Plan strategically: December offers a window to complete preventive maintenance before winter heating demands spike, making operations smoother and more reliable in the new year.

In addition to efficiency and cost benefits, scheduling HVAC coil cleaning during holiday downtime allows your maintenance team to focus on other critical tasks once normal operations resume. 

With one major maintenance project already completed, staff can dedicate their time to inspections, repairs, or system upgrades without being stretched thin.


This strategic approach not only keeps your HVAC system in top condition but also ensures your team starts the new year ahead of schedule and fully prepared for winter demands. 


Pro Tip:
 Book your coil cleaning now to secure limited holiday service slots. Acting during low-occupancy periods ensures your HVAC system is prepared for the busiest winter months.


Don’t let this valuable downtime go to waste - your building, budget, and staff will thank you.
