Benefits of Regular AC Maintenance

Homeowners often view maintenance as an extra expense, but regular services will reduce your long-term costs by preventing breakdowns and extending the lifespan of your system. Your air conditioner needs to be serviced at least once a year. Regular attention will:

• Keep your energy bills down by restoring energy efficiency.
• Ensure that all components are lubricated and clean. It will allow for consistent, efficient cooling.
• Avoid unnecessary wear, thereby lengthening the life span of your system.
• Prevent a premature and irreparable breakdown. You’ll enjoy fewer repairs and disruptions.
• Prevent fire hazards by keeping your electrical connections in good repair.
• Keep your coils straight and unobstructed, so your system doesn’t wear down prematurely.
• Keep your air pure by removing debris and cleaning clogged filters.

Reliable Air Conditioning Maintenance

The summer heat and humidity can slow your life, but an efficient air conditioner will make those heat waves much easier to live with. Our maintenance strategy addresses every component and connection in your system, whether you rely on a traditional AC, heat pump, or ductless mini-split. We’ll address moisture buildup, raised utility bills, unlubricated components, and refrigerant leaks.

What Happens During an AC Maintenance Visit?

Annual maintenance is a vital part of protecting your air conditioner. It ensures optimal function and reduces the risk of breakdowns. Here’s what you can expect us to check or clean when we come to your home for this appointment:

• Condenser and evaporator coils: These need to be cleared of obstructions to absorb and release heat properly. We will also clean them if needed.
• Refrigerant levels: We will check and top your refrigerant levels if needed. Losing refrigerant charge can indicate a leak that needs to be repaired. If we suspect a leak, we will suggest the proper repair.
• Electrical connections: We will check and tighten the electrical connections if needed. This step will optimize the function of your system and eliminate unnecessary breakdowns.
• Condensate pan and drain: The condensate pan can get full of moisture over time. We’ll clean it and the drain to ensure they don’t overflow.
• Fan and compressor motors: These need to be cleaned and lubricated so they move freely. Without this step, you can over-work the motor, leading to premature failure.
• Thermostat: Many problems with the AC are actually problems with the thermostat. We’ll help ensure it’s working properly and communicating as it should with the system.
• Air filter: Our techs will check the air filter during this appointment. If it needs to be cleaned or replaced, we’ll take care of it. Remember you can replace the unit yourself every one to three months to keep your system running efficiently.
• Cleaning: During this appointment, we will thoroughly clean your system, ensuring it is ready to deliver reliable cooling throughout the season.
