Frequently Asked Questions About AC Maintenance
How often should I have my air conditioner maintained?
We strongly recommend scheduling professional preventative maintenance once a year, ideally in the spring, before the heavy summer heat arrives and pushes your system to its limits.
Will a tune-up really lower my monthly energy bills?
Yes. When condenser coils are covered in dirt and blower motors are fighting restricted airflow, your system has to run longer and work much harder. A clean, well-tuned AC operates efficiently, drawing significantly less electricity.
Do I still need maintenance if my air conditioner is brand new?
Absolutely. Just like a brand-new car needs regular oil changes, a new AC needs annual tune-ups to keep it running smoothly. Furthermore, almost all major HVAC manufacturers require proof of annual professional maintenance to keep your 10-year parts warranty valid.
Can I just change the air filter myself and skip the tune-up?
While changing your filter monthly is the best thing a homeowner can do, a professional tune-up addresses high-voltage electrical safety, accurate refrigerant pressures, and internal component cleaning that homeowners cannot safely or legally perform.
How long does a routine maintenance visit take?
A thorough, professional air conditioning tune-up typically takes about 1 to 1.5 hours to complete, depending on the accessibility of the equipment and how much debris has accumulated inside the outdoor unit.
