If you\u2019ve ever asked an HVAC professional when the best time\nto schedule air conditioner maintenance is, they probably told you \u201cin the\nearly spring, before you need your air conditioner the most.\u201d This is a good\nrecommendation! Of course, you still might be wondering if you really <\/em>need maintenance. After all, why\npay for an air conditioner service when your air conditioner is operating \u201cjust\nfine\u201d?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, because sometimes \u201cjust fine\u201d isn\u2019t good enough! What if your cooling system isn\u2019t operating as efficiently as it could? This means you\u2019re paying too much to use it, and also that it\u2019s probably accumulating wear and tear a lot faster than it should otherwise. Maintenance is a preventative <\/em>measure, not a repair. With maintenance, you can reduce repairs, increase your system’s lifespan, and improve your household\u2019s home comfort. Read on to learn more! <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

What Maintenance Is All About<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Not a lot of homeowners know all that much about\nmaintenance. That\u2019s okay, that\u2019s what we are here for! Maintenance tune-ups are\na service that allows our technicians to comprehensively inspect, clean, and\nadjust components that need it in your HVAC system. This helps the system\nperform as it should, and do so in a cost-efficient way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, we thoroughly inspect to look for any repair\nneeds your system might have. Alerting you to these repair needs now, <\/em>means you can get them on your\nschedule right away and you won\u2019t have to risk having an emergency air\nconditioner breakdown right in the middle of summer when you need your system\nthe most. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSo, Now Is the Right Time to Schedule Maintenance?\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Generally speaking, yes, now is the right time to schedule\nair conditioning maintenance. It\u2019s the time of year right before you need the\nsystem the most. Of course, we\u2019re still dealing with chillier temperatures, so\nthis might seem pointless to you at the moment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what matters more about what time <\/em>of year you have this service done is how often <\/em>you have it done. Air conditioning maintenance should be\nscheduled once a year. This consistency ensures that your air conditioner\noperates as it should, for as long as it should. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re using a heat pump system to both cool and heat\nyour home, then you should have maintenance done twice a year, since this\nsystem goes through twice the work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Improve Home Safety and Comfort<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of the main reasons we suggest that you stay on top of\nyour annual air conditioning maintenance sessions is for the comfort of your\nentire household. Over time, air conditioners start operating less efficiently\nand effectively. Components begin wearing down due to natural wear and tear,\njust like what would happen if you skipped vehicle maintenance for your care. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maintenance can also help keep your family safe. AC systems,\nof course, are not inherently dangerous. However, they do have components that\ncan become hazardous, especially if you try to repair or maintain the system\nyourself, or skip maintenance altogether. Take refrigerant, for example. This is\na chemical that makes it possible for your cooling system to actually cool. <\/em>But it\u2019s not a substance you want\nto come into contact with. Maintenance helps prevent this!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
