Regular air conditioning service can help your system work smoothly and quietly. Whether it’s maintenance or a yearly tuneup, an air conditioner which is well cared for will work better, last longer, and break less frequently than one that isn’t serviced on a regular basis.
If your air conditioner needs maintenance, but you don’t want to do it yourself, feel free to call us. We can set you up with a periodic maintenance service to keep your air conditioner in tip top shape.

The Importance of Air Conditioning Service
We offer service for most air conditioning makes and models. If an air conditioner is working correctly, a homeowner may tend to ignore it. Just like changing the filter, regular professional maintenance is essential, and tune-ups keep everything working well. Regular tune-ups and maintenance can catch many problems before they become an expensive repair.
Air conditioning Repair and Maintenance
Your air conditioner, just like your car, will give you signs when it’s in trouble and needs more than maintenance. For example, If an air conditioner starts blowing warm air, or quits working completely, these are easy signs that it needs to be professionally repaired. We offer services for all of these problems and more.
Other symptoms, while they might not be as uncomfortable, also indicate a repair is in order. For example, it may start to hiss, vibrate, or rattle, or the breaker might trip repeatedly. There might be a weird spike in the electric bill or even ice on the coils. All of these are signs that the air conditioning needs immediate service.
Call us if you notice anything odd-looking or notice anything unusual about the functioning of your air conditioner. We will come and diagnose the problem and discuss options with you.
Air conditioning service FAQs
What does AC maintenance include?
An AC maintenance check is not as thorough as an Air conditioning tuneup, but is done to inspect, check, and lubricate various components.
Here are some of the things a maintenance service will check for:
Leaking
Coils
Damage
Debris around the outdoor unit
Fan motor operation
drain line and pan clogs
Blower
Lubrication
supply and return line function
Coolant level
Electrical connections
How often should air conditioning units be serviced?
We tell people to have their unit tuned-up twice a year: once before peak cooling season, and once before they turn their heat on. If you don’t have an HVAC or don’t use your heat, have the air conditioning unit serviced twice a year. If you neglect the regular maintenance chores such as changing the filter once a month and cleaning the debris around the outdoor unit, having a maintenance check more often is not out of the realm of reason.
We also recommend that people who have older or problematic units have the unit checked more often. We can make a maintenance plan for you, based on your cooling needs, the age of your unit, and the neighborhood environmental factors. We also recommend that our customers change their filter every month and keep debris and plant material away from the outdoor portion of the system.
How often should AC filters be changed?
Change your air filter every month. When you change it, if the filter seems excessively dirty, for example, in homes that have multiple pets or animals with long fur, change it more often. Filters aren’t expensive, and keeping your air conditioning coils clean helps the unit work better.
What is done during an AC tune up?
An AC tuneup is the handiest way for a homeowner to know that their system is in top working order.
