Get the Most Out of Your Air Conditioner
Manufacturers recommend having your air conditioner inspected and maintained by a properly trained technician at least once a year. Air conditioner maintenance tune-ups are different than a diagnosis because it’s usually performed on an air conditioner that’s already working.
Additionally, regular maintenance on your air conditioner can improve your home’s indoor air quality. This can lessen allergens, pollutants, and even lower the frequency of air conditioner-caused eczema flare-ups.
When & How Often Is Air Conditioning Maintenance Needed?
Air conditioner maintenance is typically recommended at least once a year. It’s best to schedule maintenance before the cooling season begins to ensure optimal performance. Regular maintenance helps improve efficiency, prevent breakdowns, and extend the life span of your AC unit.
It’s recommended to schedule AC maintenance in the spring before the cooling season starts. This allows for any necessary repairs or adjustments to be made before the AC is heavily used. By scheduling maintenance during this time, you ensure that your air conditioner is in optimal condition to handle the upcoming hot weather. However, if you haven’t scheduled maintenance in the spring, it’s still beneficial to schedule it at any time during the year to ensure your AC operates efficiently.

Air Conditioning Maintenance FAQs
Scheduling an AC tune-up in the spring, before the full force of the summer heat arrives, allows our professionals to ensure that your air conditioner is ready for the heavy use of the months ahead.

AC tune-ups provide a great opportunity for our team to find potential issues within your air conditioning system. Our professionals are highly trained and experienced, so we’re adept at noticing when anything isn’t working as it should.
