AIR CONDITIONING MAINTENANCE DONE RIGHT
You should get your AC system serviced once a year. Air conditioning maintenance focuses on small improvements that can help your air conditioning run more efficiently. You will see improved airflow, which cuts down on how hard your system has to work just to cool your home.
Many people don’t realize what a difference regular maintenance can make in the efficiency of their system. Preventive services cut down on your long-term worries. Serious issues can develop when the proper maintenance doesn’t take place. When you nip problems in the bud, they won’t develop into something worse.
For instance, mechanical stress in your AC when a fan is not lubricated correctly can spark motors to burn out. Or, moisture from the evaporator coils may overflow when you fail to clear out the condensate pan. Technicians can recognize these signs of potential trouble and keep up with them each time they visit your home.

WHAT’S INCLUDED IN A PREVENTIVE AIR CONDITIONING TUNE UP?
You may have specific concerns that extend beyond this list, or you may realize not every item below applies to you. However, this checklist provides a terrific starting point for the tasks you should include in most regular HVAC checkups. The following items are the bare minimum our expert technicians will check when you schedule an AC tune up in central PA:
- Thermostat check: This task ensures your thermostat is working correctly and providing precise control over the temperature, as well as offering accurate temperature readings. Our technicians will fix any issues they find with this system, or else confirm the thermostat is working as it should be.
- Combustion analytics: This check ensures every control involved in the cooling system works as it’s supposed to. Your tech will make sure the system stops, starts and performs every other function as directed with no issues.
- Motor inspection: If any of the motors are dirty, blocked or misaligned, this will significantly reduce your unit’s efficiency. Any routine check should take the time to ensure this component is clean and free from any problems.
- Verify gas pressure: If you have a system that runs on oil, gas or propane, this check makes sure every fuel line is connected properly, with no leaks anywhere. If the techs uncover any problems, they will promptly fix these to ensure a healthy system for another year.
- Cleaning and replacing filters: No filter lasts forever. These naturally fill up with dust, dirt and other contaminants, and you will, therefore, need to replace them regularly with new filters. Doing so should be part of any annual checkup.
- Cleaning intake and exhaust vents: Can the air get in and out of your air conditioner with no obstacles? If either the intake or exhaust vents are clogged or dirty, it will limit your system’s efficiency and effectiveness, as well as restricting its ability to keep your air clean. Always make sure to get these vents checked during your annual maintenance.
- Inspect for accumulated dust and mold: Anything you don’t often handle will naturally have a buildup of dust over time. Make sure to clean this coating off your AC system every year to ensure the highest level of functioning. Check for mold as well, as this may limit your machine’s functionality while also indicating excessive dampness, which may be a sign of an underlying problem.
To ensure your air conditioner operates at peak performance, enlist the expertise of heating and cooling professionals for an annual checkup. Don’t hesitate to seek professional advice if you detect unusual sounds, smells, or behaviors from your system, even if it hasn’t been a full year yet. Proactive measures can catch issues early, preventing them from escalating into significant problems. Contact us today to speak with a specialist!
