A Texas summer is no joke – high temperatures and never-ending humidity that last for weeks. Certain things are necessary in order to stay comfortable during the hot months. Perhaps the most important one is a working air conditioner. Imagine coming home from work one June day to find your home a sweltering 90 degrees. You check your AC, and it is blowing warm air. You need air conditioning service right away and can’t imagine what it will cost you!
If you had gotten an AC tune up before it the summer, you might not have a big repair bill. An AC tune up is a good idea even if your system is running smoothly.
How Important are AC Tune ups?
Do you want your AC unit to be working when it gets so hot out that you can fry an egg on the sidewalk? An AC tune up is the key to getting the most out of your system. Here are five important reasons.
- Reduced cooling costs. A clean, well-tuned AC system works efficiently. When your AC unit runs well, it won’t have to run as long or as often, using less energy. Your energy bill will be lower.
- Improved air quality. Dust and debris gather in your air conditioning unit and filter into your home, harming the air quality. Clean filters, ducts and AC components take the allergens out of your home, making it easier to breathe.
- Reduced repair costs. Many major AC unit repairs can be avoided with early detection. Tune ups often catch a problem before it becomes a major issue, saving you a costly repair job.
- Longer life span. A well-maintained system lasts much longer than a neglected one, maybe even twice as long. With professional AC maintenance, your AC unit could work well for ten years or more.
- Increased cooling effectiveness. A well-maintained system will cool your house off much faster than a unit that is not cared for. You will be more comfortable in your home even on the hottest of Texas days.
What’s included in an AC Tune up?
AC tune ups generally include the inspection of all the parts of the unit. A technician checks filters, electrical connections, and all areas around the system to ensure everything is working. They look for leaks, loose parts and connections. They check the refrigerant levels and examine the condenser and evaporator coils. They lubricate all moving parts and replace or clean air filters. They tighten and replace items as needed.
