When it comes to HVAC systems, proactive maintenance is always better than retroactive repairs. As the weather begins to heat up, now is the time to get a head start on those sweltering Texan summers. Spring is the perfect time to schedule an air conditioner tune-up.
Here are 5 reasons why:
- Cleans the unit – All HVAC units need some TLC. Especially over the course of a dormant winter and allergen-heavy spring, air conditioners can accumulate dust, pet dander, dirt, and debris. A dirty unit can cause performance problems not to mention lowering air quality. Before you start running your A/C all summer, get an air conditioner tune-up to make sure it’s clean and ready to go.
- Checks connections – HVAC connections experience regular wear and tear over the course of the year. To make sure your A/C runs unimpeded all summer long, a springtime tune-up will inspect the connections and mechanical workings of the unit and make any necessary repairs.
- Measures refrigerant levels – Air conditioners need to be topped up with refrigerant every now and again, and checking the levels regularly will make sure you’re never without it. A springtime air conditioner tune-up prepares your unit to handle the coming heat by ensuring the proper refrigerant levels.
- Checks for blockages – Blocked air ducts can bring an air conditioner to a grinding halt. An air conditioner tune-up checks for blockages to keep things flowing.
- Tests overall operations – We always do a test run of your A/C unit during a springtime tune-up. We want to make sure everything is running smoothly, and we observe the unit in action to catch any potential problems.
