Maintaining your air conditioning unit is critical to extending its lifespan. Neglecting air conditioning maintenance can lead to a decrease in performance, higher energy bills, and an increase in costly repairs. Staying proactive by contacting an HVAC company to keep your air conditioner well maintained is essential to avoiding these issues. Professional technicians can optimize the performance of your air conditioner while saving you a lot of time and work.
How Often Should You Maintain Your Air Conditioner?
The frequency of AC maintenance depends on multiple factors, including the unit’s age, how often you use it, and its location. However, most manufacturers and HVAC professionals recommend scheduling preventive maintenance once a year. Typically, we recommend scheduling maintenance on your air conditioner before the summer season. Signing up for a maintenance program is a great choice for homeowners who want to keep on track.
What Happens During AC Maintenance?
During AC maintenance, an HVAC technician will inspect various components within your unit. For example, a technician will inspect electrical components and their connections, replace the air filter, and check the refrigerant level. They will also look for any signs of wear and tear, leaks, or damage that may require repair.
Other Maintenance Tips to Remember
Getting your air conditioner maintained by a professional each year is crucial, but you can also follow a few tips yourself to improve the performance of your system. These tips include changing your air filter every three months or as directed by the HVAC technician. Keeping the area around your outdoor unit clear of debris. Using a programmable thermostat is also helpful in regulating your home’s temperature and preventing unnecessary wear on your air conditioner.
