As spring starts, you may be considering, is an AC tune-up worth it in Auburn? Especially if your air conditioning unit is recently purchased or was running good last season.
Here’s one way to think about it. You wouldn’t get a brand-new vehicle and never have to request any maintenance for it, such as getting new oil or buying new tires.
The same applies for your air conditioner. It’s a piece of equipment that uses fuel and has moving parts. Like a vehicle, it can end up with leaks and its moving components can malfunction.
Having your unit checked yearly by a Forster Heating professional can help find small issues before they become large breakdowns. (And cause your equipment to stop operating!)
6 Reasons to Tune Up Your AC in the Spring
- It keeps your equipment clean. Since your AC is located outdoors, it’s more vulnerable to experiencing a buildup of dirt, leaves and other yard clippings, which can negatively affect your unit’s efficiency. While you can use our how to clean your AC guide, we recommend calling an expert to service complicated internal parts.
- It keeps your equipment efficient. Dirt and yard debris that build up within your unit can push it to work harder and decrease airflow. Both these issues can lead to elevated energy use—and a more expensive utility bill!
- It could lengthen your unit’s life span. A clean AC is an efficient one and may even help it last for a greater period of time. That’s money that you’ll save on your monthly energy expenses and over the years, because you won’t have to get new equipment as soon.
- It helps find little problems before they become major, pricey problems. During professional AC maintenance, your technician will closely examine components and carry out a set of AC performance checks. These all-inclusive processes often allow us to locate issues before they become extensive problems that lead to an expensive repair bill.
- It helps deliver stress-free cooling throughout the warmest days. After your unit is maintained, you’ll have peace of mind realizing your unit is ready to give worry-free air. Even on the hottest days. It’s one of the smartest approaches to keep your air conditioner from failing.
- It keeps your warranty valid. Most manufacturers expect yearly maintenance to keep your warranty going. Without this work, your system is vulnerable to advanced meltdowns and lowered efficiency.
