What Does an AC Tune-Up Include?
Throughout the year, your air conditioning system collects dust, dirt, and debris, which can make it less efficient. If your air conditioner is not running its best when summer rolls around, you could spend hundreds of extra dollars on your energy bills.
There are several things you can personally do to help maintain your AC unit, like checking your filters regularly and cleaning out your air vents. Other services are better left to the certified professionals at John Nugent & Sons.
At John Nugent & Sons, our AC tune-ups include both the indoor and outdoor units. We ensure both systems are free of dirt and debris. This buildup can restrict airflow, reducing system efficiency.
Refrigerant levels are checked and adjusted to be within manufacturers’ suggestions. Certain mechanical components of your system are also checked to make sure they are working properly, including:
- Checking all thermostat settings
- Tightening all electrical connections
- Lubricating all moving parts
- Inspecting the condensate drain
- Checking all system controls
- And more!
Why Is a Tune-Up So Important?
Would you drive your car for a year without having an oil change? Similar to the maintenance that is performed on your vehicle, your air conditioning system needs annual tune-ups to make sure it is running properly.
Unlike your car, your home can increase in value over time, so it’s best to take proper care of it. Between the cost of parts and the labor to properly install a new AC unit, an AC tune-up is a solid investment for comfort.
An HVAC system operates much the same as anything else. Tools, appliances, even people all need a level of maintenance and care that will ensure they continue to perform at their best.
Over the years, your system is exposed to dust and debris, as well as high demand, and its components will begin to wear out. A tune-up will ensure everything is in top condition, providing you and your home with the surety that when you need high-quality cooling, it’s always available.
Is an AC Tune-Up Necessary?
Other than safety and security, fully comprehensive professional maintenance can bring you quite a few additional perks and is absolutely necessary. When you choose John Nugent & Sons for your tune-up, you’ll also get:
- Reduced frequency and cost of repairs: It’s an absolute fact that many of the repairs we handle could be entirely avoided with routine, bi-annual maintenance. Why? Because common repair causes like component failure and clogs would absolutely be found early during maintenance. This gives our experts the opportunity to handle things before they become a big issue, saving you stress and money!
- Better cooling efficiency: Maintenance will ensure that your cooling is even, and wholly adequate to meet your needs. In addition, parts that are lubricated, in good condition, and dust-free are certain to outperform those of a system that hasn’t had routine maintenance. This means you get more cooling, for much less cost.
- Better air quality: The quality of the air in your home has a lot to do with common allergy troubles. The sneezing, coughing, and itchiness many of us associate with spring and summer are the direct product of heavy dust, mold spore, and pet dander that will all be mitigated with maintenance.
- Easier cleaning: Much like the above perk, your home will be easier to keep clean during months when your system is in use. The debris collected by your system is blown out through ventilation and ductwork, landing all over carpets, furniture, and fabrics. Keeping up with it all can feel like fighting a losing battle!
- Longer system lifespan: Having regular maintenance performed on your system can make it easier to cool your home — which, in turn, makes your air conditioner’s job much easier. Proper AC maintenance can lead to a longer life span for your system.
- Decreased costs: When your AC is working efficiently, you can save a lot of money on your annual cooling costs. On top of that, when you schedule annual AC tune-ups, a technician can catch and fix small repairs before they turn into large, costly replacements.
- Increased home comfort: An efficient and well-maintained air conditioner isn’t going to have to work as hard to cool your home, making it easier to provide consistent temperatures.
