Benefits of Scheduling Annual AC Tune-Ups
We recommend getting an AC tune-up in the spring to ensure your unit is ready to handle the demands of summer. Prioritizing preventative air conditioning maintenance each year has many advantages, including:
- Fewer AC repairs: We can catch issues early before they become bigger, more expensive problems, which means you’ll save money in the long run on repairs.
- Reduced risk of premature AC replacement: When you use your air conditioner consistently throughout the summer, it puts a lot of wear and tear on the unit. Maintenance mitigates the effects of wear and tear.
- Better energy efficiency: Annual tune-ups can actually help your home comfort equipment run more efficiently — which can save you money!
- Improved indoor air quality: Dirty AC components and air filters can blow contaminants into your air. Get cleaner air with regular cleaning and maintenance.
What to Expect During Air Conditioning Maintenance
The best way to ensure that your AC is kept in prime condition is to let a licensed HVAC technician run a complete multipoint maintenance check once a year.
Our comprehensive maintenance checklist includes:
- Cleaning evaporator and condenser coils
- Calibrating thermostats
- Monitoring refrigerant pressures
- Checking motor amps

Frequently Asked Questions
What AC maintenance tasks can you do yourself?
While we recommend getting professional AC tune-ups to ensure that all your bases are covered, there are a few things you can do yourself to keep your AC in good shape:
- Replace your air filters
- Clean debris from around the unit
- Keep your vents clear
- Run a test cycle to check for strange sounds or smells
How often do air filters need to be changed?
It’s best to change your air filters every three months. Skipping this crucial step can keep your unit from running at peak efficiency and add dust and debris into your indoor air.
How can I save money on my energy bills during the summer?
Staying on top of AC maintenance is the most effective way to reduce your energy bills.
You can also lower your thermostat a few degrees when you’re out of the house.
If you have an older unit, it might be worth it to consider a replacement for optimal energy savings and cooling reliability.
