As spring starts, you might be thinking, is an AC tune-up worth it in Elk River? Even if your cooling system is recently installed or was running good last year.

Here’s one approach to look at it. You wouldn’t get a brand-new vehicle and never anticipate to request any service for it, such as putting in fresh oil or buying new tires.

The same affects your air conditioning. It’s equipment that consumes fuel and has moving parts. Like a car, it can get leaks and its moving parts can malfunction.

Having your system checked seasonally by a Home Comfort Heating & Air expert can help spot minor issues before they become large breakdowns. (And cause your system to stop running!)

Six Reasons to Tune Up Your AC in the Spring

  1. It keeps your system clean. Since your AC is located outdoors, it’s more inclined to having a buildup of dirt, leaves and other yard refuse, which can greatly affect your equipment’s efficiency. While you can use our how to clean your AC guide, we recommend calling an expert to service delicate internal components.
  2. It keeps your system efficient. Dirt and yard clippings that accumulate within your equipment can make it work harder and restrict airflow. Both these problems can lead to higher energy use—and a bigger cooling bill!
  3. It could extend your equipment’s life span. A clean air conditioner is an efficient one and may even help it last for a longer period of time. That’s money that you’ll keep on your monthly cooling costs and over the years, since you won’t have to get new equipment as quickly.
  4. It helps spot little problems before they turn into big, pricey problems. During professional AC maintenance, your tech will carefully examine parts and complete a set of AC performance checks. These all-inclusive procedures often allow us to locate issues before they turn into extensive issues that result in a pricey repair bill.
  5. It helps guarantee worry-free comfort throughout the season. After your AC is serviced, you’ll have peace of mind realizing your equipment is ready to deliver worry-free comfort. Even on the hottest days. It’s one of the best methods to keep your air conditioner from failing.
  6. It keeps your warranty going. Most manufacturers require regular maintenance to keep your warranty going. Without this service, your equipment is open to advanced breakdowns and decreased efficiency.
