As spring starts, you might be considering, is an AC tune-up worth it in Alice? Even if your air conditioning equipment is recently installed or was running just fine last season.

Here’s one method to look at it. You wouldn’t buy a brand-new car and never expect to request any work for it, such as putting in fresh oil or buying new tires.

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

Having your equipment checked yearly by a Rescue Heating & Air pro can help spot small issues before they become large malfunctions. (And cause your equipment to stop running!)

Six Reasons to Tune Up Your AC in the Spring

  1. It keeps your system clean. Since your AC is placed outdoors, it’s more vulnerable to having a buildup of dirt, leaves and other yard debris, which can greatly affect your unit’s efficiency. While you can follow our how to clean your AC guide, we recommend calling a professional to service complicated internal components.
  2. It keeps your unit efficient. Dirt and yard clippings that accumulate in your unit can make it work harder and restrict airflow. Both these problems can create higher energy needs—and a bigger cooling bill!
  3. It could lengthen your system’s life span. A clean unit is an efficient one and might even help it work 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 install new equipment as soon.
  4. It helps identify little problems before they become big, costly problems. During professional AC maintenance, your tech will keenly examine pieces and complete a cycle of air conditioning performance verifications. These all-inclusive procedures often allow us to find problems before they turn into major problems that result in a costly repair bill.
  5. It helps ensure worry-free operation throughout the season. After your unit is serviced, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your equipment is ready to provide worry-free cooling. Even on the hottest days. It’s one of the smartest methods to keep your air conditioner from failing.
  6. It keeps your warranty in place. Most manufacturers call for regular maintenance to keep your warranty going. Without this work, your unit is open to premature breakdowns and lowered efficiency.
