As warmer weather rolls around, you could be wondering, is an AC tune-up worth it in Beckley? Even if your air conditioning system is newer or was running just fine last year.

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

The same applies for your AC. It’s equipment that consumes fuel and has moving parts. Like a vehicle, it can get leaks and its moving parts can fail.

Having your system checked yearly by a Appalachian Heating professional can help spot minor issues before they become large breakdowns. (And cause your air conditioning to stop running!)

Six Reasons to Tune Up Your AC in the Spring

  1. It keeps your system clean. Since your cooling system is installed outdoors, it’s more inclined to having a buildup of dirt, leaves and other yard debris, which can negatively 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 pieces.
  2. It keeps your AC efficient. Dirt and yard debris that accumulate within your unit can make it work harder and restrict airflow. Both these issues can create higher energy consumption—and a more expensive cooling bill!
  3. It could lengthen your equipment’s life span. A clean unit is an efficient one and could even help it work for a longer period of time. That’s money that you won’t spend on your monthly electricity costs and over the years, as you won’t have to get new equipment as soon.
  4. It helps identify little problems before they become big, expensive problems. During professional AC maintenance, your technician will keenly examine components and complete a cycle of AC performance tests. These in-depth procedures often allow us to find problems before they turn into extensive issues that result in an expensive repair bill.
  5. It helps guarantee worry-free operation throughout the summer. After your equipment is serviced, you’ll have peace of mind being aware your system is ready to deliver worry-free air. Even on the most humid days. It’s one of the smartest methods to keep your air conditioner from failing.
  6. It keeps your warranty going. Most manufacturers expect regular maintenance to keep your warranty valid. Without this tune-up, your unit is open to premature breakdowns and decreased efficiency.
