As warmer weather begins, you may be considering, is an AC tune-up worth it in Mount Pleasant? Especially if your cooling equipment is recently installed or was running well last season.

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

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

Having your system checked seasonally by a Olde Towne Heating & Air expert can help spot small issues before they turn into large malfunctions. (And cause your unit to stop working!)

Six Reasons to Tune Up Your AC in the Spring

  1. It keeps your unit clean. Since your air conditioner is installed outdoors, it’s more inclined to having a buildup of dirt, leaves and other yard refuse, which can negatively affect your equipment’s efficiency. While you can follow our how to clean your AC guide, we recommend calling a specialist to service delicate internal pieces.
  2. It keeps your system efficient. Dirt and yard refuse that accumulate in your unit can make it work harder and lower airflow. Both these troubles can create higher energy needs—and a more expensive cooling bill!
  3. It could extend your unit’s life span. A clean AC is an efficient one and could even help it run for a longer period of time. That’s money that you’ll save on your monthly electricity 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, expensive problems. During professional AC maintenance, your specialist will carefully examine components and complete a series of air conditioning performance verifications. These all-inclusive procedures often allow us to identify problems before they turn into extensive issues that result in a costly repair bill.
  5. It helps guarantee worry-free comfort throughout the season. After your AC is serviced, you’ll have peace of mind being aware your unit is ready to give worry-free comfort. 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 require regular maintenance to keep your warranty valid. Without this work, your equipment is open to early breakdowns and limited efficiency.
