As warmer weather rolls around, you could be considering, is an AC tune-up worth it in Lexington? Particularly if your cooling system is recently purchased or was running well last summer.

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

The same is applicable to your air conditioning. It’s equipment that consumes fuel and has moving parts. Like a automobile, it can get leaks and its moving parts can wear out.

Having your unit checked annually by a James Heating & A/C, Inc technician can help spot small issues before they turn into large meltdowns. (And cause your equipment to stop operating!)

Six Reasons to Tune Up Your AC in the Spring

  1. It keeps your equipment clean. Since your air conditioner is installed outdoors, it’s more vulnerable to having a buildup of dirt, leaves and other yard debris, which can greatly affect your equipment’s efficiency. While you can try our how to clean your AC guide, we recommend calling a pro to service complicated internal pieces.
  2. It keeps your system efficient. Dirt and yard clippings that accumulate within your unit can make it work harder and decrease airflow. Both these issues can cause higher energy needs—and a more expensive energy bill!
  3. It could prolong your unit’s life span. A clean system is an efficient one and may even help it work for a longer period of time. That’s money that you won’t spend on your monthly cooling costs and over the years, because you won’t have to get new equipment as quickly.
  4. It helps find little issues before they turn into big, pricey problems. During professional AC maintenance, your technician will carefully examine parts and complete a set of AC performance checks. These detailed procedures often allow us to locate troubles before they turn into big troubles that result in an expensive repair bill.
  5. It helps ensure worry-free cooling throughout the warmest days. After your system is serviced, you’ll have peace of mind realizing your unit is ready to deliver worry-free cooling. Even on the muggiest days. It’s one of the smartest methods to keep your air conditioner from failing.
  6. It keeps your warranty valid. Most manufacturers require regular maintenance to keep your warranty valid. Without this work, your equipment is open to early breakdowns and limited efficiency.
