Benefits of Preventive AC Maintenance

Now that we’re getting closer to summer, this is the perfect time to have your air conditioner tuned-up and maintained by your local Orlando AC contractor. 

But are annual service plans worth the investment?

Many homeowners simply replace their air filter every couple of months but fail to inspect other parts of their AC equipment. Comprehensive AC maintenance will include not only filter replacements but also component checks, coil and drain pan cleaning, electrical inspections, thermostat calibration, and other tasks. 

Here are four reasons why investing in annual AC maintenance is essential for Orlando homeowners.

Lower Utility Bills/Greater Energy Savings

Healthy air conditioners are able to run efficiently without having to strain to provide you with the cool air you need. With greater efficiency comes lower utility costs and increased energy savings. 

By scheduling annual AC maintenance, you won’t have to worry about unexpected spikes in your utility bill. You can rest easy knowing that your AC will continue to work efficiently year-round. 

Save Money on Unnecessary Repairs

Poorly maintained air conditioners are more likely to experience recurring problems. 

If you fail to replace the filter regularly, or the evaporator coil freezes due to restricted airflow, your AC unit will have to work harder. This can result in frequent problems and leave you calling for constant repairs. 

Schedule professional maintenance once a year and avoid wasting time and money on unnecessary service calls. 

Maintain Consistent Indoor Temperatures and Comfort

Inefficient air conditioners will have trouble providing you with the level of cooling you’re used to. You may notice that your unit is running well enough, but there’s no cool air coming out. 

Homeowners who invest in regular AC maintenance will have the opportunity to catch problems like this early on and have them fixed by their HVAC professional before it starts to affect your indoor comfort and air quality. 

Extended System Life

The typical air conditioner can last at least 10 to 15 years. But without proper maintenance, your unit can fail sooner than expected. 

Help your AC last longer by taking the time to have it inspected, tuned-up, and maintained regularly. 

If your AC starts to show signs of inefficiency, your Orlando AC contractor will be able to troubleshoot the problem and help you determine if your unit can be repaired or if replacement is the more practical option.
