As warmer weather starts, you could be thinking, is an AC tune-up worth it in Lafayette? Even if your cooling system is recently purchased or was running just fine last season.

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

The same applies for your air conditioning. It’s equipment that needs fuel and has moving pieces. Like a vehicle, it can get leaks and its moving components can break down.

Having your unit checked yearly by a AC Sales expert can help spot small issues before they lead to large meltdowns. (And cause your system to stop running!)

Six Reasons to Tune Up Your AC in the Spring

  1. It keeps your equipment clean. Since your air conditioner is placed outdoors, it’s more vulnerable to having a buildup of dirt, leaves and other yard debris, which can majorly affect your system’s efficiency. While you can try our how to clean your AC guide, we recommend calling a professional to service complicated internal components.
  2. It keeps your AC efficient. Dirt and yard refuse that accumulate in your equipment can make it work harder and lower airflow. Both these issues can create higher energy use—and a bigger cooling bill!
  3. It could extend your system’s life span. A clean system is an efficient one and could even help it last for a longer period of time. That’s money that you’ll save on your monthly energy costs and over the years, since you won’t have to buy new equipment as fast.
  4. It helps locate little troubles before they lead to big, costly problems. During professional AC maintenance, your technician will keenly examine components and complete a cycle of air conditioning performance verifications. These detailed procedures often allow us to find troubles before they turn into major problems that result in a pricey repair bill.
  5. It helps deliver worry-free operation throughout the warmest days. After your AC is serviced, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your unit is ready to deliver worry-free comfort. Even on the most humid days. It’s one of the best methods to keep your air conditioner from failing.
  6. It keeps your warranty valid. Most manufacturers call for regular maintenance to keep your warranty in place. Without this tune-up, your system is open to premature breakdowns and decreased efficiency.
