As spring rolls around, you might be thinking, is an AC tune-up worth it in Swanton? Especially if your air conditioning equipment is recently installed or was running just fine last year.

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

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

Having your equipment checked annually by a Northwest Services expert can help spot little issues before they become large breakdowns. (And cause your equipment to stop running!)

Six Reasons to Tune Up Your AC in the Spring

  1. It keeps your system clean. Since your AC is located outdoors, it’s more susceptible to having a buildup of dirt, leaves and other yard clippings, which can negatively affect your system’s efficiency. While you can try our how to clean your AC guide, we recommend calling a specialist to service complicated internal components.
  2. It keeps your equipment efficient. Dirt and yard refuse that accumulate within your unit can make it work harder and decrease airflow. Both these issues can create higher energy needs—and a more expensive utility bill!
  3. It could extend your system’s life span. A clean air conditioner is an efficient one and may even help it run for a longer period of time. That’s money that you won’t spend on your monthly energy costs and over the years, because you won’t have to buy new equipment as fast.
  4. It helps spot little problems before they lead to big, expensive problems. During professional AC maintenance, your technician will keenly examine components and complete a series of AC performance verifications. These all-inclusive procedures often allow us to identify issues before they turn into large troubles that result in a costly repair bill.
  5. It helps guarantee worry-free operation throughout the season. After your unit is serviced, you’ll have peace of mind realizing your system is ready to provide worry-free cooling. Even on the most humid days. It’s one of the wisest methods to keep your air conditioner from failing.
  6. It keeps your warranty valid. Most manufacturers require regular maintenance to keep your warranty going. Without this maintenance, your unit is open to advanced breakdowns and decreased efficiency.
