What is the importance of having maintenance done on your air conditioner once a year? What could happen if I don’t get maintenance done every year?

Air conditioning is as important as having transportation around town. If your AC unit breaks in middle of summer in Florida people realize how important air conditioning can be. Most people don’t realize the importance of maintenance until their unit breaks and they need a repair.

Maintenance on your air conditioner will include cleaning of the condenser (outside unit) and air handler (inside unit) coils, checking the pressures, cleaning the drain line, inspecting the connections and a basic cleaning of the units (wiping off dirt and dust).

Every home owner should have their AC systems cleaned once a year to help prevent parts from breaking and to help maintain the efficiency of their system. No one would ever drive their car for a year and not change their oil. But people do it all the time with their AC system. Remember that your air conditioning is running almost all day everyday during the summertime. A repair could end up costing more then a simple maintenance once a year on your air conditioning system. It cost $59 to come out to your home and diagnose the problem with your AC. A repair can cost anywhere from a couple hundred dollars to thousands of dollars.

By getting maintenance done every year the technician will be able to notify the home owner if they notice an initial problem begging with the central air conditioner. This can make for a simple repair before the problem gets too big. The older the system is the more important it is to get maintenance done yearly to avoid costly repairs.
