11 Apr The Benefits of AC Maintenance
When the temperature outside starts to rise, your air conditioner essentially becomes your best friend. And just like your human friends, you should be taking care of your AC and looking out for its well-being — and that means scheduling proper AC maintenance.
There are a number of reasons why you should have routine maintenance performed on your AC, including:
Better Performance
Without regular maintenance, you might not be aware that your AC has a loose part or frozen condensate line — and as long as those issues go unchecked, your AC’s performance will suffer.
Regular maintenance can prevent these problems from arising, or if they do, your AC technician can spot and repair them sooner rather than later, keeping your unit running in better condition.
Lower Energy Bills
When your unit runs in poor shape, it uses a lot more energy to operate, increasing your energy bills. Since regular maintenance can keep your AC running well, your unit won’t need to work harder to run and your energy bills can be kept lower, saving you money.
Cheaper Than Repairs
Sure, you’ll spend a little money on your maintenance appointment, but nine times out of ten, it will be much less than a repair service, nevermind a unit replacement if you really don’t take care of your AC. Maintenance helps save you money on future repairs.
Keep Your Warranty
Believe it or not, some air conditioning manufacturers will actually void your unit’s warranty if it’s clear that an issue was caused by a lack of maintenance. To keep your warranty, and avoid having to pay for future AC costs out-of-pocket, it’s essential to keep up with regular maintenance.
