As warmer weather rolls around, you may be considering, is an AC tune-up worth it in Rockford? Especially if your air conditioning system is recently installed or was running just fine last year.

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

The same affects your air conditioning. It’s equipment that uses fuel and has moving components. Like a vehicle, it can get leaks and its moving parts can fail.

Having your equipment checked annually by a Temperature Doctors Heating & Cooling technician can help spot small issues before they lead to large meltdowns. (And cause your system to stop working!)

Six Reasons to Tune Up Your AC in the Spring

  1. It keeps your equipment clean. Since your AC is installed outdoors, it’s more susceptible to having a buildup of dirt, leaves and other yard refuse, which can negatively affect your equipment’s efficiency. While you can try our how to clean your AC guide, we recommend calling a specialist to service intricate internal parts.
  2. It keeps your unit efficient. Dirt and yard debris that accumulate within your system can make it work harder and decrease airflow. Both these issues can cause higher energy use—and a bigger cooling bill!
  3. It could prolong your equipment’s life span. A clean air conditioner is an efficient one and may even help it work for a longer period of time. That’s money that you’ll save on your monthly cooling costs and over the years, since you won’t have to buy new equipment as fast.
  4. It helps identify little troubles before they become big, expensive problems. During professional AC maintenance, your tech will carefully examine parts and complete a cycle of air conditioning performance verifications. These detailed procedures often allow us to locate problems before they turn into large troubles that result in an expensive repair bill.
  5. It helps deliver worry-free comfort throughout the warmest days. After your air conditioner is serviced, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your system is ready to deliver worry-free air. Even on the hottest days. It’s one of the wisest methods to keep your air conditioner from failing.
  6. It keeps your warranty valid. Most manufacturers call for regular maintenance to keep your warranty valid. Without this service, your system is open to advanced breakdowns and limited efficiency.
