Summers in Sebree, KY, are warm and muggy, and you rely on your air conditioning system to keep you cool and comfortable. To prevent air conditioning breakdowns, lower your utility bills and keep your indoor air healthy, we recommend a springtime tune-up of your air conditioning system. Consider these three ways AC maintenance reduces air conditioning repairs and keeps you cooler.

During a tune-up visit, our technicians thoroughly inspect every part of your cooling system. This allows us to identify small problems, such as a worn wire or loose connection. By taking care of small problems now, we prevent major problems from happening in the midst of a summer heat wave. Taking care of small problems also helps you avoid pricey AC repairs.

The Indoor Air Quality Association states that regular AC maintenance reduces the risk of an unexpected air conditioning breakdown by as much as 95 percent. Maintenance tasks, such as cleaning the coils and fins, lubricating the motor and sanitizing the condensate line prevent major problems that could cause your air conditioner to shut down. Regular maintenance extends your air conditioner’s lifespan, too. You could avoid a comfort disruption and unnecessary HVAC installation expense by scheduling annual tune-ups for your air conditioning system.

A clogged air filter or dirty vents could impact your home’s air flow. If there’s not enough cooled air getting to each room of your home, some areas could be too warm. Low air flow also triggers your air conditioning system to short cycle. This not only increases your electricity costs, but it could also wear out the motor and capacitor. Our maintenance services include replacing dirty air filters and restoring sufficient air flow to every room in your home.
