Air Conditioning Maintenance

  1. “How often should I schedule maintenance for my air conditioning system?”

    • It’s recommended to have your air conditioner professionally serviced at least once a year, ideally before the summer season. This ensures the system is running efficiently and can help catch minor issues before they become major problems.

  2. “What steps should I take to maintain my air conditioning system during the off-season?”

    • To maintain your system during the off-season, clean or replace the filter, ensure the outdoor unit is free of debris, and schedule a professional maintenance checkup before the next cooling season begins.

  3. “How can I improve the energy efficiency of my air conditioning system?”

Air Conditioning Repair & Malfunctions

  1. “How do I know if my air conditioner needs repair or replacement?”

    • If your air conditioner is over 10-15 years old, requires frequent repairs, or no longer cools effectively, it may be time for a replacement. If the repair costs are approaching 50% or more of a new unit’s cost, replacement is often the more cost-effective option.
