When Should I Get AC Maintenance?
Here at Associated Heating & Air, we recommend scheduling your air conditioner maintenance during the spring season. If you follow this habit every year, you will greatly increase the life span of your system and reduce your chances of needing to make frequent repairs.
One reason we recommend performing AC maintenance in the spring is to set your system up for success before the hot summer months arrive. By checking that the internal components are working correctly before you need to increase your AC usage, you will be ready to go whenever the temperatures start to rise. You will also be able to stay comfortable without needing to make surprise repairs if there is an early-season heat wave.
Another reason why you should schedule air conditioning maintenance during the spring is to make sure you get an appointment and have access to replacement components if you need them. Many homeowners wait until the first hot day of the summer to turn on their air conditioner, only to be surprised to find out that it is not working. When this happens, demand for replacement parts can cause temporary shortages, and it can be difficult to schedule an appointment with an HVAC company. By getting ahead of the game and setting up your maintenance in the spring, you will guarantee that you can get an appointment with a professional to check your AC system.
Scheduling yearly maintenance also provides the following benefits:
- Improved air quality
- A more efficient HVAC system
- Fewer breakdowns
- Consistent comfort
- Warranty compliance
