Industry Standard AC Tune-Up
AC Service You Deserve!
Keeping Cool in the Texas Summer
The summer months in the Corpus Christi area are humid and hot, and your air conditioner becomes your lifeline. If your system breaks down during this time, you’re stranded during one of the most uncomfortable seasons of the year until a professional can come to take a look and get your system up and running again. One very important way to prevent a system breakdown is to schedule an AC tune-up.
Even if your system is running “just fine” to your knowledge, there could still be underlying issues. Just like changing the oil in your car and having a yearly inspection, your AC needs similar maintenance to keep it working properly and efficiently.
Reasons Why You Should Have an AC Tune-Up
Although the Corpus Christi area doesn’t get overly cold in the winter months, your AC still has an off-period where it isn’t running. When you get ready to turn your AC back on and it hasn’t had a tune-up, it can be hard for the components of the AC to go from not being used every day to being used 24/7.
Given the amount you use your AC in the summer months, ensuring it’s up to the task of handling that much run time will keep you comfortable when you need it most.
AC tune-ups are also important for catching minor problems before they turn into major issues. Having a tune-up during the spring is much cheaper than fixing a broken HVAC system in the summer.
Tune-ups will not only ensure your system works properly but will keep you from spending money if something does happen to go wrong. Plus, a well-maintained system will last much longer than a system that goes unmaintained. Back to the car analogy: if you didn’t change your oil or get a check-up on your vehicle for years, it’s more likely to encounter problems. If you keep it maintained, the car will last for many years to come – just as your AC system will if maintained properly.
Lastly, a system that works properly can save your money on your energy bills. Tune-ups ensure your system is working as efficiently as possible, meaning it uses less energy to operate. After a tune-up on a system that hasn’t been well maintained, you could notice a significant drop in your energy bill. Who doesn’t love saving money?
