An AC unit is one of the most important appliances in a home. As a homeowner, you must ensure that your AC unit is maintained throughout the year. As time goes by, your air conditioner becomes less efficient because of the leaks and dirt that accumulates inside. Regular maintenance helps your unit to perform efficiently. Regular tune-ups also help to extend its lifespan.
How Often Should an AC Unit Be Serviced?
As mentioned earlier, regular maintenance of your AC unit makes it run smoothly and efficiently. Experts recommend that you have your air conditioner serviced on an annual basis. Although there are certain minor issues you can fix on your own, it’s advisable to have your unit checked and serviced by a professional technician. Conan Heating & Air Conditioning has qualified and experienced technicians you can rely on at any time.
What Does Air Conditioning Maintenance Include?
Thermostat Calibration
The thermostat is one of the most crucial components of your cooling system. You need to ensure that it’s always working normally. If you believe there’s an issue with your thermostat, then the best thing is to contact a professional technician. They’ll calibrate and test it for accuracy.
Electrical Connection
During routine maintenance, our HVAC technicians will also check electrical wiring to avoid any electrical hazards. They’ll ensure all wires are well-insulated and all connections are tight.
Lubricating Parts
An air conditioner has many moving parts that require proper lubrication. Without adequate lubrication, AC components will rub against each other and damage your unit permanently. Our technician will check areas that require lubrication and fix the problem.
Inspecting Ductwork
The ductwork is considered the lifeblood of an air conditioner. Cold air is circulated throughout the duct system. A technician will check and ensure your ducts are working properly during maintenance.
