The Importance of an Annual A/C Check-Up

It may be tempting to skip your home air conditioning system’s annual tune-up, especially if everything seems to be working without any detectable problems. But as it turns out, that could be a costly mistake.

Your home cooling system works hard to keep your Massachusetts home cool all summer long, and the inevitable cost of that hard work is wear and tear on your equipment. The problem is that wear and tear can be difficult to observe without the right diagnostic equipment – and if small issues are left unaddressed, they’ll lead to more expensive problems down the road.

That’s why our technicians perform comprehensive diagnostics as part of our routine annual AC check-up, looking for clues about where your system is not running at its best – and for warning signs that will eventually make themselves known under the strain of day-to-day use (usually on the hottest day of the year, when your system’s pedal is to the home cooling metal).

Still not enough to convince you? Then consider this: your manufacturer’s warranty could be voided without an annual tune-up (most warrantees require routine maintenance to be performed during the period of coverage). Imagine discovering a problem with your AC unit that should be covered – only to learn that your manufacturer won’t pay for it because you can’t prove your cooling system was properly serviced.

Ouch!

The bottom line: An annual AC tune-up is a must-have for any home cooling system. It’s an investment that will usually pay for itself in a single season in the form of lower energy bills – not to mention the money it will save you by preventing costly, unnecessary repairs in the future.
