Ever hear the old one about “out of sight, out of mind?" Most people don’t spend a lot of time thinking about the inner workings of their A/C systems. That's fine, until the A/C stops working.

The aggravation of living without A/C can be avoided by scheduling an annual preventative maintenance checkup of your air conditioning system, before you need to use your system this year.

In this checkup, a trained technician will check the operation of your system, condition of the major components, Freon levels, filters, and, if necessary, add lubricant to your compressor. The technician can also make sure the evaporator or condenser coils are clean, a task that is critical to keeping your system running right. A thorough check before the season starts can uncover problems waiting to happen.

Changing your air filter as often as directed by your A/C's manufacturer is preventive maintenance you can do on your own and it's another essential task

Of course, a potential breakdown isn't the only reason to schedule preventive maintenance. A properly maintained system is more efficient, and a technician can offer suggestions about filters and ways to program your thermostat to get the most cooling value for your dollar.

You don't have to spend a lot of time thinking about your air conditioning, but a small investment of your time now will give you peace of mind all summer. Give us a call today at Home Comfort Experts and let us schedule your preventative maintenance visit now, before the hot weather hits.
