AC Maintenance & Tune-up FAQs

What is standard HVAC maintenance?

Checking and cleaning air filters, inspecting and cleaning evaporator and condenser coils, testing and adjusting thermostat settings, lubricating moving parts, examining electrical connections, checking refrigerant levels, inspecting and cleaning the condensate drain line, and assessing system performance are typical tasks included in standard HVAC maintenance. Regular maintenance improves the indoor environment's comfort and air quality by ensuring the HVAC system performs effectively, uses less energy, avoids breakdowns, and lasts longer.

How often should an AC system be serviced?

You should do maintenance on your home air conditioning system at least once a year and the same goes for your heating system. A once-yearly air conditioner service appointment is always necessary, even though regular check-ins and cleanings throughout the year are always a good idea to ensure your system is functioning properly. By scheduling seasonal AC maintenance, you can make the most of your time, your money, and the durability and security of your AC system.

How does maintenance affect my AC’s lifespan?

Regular maintenance significantly extends your AC’s lifespan by keeping it running efficiently and preventing major breakdowns. During maintenance, a technician identifies and addresses minor issues before they escalate, reducing wear and tear on critical components. Clean filters, properly lubricated parts, and well-maintained coils ensure the system operates smoothly, reducing the strain on the unit. Without regular maintenance, small problems can worsen, leading to costly repairs and shortening the overall lifespan of your AC system.

What are the signs that my AC needs a tune-up?

Signs that your AC needs a tune-up include reduced airflow from the vents, inconsistent cooling or uneven temperatures in your home, and unusual noises like banging or rattling during operation. An unexpected increase in your energy bills can also indicate that your AC is working harder than it should. Other signs include foul odors coming from the unit, frequent cycling on and off, or the system taking longer to cool your space. Regular tune-ups can address these issues and improve efficiency.

Why You Need Air Conditioning Maintenance

Maintenance is the top method of preventing breakdowns. We have an informative page called Why Maintain Your System that gives some great visuals of common problems that can be prevented with maintenance.

One part of maintenance that you can do by yourself is simply change the air filter. A clogged filter endangers your system by reducing airflow and causing the AC to work harder to achieve the same results. You can also check your outside unit and make sure there is no debris. For further maintenance, an experienced expert from Garner can help you.

You need regular professional maintenance to clean and check your unit’s:

  • Evaporator Coil
  • Coil Fins
  • Condensate Drains
  • Refrigerant Line
  • Electrical Connections

And that is just the start of the checklist.
