About AC Maintenance

Regular AC maintenance is the key to reliable cooling, lower energy bills, and a longer-lasting system. Our preventive maintenance services include comprehensive inspections, cleaning, and tune-ups that keep your air conditioner running at peak performance throughout the cooling season. A typical maintenance visit includes checking refrigerant levels, cleaning condenser and evaporator coils, inspecting electrical connections, lubricating moving parts, checking thermostat operation, inspecting ductwork, testing safety controls, and measuring airflow and temperature differential. We recommend scheduling AC maintenance in the spring before the cooling season begins.

AC Maintenance FAQs

Should I choose a heat pump or a furnace?
Heat pumps are efficient for moderate climates, providing both heating and cooling with one system. They work best above 30-40°F. Furnaces provide more powerful heat for cold climates and work in any temperature. In very cold regions, consider a dual-fuel system combining a heat pump with a gas furnace for optimal efficiency and comfort.
How much does furnace replacement cost?
Furnace replacement costs range from $2,500 to $7,500 depending on type, size, and efficiency. Gas furnaces average $3,000-$6,000. Electric furnaces run $1,500-$4,000. Oil furnaces cost $4,000-$8,000. High-efficiency models (90%+ AFUE) cost 20-40% more upfront but save significantly on energy bills over time.
