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

What constitutes an HVAC emergency?
HVAC emergencies include: complete system failure during extreme temperatures (heat over 90°F or cold under 40°F), gas leaks or smells, burning smells or smoke, electrical issues like sparking, refrigerant leaks with hissing sounds, and water leaks causing property damage. These situations can be dangerous and require immediate professional attention.
How much does a new HVAC system cost?
A new HVAC system typically costs between $5,000 and $12,000 installed, depending on the type, size, efficiency rating, and your location. Central AC units range from $3,000-$7,000, furnaces from $2,500-$6,000, and complete systems from $6,000-$15,000. High-efficiency models and complex installations cost more.
