Ensuring that your cooling system functions smoothly is crucial, especially in Ohio, where the summers can get quite warm. Regular cleaning and tune-ups are the key to improving the performance of your AC unit, keeping your home cool and comfortable while also preventing costly breakdowns. C. Lee Services offers comprehensive AC maintenance in Akron, OH, with a team of experienced technicians trained to handle all makes and models and always only a phone call away.
Why Routine AC Maintenance Matters
First and foremost, efficiency. When your air conditioning system is dirty and filled with debris, it has to work harder to cool your home. This results in higher energy bills and puts unnecessary strain on the unit, leading to potential failure or shortened lifespan. Investing in regular maintenance keeps your AC operating at peak efficiency, saving you money on energy costs and preventing expensive repairs down the line.
Additionally, regular maintenance helps improve indoor air quality. An AC unit that’s not working properly can circulate dust, allergens, and other pollutants throughout your living space – affecting your and your family’s health. Increased humidity caused by a malfunctioning AC system can also lead to mold growth, creating an unhealthy environment. By regularly cleaning and maintaining your air conditioning unit, you can ensure the air inside your home is clean and safe to breathe.
What to Expect During an AC Maintenance Visit
Our certified technicians perform a comprehensive check-up to ensure your air conditioning system is in top shape. We will inspect the thermostat settings, clean or replace air filters, examine and tighten electrical connections, lubricate all moving parts, check refrigerant levels and adjust if necessary, and clean the condensate drain to prevent clogs. We also perform a thorough visual inspection of the entire system to identify any potential issues that may need attention.
If any problems are found during the maintenance visit, then we shall discuss them with you and provide recommendations for repairs. We believe in transparency and will never pressure you into any unnecessary or costly services.
FAQs
We recommend having your AC system serviced at least once a year, ideally in the spring before the high demand of summer begins. However, if your unit is older or has been experiencing issues, it may benefit from more frequent visits.
Strange noises can be indicative of various issues such as loose parts, motor problems, or refrigerant leaks. It’s best to have a professional technician inspect it to diagnose and fix the problem.
While there are some basic maintenance tasks you can do, such as regularly changing the air filter, keeping the area around your outdoor unit clear of debris, and checking your thermostat settings to ensure they are correct, it’s best to leave the more technical and intricate work to trained professionals.
Regular maintenance is typically a requirement for keeping the manufacturer’s warranty valid. Skipping maintenance may result in your warranty being voided, and you may have to pay for any repairs out of pocket.
On average, a well-maintained air conditioning system can last anywhere between 10 and 15 years. However, of course, this can vary depending on usage, brand, and other factors. Regular upkeep can help extend the lifespan of your AC unit and keep it functioning efficiently for longer.
