As spring starts, you might be thinking, is an AC tune-up worth it in Mason City? Even if your air conditioning unit is recently purchased or was running good last season.

Here’s one approach to look at it. You wouldn’t get a brand-new vehicle and never expect to request any maintenance for it, such as putting in fresh oil or purchasing new tires.

The same applies for your AC. It’s equipment that uses fuel and has moving components. Like a automobile, it can get leaks and its moving parts can malfunction.

Having your system checked seasonally by a Mechanical Air Systems Co expert can help spot small issues before they lead to large malfunctions. (And cause your AC to stop working!)

Six Reasons to Tune Up Your AC in the Spring

  1. It keeps your equipment clean. Since your cooling system is placed outdoors, it’s more prone to having a buildup of dirt, leaves and other yard refuse, which can greatly affect your system’s efficiency. While you can try our how to clean your AC guide, we recommend calling a professional to service complicated internal pieces.
  2. It keeps your system efficient. Dirt and yard debris that accumulate in your unit can make it work harder and restrict airflow. Both these troubles can cause higher energy use—and a more expensive cooling bill!
  3. It could lengthen your unit’s life span. A clean unit is an efficient one and may even help it last for a longer period of time. That’s money that you’ll save on your monthly energy costs and over the years, because you won’t have to buy new equipment as fast.
  4. It helps pinpoint little issues before they turn into big, expensive problems. During professional AC maintenance, your tech will closely examine components and complete a cycle of AC performance tests. These in-depth procedures often allow us to locate problems before they turn into large problems that result in a pricey repair bill.
  5. It helps guarantee worry-free operation throughout the summer. After your unit is serviced, you’ll have peace of mind realizing your unit is ready to provide worry-free comfort. Even on the hottest days. It’s one of the wisest methods to keep your air conditioner from failing.
  6. It keeps your warranty in place. Most manufacturers expect regular maintenance to keep your warranty in place. Without this tune-up, your equipment is open to premature breakdowns and limited efficiency.
