How often do air conditioners need maintenance?
We recommend twice a year. For many other regions in the U.S., air conditioners only need regular maintenance once a year or so—but in Green Valley, the intense desert heat puts extra pressure on our air conditioners. With temperatures reaching into the 100s, Nevada summers force our air conditioners to work harder to keep our houses cool. This causes little signs of wear and tear to develop quicker. If these signs aren’t caught in time they can quickly lead to larger problems—even a total breakdown.
During our regular maintenance calls we:
- Inspect and calibrate the thermostat.
- Inspect and lubricate moving parts as needed.
- Inspect blower assembly.
- Check wires for rust, corrosion, and disconnection.
- Clean or change air filters.
No HVAC system is the same. Each one has to provide adequate air to very different living spaces. But our expert service technicians have the training to know where to look for the signs of wear and tear in any air conditioning system.
What happens without regular maintenance?
Any major household system requires maintenance, and if it doesn’t get done, it will end up resulting in costly repairs—or even needing to replace the system much earlier than would otherwise be necessary. AC systems are no different. And even small issues, like an air filter not getting changed often enough, can put strain on the system and lead to excess wear and tear.
Without regular maintenance, an air conditioner can suffer from:
- Dirt on the condenser causes loss of efficiency
- Blocked airflow which overworks the unit
- Noises, shrieking and damaged parts
- Refrigerant loss
- Leaking air ducts which cause your energy bills to spike
Regular maintenance isn’t a guarantee against these issues, but you can expect to pay more over time with a poorly maintained air conditioner. By catching these small issues early, our expert technicians prevent the need for major repairs in the future and make sure your air conditioner runs at its best, saving you money on your next energy bill.
Is there any AC maintenance I can do myself?
Absolutely. There are several simple steps any homeowner can take to save money and avoid the need for air conditioning repairs. To make sure your air conditioner runs at its best, try these simple DIY maintenance steps:
Change air filters.
Every 3-6 months, air filters should be changed to allow for proper airflow and air quality. This eases some of the burden off your AC by making sure it doesn’t work hard pumping air through your house.
Keep air vents clear.
Making sure air vents are clear of objects and not blocked by furniture also helps keep the air flowing well throughout your house, saving you on energy bills and future repairs.
Set AC to a timer.
Setting your air conditioner to a timer will help save energy and keep your air conditioner from running when it doesn’t need to. Try setting your thermostat to a timer to keep your home cool when you’re home and save energy when you’re out.
Of course, these steps only help prevent your air conditioner from wearing down too quickly. Regular maintenance from HVAC experts is needed to identify hard-to-see signs of wear and tear that indicate larger problems in the future. But if you make life easier on your air conditioner, it’ll make life easier for you. Keeping air filters clean and making sure it only runs when you need it to will keep your air conditioner running for years to come.
