As warmer weather begins, you might be wondering, is an AC tune-up worth it in Albuquerque? Especially if your air conditioning unit is newer or was running well last season.

Here’s one way to look at it. You wouldn’t buy a brand-new automobile and never expect to request any work for it, such as putting in fresh oil or putting on new tires.

The same applies for your air conditioner. It’s equipment that consumes fuel and has moving pieces. Like a automobile, it can get leaks and its moving components can wear out.

Having your system checked yearly by a I-Deal HVAC professional can help spot minor issues before they turn into large breakdowns. (And cause your AC to stop running!)

Six Reasons to Tune Up Your AC in the Spring

  1. It keeps your system clean. Since your AC is installed outdoors, it’s more prone to having a buildup of dirt, leaves and other yard clippings, which can greatly affect your system’s efficiency. While you can use our how to clean your AC guide, we recommend calling a pro to service delicate internal pieces.
  2. It keeps your system efficient. Dirt and yard debris that accumulate within your equipment can make it work harder and restrict airflow. Both these problems can cause higher energy use—and a bigger cooling bill!
  3. It could prolong your system’s life span. A clean unit is an efficient one and could even help it work for a longer period of time. That’s money that you’ll keep on your monthly cooling costs and over the years, as you won’t have to install new equipment as fast.
  4. It helps find little problems before they turn into big, expensive problems. During professional AC maintenance, your technician will closely examine pieces and complete a set of AC performance checks. These detailed procedures often allow us to find issues before they turn into big issues that result in an expensive repair bill.
  5. It helps ensure worry-free cooling throughout the season. After your unit is serviced, you’ll have peace of mind being aware your system is ready to provide worry-free air. Even on the most humid days. It’s one of the best methods to keep your air conditioner from failing.
  6. It keeps your warranty in place. Most manufacturers call for regular maintenance to keep your warranty in place. Without this service, your unit is open to advanced breakdowns and limited efficiency.
