As spring begins, you might be wondering, is an AC tune-up worth it in West Valley City? Even if your AC equipment is up-to-date or was running well last year.

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

The same affects your air conditioning. It’s equipment that consumes fuel and has moving pieces. Like a car, it can get leaks and its moving pieces can wear out.

Having your unit checked yearly by a Select Comfort Systems specialist can help spot minor issues before they turn into large malfunctions. (And cause your AC to stop operating!)

Six Reasons to Tune Up Your AC in the Spring

  1. It keeps your equipment clean. Since your cooling system is installed outdoors, it’s more prone to having a buildup of dirt, leaves and other yard debris, which can greatly affect your system’s efficiency. While you can use our how to clean your AC guide, we recommend calling a professional to service complicated internal pieces.
  2. It keeps your AC efficient. Dirt and yard refuse that accumulate in your unit can make it work harder and decrease airflow. Both these problems can cause higher energy needs—and a bigger utility bill!
  3. It could extend your system’s life span. A clean AC is an efficient one and may even help it work for a longer period of time. That’s money that you’ll keep on your monthly electricity costs and over the years, since you won’t have to replace your equipment as quickly.
  4. It helps pinpoint little problems before they turn into big, costly problems. During professional AC maintenance, your technician will keenly examine parts and complete a series of air conditioning performance checks. These all-inclusive procedures often allow us to identify problems before they turn into extensive troubles that result in an expensive repair bill.
  5. It helps ensure worry-free operation throughout the season. After your air conditioner is serviced, you’ll have peace of mind realizing your system is ready to deliver worry-free air. Even on the hottest days. It’s one of the best methods to keep your air conditioner from failing.
  6. It keeps your warranty valid. Most manufacturers require regular maintenance to keep your warranty going. Without this maintenance, your unit is open to early breakdowns and lowered efficiency.
