As the days get longer and warmer, it’s time to prepare the HVAC system to keep you cool all summer long. Before it gets too hot, you should have an air conditioning contractor service the system. Here is a brief guide to the process and what to expect once you schedule an appointment. 

What to Expect

The air conditioning contractor will clean the system, inspect it, and replace any parts. They will bring a spare air filter and may tell you to replace it with a fresh one every month during the summer. They’ll clean the condenser coils, evaporator, and the fins, which have likely gathered up dust and other debris since the last service. If there is any debris gathered around the unit, they will clear that out for optimal air flow. They will check the unit for leaks or damage and make recommendations for any necessary AC repair.

Why It’s Important

The air conditioner needs air to flow freely through it, and clogged filters or fins will lessen its efficiency. As a result, the system must work harder, which leads to more energy usage and breakdowns. A professional can also find potential problems and fix them before they cause major issues with the unit.
