Now that spring is upon us, it will soon be time to crank up your air conditioning unit in anticipation of the rising temperatures. Before you do, ensure your system is functioning in optimal condition. Below is an overview of HVAC tuneups and why you should schedule yours before summer arrives.

What is an HVAC Tuneup?

Regular maintenance checks for issues that might require repair, improving the overall efficiency and performance of your air conditioning unit. During a visit, the technician will inspect and clean internal components, tighten electrical connections, and lubricate the moving parts. They will also test the thermostat and inspect the ductwork. 

Regular Maintenance Provides Better Performance

Without routine upkeep, your air conditioning unit will be more susceptible to wear and tear, losing efficiency over time. Not only does neglect shorten the lifespan of your system, but it also increases your monthly utility bills and leads to further repair costs. Scheduling a tuneup will ensure your system runs at peak performance all season long.

When Should You Schedule a Tuneup?

It’s best to schedule service before you’ll need your HVAC system the most. For instance, call for an inspection of your air conditioning unit in the spring before the heat arrives in full force. Near the end of summer, as cool, autumn weather approaches, schedule maintenance for your furnace.
