Your Systems Runs Better, For Longer, With Regular AC Maintenance
Kansas City heat waves are no joke. When the mercury starts to climb and the asphalt starts to cook, you want to be sure that your air conditioning system is ready to go, capable of handling whatever crazy high temperature gets thrown its way. But if you think you can just ignore your air conditioner all year long and expect it to be ready to go when summer arrives, you're wrong.
Like any other major home appliance, your AC unit needs to be professionally serviced to ensure it's in the best shape it can be and well prepared to keep you cool and comfortable. That's why LBA Services provides robust air conditioning maintenance - comprehensive tune-ups that check out all aspects of your unit to be certain they are operating at peak efficiency and ensure your AC won't let you down when you need it most.
Air Conditioning Maintenance FAQs
Regular AC maintenance can prevent several common issues, including:
- Reduced cooling efficiency, which can lead to higher energy costs.
- Frequent breakdowns caused by worn-out or malfunctioning components.
- Poor air quality from dirty filters, which can aggravate allergies and respiratory issues.
- System leaks, either refrigerant or condensate, which can cause damage and reduce performance.
- Shortened lifespan of the unit due to ongoing stress and overwork.
- Unexpected costly repairs by catching and fixing small problems before they escalate.
It's recommended to have your AC serviced at least once a year, ideally during the spring before the hot weather begins. This annual maintenance helps ensure that your system operates efficiently, prevents unexpected breakdowns, and extends the lifespan of the unit. If you live in a hotter climate or use your AC year-round, consider servicing it twice a year. Additionally, routine tasks like changing or cleaning air filters should be done more frequently, about every one to three months, depending on usage and environmental factors.
Professional AC maintenance ensures your system runs efficiently and reliably. Here are the typical tasks included:
1. Inspecting and cleaning coils: Ensures efficient heat exchange.
2. Checking refrigerant levels: Prevents underperformance and damage.
3. Examining and tightening electrical connections: Ensures safety and reliability.
4. Lubricating moving parts: Reduces friction and wear.
5. Cleaning or replacing air filters: Maintains air quality and airflow.
6. Testing thermostat calibration: Ensures accurate temperature control.
7. Inspecting ductwork for leaks: Improves efficiency and air quality.
Cleaning an AC unit's coils is crucial for maintaining optimal performance and efficiency. Dirty coils reduce heat transfer, forcing the system to work harder and consume more energy. This leads to increased utility bills and premature wear on components. Clean coils improve air quality by preventing mold and bacteria growth. Regular cleaning extends the unit's lifespan, reduces the risk of breakdowns, and ensures consistent cooling. For evaporator coils, cleaning prevents clogged drain lines and water damage. Overall, clean coils contribute to better system efficiency, air quality, and longevity, while reducing operating costs.
What Are The Benefits Of Regular Air Conditioning Maintenance?
- Higher Efficiency - The harder your air conditioner has to work to keep your home cool, the more energy it burns through. That energy costs money. Ideally your unit will be tuned so perfectly that it only uses the minimum amount of energy necessary to achieve the cool temperatures you desire. Regular maintenance can make that possible.
- Minimum Repairs - As we work through our maintenance checklist, we have the opportunity to see if there are any nagging issues that could rear their head and turn into serious problems. Even better, we can fix them right then and there. This helps your unit to run better, and saves you expensive repair bills later on.
- Improved Lifespan - Your air conditioner is a major investment, and you want to make sure that you get every operational year out of it that you can. For that to happen, maintenance is key. Without regular service, an air conditioner that should last you 15 years may not even last you 10.
- Warranty Assistance - Virtually all air conditioning manufacturers require proof of regular maintenance anytime you have a warranty claim. When one of our expert technicians comes out and tunes up your unit, you'll get a detailed record of the work that's been done so you never have to worry about going to the manufacturer empty-handed.
