In order for your air conditioner system to have a longer life span, it’s crucial that you get your system serviced regularly. With proper AC maintenance, you can always rely on your ac to function as intended, especially during the hot summer months in Florida. Not only does regular maintenance increase the life of your system, it can also save you from an unnecessarily early and costly replacement of your hvac unit.
Unfortunately, many home owners don’t have preventative maintenance done, even periodically. As a result, most end up calling an ac repair contractor when there is an ac emergency or problem. Only to discover other issues that could have been prevented or fixed earlier with regular checkups.
Thus, ending up with costly mistakes, like having to replace an entire air conditioning unit earlier than they should. Or spend a lot more money fixing stuff that could have been prevented or avoided with cheaper, regular ac maintenance.
Benefits of Regular AC Maintenance
There are many reasons for regular servicing and maintenance of your heating and cooling systems, like:
Lower Power Bill
We find that air cooling systems that are not regularly maintained, use more electricity than ac systems that are properly maintained. This leads to higher energy costs especially during the summers months, which means more money out of your pocket. There is an old saying that is apt for this: an ounce of prevention is worth much more than a pound of cure.
Better cooling
An air conditioning unit, as part of a home’s central heating and cooling system, works by removing heat from the air inside, and transferring it outside. The cool air is then blown back into the house and circulated through air ducts. This process is repeated until your home is cooled down to your desired temperature as set on a thermostat. Scheduled ac maintenance keeps your ac unit working more efficiently in cooling your house.
Improved Indoor Air Quality
We mostly think of air pollution as being just outdoors, but the air inside our homes and buildings can also become polluted, and indoor air pollution can become a health issue if your hvac system is not properly maintained. Changing your air filter frequently, duct cleaning if necessary, cleaning the heating and cooling coils, condensate drain pans or drip pans, and other ac components, helps ensure that you keep common indoor air pollutants, allergens, and other impurities at a minimum.
You would be surprised to learn what’s actually polluting your air indoors. So by maintaining your heating and cooling system, you are actually protecting and promoting the health of your family.
Longer Lifespan & Peace of Mind
With proper care and maintenance you are guaranteed to enjoy your air conditioner working for you for a long time. Along with piece of mind that everything is functioning properly as it should.
Fewer repairs
As you would expect, when vital parts in your air cooling system are properly maintained, there’s a much lower risk of failure and thus fewer repairs. Simply changing your ac filter frequently and getting preventative semi-annual maintenance service performed should be enough to prevent breakdowns. In Florida we have hot summers and we cannot survive without our air conditioners.
So with continuous use, your ac systems at some point may need repair just like any other machine. But with frequent checkups, that means fewer emergencies and ac repairs.
Summary
An air conditioner that’s not well maintained can cost you more money every month, as it would work harder than normal to cool down your house. Not only that but ac repairs and replacement are a lot more costly than maintenance.
