Why You Should Schedule an AC Tune-Up Before Spring
As winter is almost over and the warmer days of spring start rolling into Clifton Park, many homeowners are eager to turn on their air conditioning for the first time. But before you crank up the cool air, there’s one crucial step you shouldn’t skip—an AC tune-up.
At Field Industries, we see it every year: homeowners wait until the first heatwave to turn on their AC, only to find that it’s not working properly—or worse, not working at all. Scheduling a spring AC tune-up can prevent breakdowns, improve efficiency, and save you money in the long run. It is recommended that you get your AC unit tuned up at least once a year! Here’s why it’s so important.
1. Prevent Costly Breakdowns
During the colder months, your air conditioner sits unused, collecting dust and potentially developing minor issues that can turn into major problems once you turn it on. Especially if it was hit by any icicles over the winter months. A professional AC tune-up catches these small issues before they result in expensive emergency repairs.
2. Improve Energy Efficiency (and Lower Your Bills!)
A neglected AC system has to work harder to cool your home, leading to higher energy bills. A preseason tune-up ensures that everything is running smoothly—clean filters, proper refrigerant levels, and efficient airflow—so you can enjoy cool air without skyrocketing costs.
3. Extend the Life of Your AC Unit
Regular maintenance can add years to your AC’s lifespan saving you lots of money in the long run. Just like a car needs routine oil changes, your HVAC system needs tune-ups to keep it running efficiently. A well-maintained system lasts longer and delays the need for costly replacements.
4. Better Indoor Air Quality for Allergy Season
Spring in the Capital Region means pollen and allergens everywhere. If your AC’s filter and coils are dirty, they’ll blow dust, mold, and allergens into your home, making allergy symptoms even worse. A tune-up can include a filter replacement and coil cleaning to help keep your indoor air fresh and breathable.
5. Avoid the Spring and Summer Rush
Once the first hot day arrives, HVAC companies in Clifton Park get flooded with calls for AC repairs. You do not want this to be you. Stay prepared and get ahead by scheduling your tune up in March or April! By scheduling your AC tune-up early, you can skip the wait and ensure your system is ready before you actually need it.
