Air conditioning maintenance is one of the most important tasks to keep up with as a homeowner. By keeping up with the regular AC servicing, you’ll improve cooling performance, boost energy efficiency, and extend the lifespan of your system. While some AC maintenance tasks can be done yourself, it’s best to leave the in-depth care of your system to a Santa Clarita, CA HVAC professional, like the experts from Fleetwell. Keep reading to learn about the importance of AC maintenance, what to expect from an AC service appointment, and how to find HVAC services you can trust.
With our hot, arid summers, Santa Clarita homes need a reliable AC that’s ready to provide proper cooling all season long. AC upkeep ensures your system is ready for even the hottest temperatures by comprehensively cleaning the entire system, checking and adjusting moving parts, lubricating the mechanism, and generally ensuring it’s in good condition.
While the summer months are a perfect time for a day at Magic Mountain or down by the Santa Clara, sometimes you just need to be able to relax at home or sleep through the night without the worry of overheating. By working with a Santa Clarita HVAC professional for air conditioner maintenance, you get peace of mind knowing that your system has been expertly examined, repaired, and optimized, ensuring steady performance throughout the summer.
When you work with Fleetwell for a Santa Clarita AC tune-up, you can expect a complete service that addresses the entire system.
The AC maintenance visit begins with a comprehensive inspection of all the system’s components, ensuring nothing is broken, out of place, or at risk of wearing out.
Next, we thoroughly clean all moving parts. We also take this time to examine their function and make sure they’re working as intended.
We inspect all air filters in your system, cleaning them if needed or replacing them entirely for enhanced performance and efficiency.
We will take the time to look at all electrical connections in your AC system, double-checking that they are tightened and in good condition for safe operation.
We’ll examine and clear your condensate drain and drain line, checking for any signs of water leaks or clogs while we do it.
We can make a number of small adjustments to the system to improve cooling performance and boost energy efficiency.
We examine the refrigerant lines to make sure the levels and pressure are correct. We’ll also ensure there are no hazardous refrigerant leaks anywhere in the system.
We reset and recalibrate your thermostat to ensure it properly reflects the temperature of your home, and that it can communicate with your air conditioner properly when you set the desired indoor temperature.
We examine both the evaporator and condenser coils, ensuring they are completely clear of all dirt and debris to boost efficiency.
We inspect and tighten the fan blades in your air handler to make sure it’s ready to blow cooled air throughout your home as efficiently as possible.
These maintenance steps come together to help keep your air conditioner in the best possible condition, ensuring it’s ready to keep you cool for the warmer months ahead.
One of the most important benefits of regular AC upkeep is the effect on energy efficiency. When your system is unmaintained, it gets dirty, clogged, and ineffective. This means the system has to work harder to deliver the same cooling performance, resulting in higher and higher energy bills. By making a point to get your system inspected and maintained at least once a year (particularly the filters, coils, fins, and refrigerant lines), you’ll see much higher energy efficiency when running your air conditioner.
We’re proud to employ a team of highly skilled and experienced AC technicians in Santa Clarita, helping homeowners like you get the most out of their air conditioners with as little stress as possible. In addition to our trusted maintenance services, we also offer AC installation and HVAC repair, ensuring you always have options if you’re facing a system shutdown, outdated air conditioner, or other related home cooling problems.
In general, we recommend scheduling AC maintenance appointments at least once a year, ideally in spring, right before the summer season. By keeping up with an annual maintenance schedule, your system stays clean and in good working order. This reduces the risk of an unmaintained air conditioner causing skyrocketing energy bills, noisy operation, or even a complete system shutdown when you need it most.
Because annual tune-ups are so essential for proper AC operation, many people opt to join membership programs like the one we offer at Fleetwell. This not only helps you get maintenance when you need it, but also gives you access to other benefits, such as priority scheduling, discounted service rates, and more.
