An A/C Tune-Up Could Save You Thousands

Spring is in the air! Temperatures are climbing straight up through the 50s and up into the 60s, and it’ll soon be time to break out your swimsuits and kick on the central A/C. Before the cooling season officially begins, get your air conditioning maintenance check-up and make sure you aren’t stuck sweating with a broken A/C on a hot summer day. Although you only use your air conditioning system a few months out of the year, it is getting exposed to the elements year-round. The summer sun, insects, dirt, debris, and mold can damage your system, and if you do not get it checked annually, you run the risk of damaging it permanently. Scheduling your tune-up could save you thousands of dollars in energy bills and repair costs. Sign up for a Harris Comfort service plan today and your annual tune-up is included!
