How Often Should You Service Your Air Conditioner?
Your air conditioner has been waiting patiently for its summer debut since you said goodbye to it in the fall. Regular maintenance is important to ensure your AC is ready to tackle another hot Pennsylvania summer and avoid costly repairs later down the line. But the question is – how often should you have your air conditioner serviced?
The experts at Harris Comfort recommend getting your air conditioner serviced at least once a year, ideally in the spring before the peak cooling season, so now is a great time to schedule a tune-up. Here’s what our technicians do during your AC tune-ups:
- Replace your air filters: Dirty air filters can worsen your home’s air quality and decrease the efficiency of your cooling system. We recommend checking your filter at least once a month, and replacing it as needed.
- Check your evaporator coil: Your evaporator coil is in charge of cooling the refrigerant in your air conditioner, which is a chemical that cools warm air. We will clear out any debris surrounding it to prevent it from breaking down and bringing hot air into your home.
- Check for refrigerant leaks: We’ll check your indoor and outdoor condenser coils for any leaks that could compromise your safety and home comfort!
- And more!
In addition to an AC tune-up, you can also schedule a duct cleaning from Harris Comfort! If you’re a central air customer, having your ducts cleaned is essential for your system’s efficiency and your home’s air quality.
