How AC Maintenance Reduces AC Repairs

Monday, April 17th, 2023

When it comes to AC maintenance, it shouldn’t be much of a surprise to learn that getting it done can lead to a substantial reduction in repairs and breakdowns. Just like a car, it makes sense that complex machines that aren’t regularly maintained are more likely to suffer from poor performance.

In fact, roughly 70-80% of the repairs and breakdowns we see are for air conditioners that haven’t received regular annual maintenance. It may seem counterintuitive that we’re advising you to get maintenance so we’ll see you less often for AC repair in Orlando, FL. But that’s what we’d prefer to happen with our local homeowners.

There are two kinds of maintenance: the things you can do yourself as a homeowner and the things we’ll do on a routine maintenance visit. Let’s go over these now.

How a Dirty Filter Leads to AC Repairs

Monday, August 22nd, 2022

There are many different parts of your air conditioner that play important roles in helping it to get your home cooled off. But there is probably no part that is more underestimated in importance than the air filter.

Regular filter changes can end up helping you avoid the need for expensive AC repair in Spring Hill, FL. Leaving an overly dirty filter in place on the other hand can make repair worse. Here’s what you need to know.

The Problems a Dirty Filter Can Cause

Monday, October 19th, 2020

Chances are that you have a free-standing fan or two around your home. These are great for keeping air circulating in your home when it isn’t quite hot enough to justify using the AC system. If you have used fans in the past, there is also a chance that you have seen the impact that a build-up of dirt can have on this machine–reduced airflow being the main consequence.

The question we have for you is this: If a build-up of debris in your fan can create a noticeable impact on your comfort, what do you think a dirty filter can do to the airflow going in and out of your air conditioner? It isn’t a stretch to say it wouldn’t have a positive impact. But did you know a dirty filter can actually create the need for an AC repair in Clearwater, FL?
