If you’ve ever considered doing your own air conditioner maintenance to save money, it’s not as uncommon as you might think. While it’s attractive, trying to tune up your own air conditioner provides the potential for bigger expenses and errors. Your air conditioner is more complicated than you might think. Even if DIY isn’t your thing, you might be thinking about skipping your annual appointment to save some cash. That could also lead to more expensive results. Sure, your unit worked perfectly last year, but things change.

Whether you’re considering doing maintenance yourself or skipping it altogether, check out the benefits of hiring a professional to check out your machine before you make a decision you could regret:

  • Technicians have the right training: While you can learn a lot about your home’s system through your owner’s guide and the internet, it’s not going to have the same impact as the education an expert gets from certified institutions. Following their education, our technicians at Clean Air HVAC are experts in all things HVAC. It’s smarter to have the work done correctly rather than having to face other challenges down the road.
  • Technician tune-ups are more comprehensive: During a maintenance appointment, an HVAC technician checks to make sure everything about your system is in working order. They’ll assess your thermostat settings, refrigerant level, electrical and moving components and your system controls. They are also able to recognize any symptoms of potential issues.
  • You can see cost-savings after a professional tune-up: You might not be able to recognize the early signs of a problem with your air conditioning. Continuing to run your system could cause serious damage that means you’ll need a costly repair or replacement down the road. The professionals at Clean Air HVAC can recognize issues before they become too serious—eliminating extra costs to you. Proper maintenance keeps your system running efficiently and helps keep those utility bills lower.
