Proactive Performance Reporting
After each visit, you receive a clear summary of your system’s condition with recommendations for improvements or early warning signs—helping you avoid emergencies.
Signs It’s Time for an AC Maintenance Visit:
Uneven cooling or persistent hot spots
If some areas of your building are consistently warmer than others, it could point to airflow imbalances, ductwork issues, or a failing blower motor. These inconsistencies can reduce comfort and signal deeper system inefficiencies.
Loud startup noises or frequent cycling
Unusual sounds like banging or rattling during startup—or frequent cycling on and off—can indicate electrical issues, failing capacitors, or problems with the compressor. These signs should be addressed quickly to prevent larger breakdowns.
Increased energy bills despite normal use
A sudden spike in energy costs—without changes in thermostat settings or usage—often means your system is working harder than it should. This could be caused by dirty coils, a clogged filter, or worn-out components reducing efficiency.
Indoor air feels humid or stale
If your AC isn’t removing moisture properly, it could point to dirty evaporator coils, or a malfunctioning dehumidification process. Poor humidity control can lead to mold growth and reduced indoor air quality.
System takes longer to reach set temperatures
When your AC struggles to cool the space efficiently, it could be due to refrigerant leaks, poor airflow, or an aging system that can’t keep up. This lag in performance often leads to increased wear and higher energy use.
It’s been over a year since your last maintenance check
Even if your system seems to be working fine, skipping annual maintenance can allow minor issues to go unnoticed until they become costly problems. Preventive care keeps your system efficient, compliant, and reliable.
