In summer, your AC keeps you and your home cool. Whether you have a central AC, split AC or window AC, have a professional inspect and maintain the unit bi-annually. Regular professional AC maintenance, Kennesaw addresses current problems and prevents potential issues, keeping your AC in good working order. Well maintained AC systems are more efficient and reliable than poorly maintained units and therefore, cost less to run.
Your contractor starts by visually inspecting your indoor and outdoor unit and AC components for signs of damage. Electrical components and connections that have come loose are tightened. Your contractor also looks for frayed wiring.
Your contractor’s crew removes debris and dust accumulated on AC components including the condenser and evaporator coils. Supply registers, return vents, condensate pump (if you have one), and condenser coil are thoroughly cleaned.
AC filters trap contaminants in the air. Over time, they become clogged. Clogged filters are less efficient and may fail to trap airborne particles. For this reason, they should be replaced every 60-90 days. Depending on the condition of your filters, your contractor’s team either cleans or replaces them.
Too much or too little refrigerant can affect your system’s performance and reduce its lifespan. Your contractor checks the refrigerant level to ensure it is within the appropriate range (according to manufacturer’s specifications) and tops up if necessary.
All limit and safety controls, the suction line insulation, compressor, fan motor and blower motor amp draw, and the static pressure is tested. Also, capacitors and connectors are inspected for rust and corrosion and tested as necessary.
All moving AC components are lubricated to reduce friction between them. Lubricating AC parts is a great way to reduce wear and tear on them.
Your contractor’s crew checks the thermostat and calibrates it (if necessary) to ensure that the device reads home temperature accurately.
A clogged condensate drain line is a recipe for disaster. It can lead to water damage to your home. Your contractor’s team thoroughly cleans the drain line by flushing it with a cleaning solution.
Leaky ductwork can allow up to 25% of conditioned air to escape. As a result, your unit may be forced to work harder and longer. An overworked AC uses more electricity and may not last as long as expected. During an AC service, your contractor’s team inspects the ductwork for any signs of damage and leaks and addresses any problems promptly to keep your AC working at its peak efficiency.
After performing all maintenance tasks, your contractor runs the system to ensure it is working properly. They watch out for weird noises and check how the system responds to the thermostat’s instructions.
The contractor creates a report summarizing the maintenance tasks performed and issues found. They also share a list of maintenance tasks with you that you can perform to keep the system in good working order.
Both you and your contractor are responsible for maintaining your AC. Between professional maintenance sessions, perform these AC maintenance tasks to keep your AC healthy.
