Our locally owned company has built its reputation on providing comprehensive maintenance services that extend the life of your cooling equipment while keeping your energy costs manageable.
When temperatures soar above 110 degrees, the last thing you want is an unexpected AC failure. That’s why we’ve developed maintenance protocols that go beyond basic filter changes and cursory inspections. Our experienced technicians, each with at least 15 years in the field, perform thorough system evaluations that identify potential issues before they become costly emergencies. We do it the right way, not the easy way, because we believe in the triple win philosophy where our customers receive exceptional service, our technicians are properly compensated for their expertise, and our company maintains sustainable operations.
Comprehensive Central AC Maintenance Process
Our central AC maintenance approach involves multiple inspection points and cleaning procedures that many companies overlook. We begin by examining your thermostat calibration and electrical connections, ensuring proper voltage and amperage readings throughout the system. Your condensate drain receives special attention, as clogs here can lead to water damage and system shutdowns. We inspect and tighten all electrical connections, lubricate moving parts to reduce friction and wear, and check refrigerant levels to ensure optimal cooling capacity.
The coil cleaning process deserves particular emphasis because dirty coils significantly impact your system’s efficiency. We clean the coils the right way, not the easy way, using specialized cleaning solutions and techniques that remove accumulated dirt, dust, and debris without damaging the delicate aluminum fins. This meticulous approach can improve your system’s efficiency by up to 30%, translating to substantial energy savings throughout Paradise Valley’s long cooling season. Our technicians also straighten bent fins, check the condensing unit’s level and stability, and ensure proper airflow around outdoor equipment.
AC Tune Up Benefits and Timing
Scheduling your AC tune up before the intense heat arrives provides numerous advantages for Paradise Valley homeowners. Early spring maintenance allows us to identify and address issues when HVAC parts are readily available and our schedule permits immediate repairs. During a tune up, we perform essential tasks including:
- Refrigerant pressure testing: ensures your system maintains proper cooling capacity without overworking the compressor
- Belt and pulley inspection: prevents unexpected breakdowns from worn components
- Control system verification: confirms proper cycling and temperature regulation
- Safety control testing: protects your equipment and home from potential hazards
- Ductwork assessment: identifies leaks that waste cooled air and increase utility bills
Regular tune ups typically reduce cooling costs by 15-25% while preventing approximately 85% of common AC breakdowns. For Paradise Valley’s demanding climate, where air conditioners run continuously for months, these savings and reliability improvements prove invaluable.
Air Conditioner Maintenance Plans and Warranty Protection
We offer comprehensive maintenance plans designed to protect your investment while ensuring consistent comfort. Our plans include priority service, meaning you receive 24 hour emergency response when issues arise. Perhaps most importantly, customers on our maintenance plans qualify for our lifetime warranty coverage, providing unprecedented peace of mind for your cooling system investment.
