As warmer weather begins, you could be wondering, is an AC tune-up worth it in McKinney and Frisco? Even if your cooling unit is recently installed or was running good last season.

Here’s one method to look at it. You wouldn’t purchase a brand-new car and never expect to request any service for it, such as putting in fresh oil or purchasing new tires.

The same applies for your air conditioner. It’s equipment that consumes fuel and has moving components. Like a automobile, it can get leaks and its moving pieces can wear out.

Having your equipment checked annually by a Bell Mechanical Services specialist can help spot little issues before they lead to large breakdowns. (And cause your equipment to stop working!)

Six Reasons to Tune Up Your AC in the Spring

  1. It keeps your unit clean. Since your air conditioner is placed outdoors, it’s more inclined to having a buildup of dirt, leaves and other yard clippings, which can greatly affect your system’s efficiency. While you can use our how to clean your AC guide, we recommend calling a specialist to service complicated internal parts.
  2. It keeps your equipment efficient. Dirt and yard refuse that accumulate in your system can make it work harder and lower airflow. Both these troubles can create higher energy needs—and a higher cooling bill!
  3. It could lengthen your equipment’s life span. A clean unit is an efficient one and could even help it work for a longer period of time. That’s money that you won’t spend on your monthly electricity costs and over the years, as you won’t have to replace your equipment as quickly.
  4. It helps pinpoint little issues before they lead to big, expensive problems. During professional AC maintenance, your specialist will keenly examine pieces and complete a cycle of air conditioning performance checks. These all-inclusive procedures often allow us to locate problems before they turn into major issues that result in a pricey repair bill.
  5. It helps ensure worry-free cooling throughout the summer. After your unit is serviced, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your unit is ready to give worry-free cooling. Even on the warmest days. It’s one of the wisest methods to keep your air conditioner from failing.
  6. It keeps your warranty going. Most manufacturers call for regular maintenance to keep your warranty in place. Without this tune-up, your unit is open to early breakdowns and lowered efficiency.
