With any piece of machinery, there’s regular maintenance that must be done to keep it running at optimal levels. Just as you would take your car in for its scheduled servicing, your air conditioner needs consistent love and care to keep your home in the Metro East cool all summer long. C&K Heating & Cooling, Inc., your local HVAC maintenance professional, has years of experience with air conditioner servicing and knows the best time of year to schedule AC maintenance.
Clean Your AC With the Rest of the House
With spring just around the corner, many of us are anticipating a marathon of decluttering during spring cleaning. To ride the wave of renewal spring brings, AC maintenance is also best done right after winter comes to an end. Even if you’ve had HVAC services done from a Metro East team, it may not have covered air conditioner maintenance as most systems remain dormant during the colder months.
For proper air conditioning maintenance, you’ll want to go withC&K Heating & Cooling, Inc. to ensure your climate control is ready for the upcoming heat. One reason you want to wait until spring to do this is that air conditioning isn’t needed in the winter and attempting to run an AC at too low of a temperature can damage it.
Summer May Be Too Late
Trying to schedule HVAC or specifically AC repairs during the summer can prove to be a challenge as this is peak time for old or malfunctioning units to break down. Scheduling air conditioning maintenance with C&K Heating & Cooling, Inc. earlier in the year will get your cooling system ready for even the hottest days.
Another factor is that as a home’s internal temperature increases, other appliances that require temperature regulation such as refrigerators and freezers will also have to work harder. The longer an air conditioner goes without maintenance, the more likely it is to break down under a heavy workload.
Air Conditioner Cleaning Is a Recurring Task
Depending on where you are in the Metro East area, your air conditioner may only need annual maintenance and cleaning to function its best. Clean AC units will also be more energy-efficient as buildup can cause the entire system to struggle. The extra wear and tear from units operating through debris can lead to shorter lifespans on the components within.
C&K Heating & Cooling, Inc. can help you determine how often you’ll need to schedule AC cleaning based on the unit you have, the amount of space needing to be cooled, and the desired temperature. Regular HVAC maintenance tends to take no longer than 1-2 hours before our team is on their way and you’re back to enjoying a comfortable home.
When you’re ready to start planning for your HVAC needs, trust the team local to the Metro East area. Our insights into what is required from a cooling system to handle the summer heat mean we can work around your schedule and budget. Call us for a free consultation today at 618.537.8888.
