What's Included in an Air Conditioner Tune-Up?

Our comprehensive air conditioner maintenance visit covers everything your system needs to run efficiently and reliably:

Inspect and clean the evaporator and condenser coils — Dirty coils force your system to work harder and consume more energy.

Check refrigerant levels — Low refrigerant reduces cooling capacity and can damage the compressor over time.

Inspect and tighten electrical connections — Loose connections are a safety hazard and can cause system failures.

Test capacitors and contactors — These components fail frequently and are often the cause of sudden breakdowns.

Lubricate moving parts — Reduces friction and wear on motors and fan assemblies.

Clear the condensate drain line — A clogged drain can cause water damage and humidity problems.

Inspect the air filter — We check the current filter and advise on replacement if needed.

Test thermostat calibration — Ensures your system is responding accurately to temperature settings.

Check airflow and duct connections — Poor airflow reduces efficiency and comfort throughout your home.

Measure system performance — We assess cooling output and overall system health before we leave.

After every visit, we'll give you a full report on your system's condition and flag anything that may need attention down the road.

How Often Should You Service Your Air Conditioner?

Once a year — ideally in the spring before the cooling season begins.

Annual maintenance keeps your warranty valid with most manufacturers, helps your system run at peak efficiency, and gives you peace of mind heading into summer.If your system is older or runs heavily during Rochester's humid summers, a mid-season check can also be worthwhile.

Here's what consistent maintenance does for you:

Prevents breakdowns — Most air conditioner failures are predictable and preventable. Maintenance catches problems before they become emergencies.

Extends the life of your system — Regular maintenance can add years to the lifespan of your air conditioner, delaying a costly replacement.

Keeps your warranty valid — Many manufacturers require documented annual maintenance to honor warranty claims.

Improves air quality — Clean coils and a clear drain line mean less mold, dust, and allergens circulating through your home.

Peace of mind — Know your system is ready before the hottest days of the year hit.

How Much Does Air Conditioner Maintenance Cost
