Routine A/C Maintenance: Why Is It So Important?

People sometimes ask us, “is a tune-up for my air conditioner really necessary every year?”

Our answer is always the same: YES!

An air conditioning system is a major investment for you as a Vermont homeowner, and like any investment, it needs to be protected. The best way to do that is to have professional cooling maintenance performed on your equipment every year.

Four important reasons to give your A/C a little TLC each spring or fall:

• Greater reliability – About four out of the five air conditioning repairs are preventable; proper care will help you avoid inconvenient equipment breakdowns, and the potentially costly heating and air conditioning repairs that come with them.
• Lower bills – A well-maintained heating or cooling system runs more efficiently, so you’ll save on your utility bills – often enough over the course of a single cooling season to pay for your annual tune-up.
• Longer-lasting equipment – Replacing neglected heating and cooling equipment earlier than expected can be a drag – and a costly one, at that. Regular maintenance can add years to the life of your air conditioner, furnace, or boiler.
• Better air quality – A well-maintained A/C system helps control humidity in your home, keeping air healthy and helping to prevent mold problems.
