How Often Should I Schedule AC Maintenance?

It’s recommended to schedule professional AC maintenance at least once a year, ideally in the spring before peak cooling season. Regular maintenance helps keep your system running efficiently, prevents breakdowns, and extends its lifespan. If you have an older unit or use your AC frequently, additional check-ups may be beneficial.

What Happens During a Routine AC Maintenance Visit?

During a maintenance visit, a technician will inspect, clean, and tune up key components of your air conditioning system. This includes checking refrigerant levels, cleaning coils, tightening electrical connections, and testing system performance. These steps ensure your AC runs efficiently and helps prevent future issues.

Can AC Maintenance Improve My Indoor Air Quality?

Yes, regular AC maintenance helps improve indoor air quality by keeping your system clean and free of dust, mold, and debris. Changing air filters and cleaning coils reduces allergens and pollutants circulating in your home. A well-maintained system also helps control humidity, which can prevent mold growth.

Will AC Maintenance Help Lower My Energy Bills?

Absolutely! A well-maintained air conditioning system operates more efficiently, using less energy to cool your home. Cleaning coils, checking refrigerant levels, and replacing filters all contribute to lower utility costs and better overall performance.

What Are the Risks of Skipping AC Maintenance?

Skipping maintenance can lead to reduced efficiency, higher energy bills, and unexpected system failures. Dirty coils, clogged filters, and worn-out components can put strain on your AC, leading to costly repairs or early system failure. Routine maintenance helps prevent these issues and ensures your unit lasts longer.

How Do I Know If My AC Needs a Tune-Up?

If your AC is taking longer to cool your home, making strange noises, or causing a spike in energy bills, it’s time for a tune-up. Weak airflow, uneven cooling, and unusual odors can also indicate a system in need of maintenance. Regular inspections help catch these issues before they turn into major problems.

Can I Perform AC Maintenance Myself?

While homeowners can handle simple tasks like changing filters and keeping the area around the unit clear, professional maintenance is still necessary. A technician has the tools and expertise to clean internal components, check refrigerant levels, and inspect electrical connections safely. Annual professional tune-ups ensure your system runs at peak efficiency.

Does Regular Maintenance Extend the Life of My AC System?

Yes! Regular maintenance helps prevent wear and tear by keeping components clean and operating efficiently. A well-maintained AC system can last 15-20 years, while neglected units often require premature replacement.

Roy's came out to do our heating and cooling yearly service. The technician found a crake in the heat exchange and it needed to be fixed or replaced on a 13 year old furnace. Matt suggested a new system. He called the office and a salesman, Robert Nolan came out and explained multiple options we had. We decided on a new furnace and airconditioner. We decided on option 2 he showed us. Because of our schedule the new system could not be installed for 3 days and Robert left us a stand alone heater if we needed it. The installers arrived on time and installed both systems by the end of the day. They put down covering in our hall and on the stairs down to the cellar. They cleaned up everything before they left and explained how to do a monthly cleaning of the furnace and how the new thermostat worked prior to leaving. We wouldn't have any other company but Roy's take care of our heating/cooling/electric & plumbing. They are wonderful!

Professional experience from original call, to first appointment, assessment of my issue, and strategizing ALL my options. They took a stressful situation and immediately de-escalated my stress level and walked me through each of their recommendations. On the day the job was to be executed I experienced a thorough and efficient crew that made me confident they knew exactly what they were doing. There were multiple guys at my job and I wish I could remember everyone’s name because they were all great. I will highlight that my Sr. Plumbing Tech Dan Stewart and his Tech Tony Robinson were amazing to work with. Prior to being introduced to Roy’s Plumbing I was a customer of another operation for 25 years. Needless to say I do not know what I was missing and will be switching to Roy’s for all my future needs.

He did a great job, answered all my questions and fully explained what he was looking at. It pays to be a member of Roy's. On March 25, Tyler came from Roy's to do a plumbing review.
