As spring starts, you might be wondering, is an AC tune-up worth it in Wisconsin Rapids? Even if your air conditioning equipment is newer or was running good last season.

Here’s one way to look at it. You wouldn’t buy a brand-new vehicle and never expect to request any maintenance for it, such as putting in fresh oil or getting new tires.

The same affects your air conditioner. It’s equipment that uses fuel and has moving components. Like a car, it can get leaks and its moving pieces can fail.

Having your system checked annually by a Rapids Sheet Metal Works Inc tech can help spot small issues before they become large breakdowns. (And cause your unit to stop running!)

Six Reasons to Tune Up Your AC in the Spring

  1. It keeps your system clean. Since your cooling system is located outdoors, it’s more susceptible to having a buildup of dirt, leaves and other yard clippings, which can majorly affect your equipment’s efficiency. While you can try our how to clean your AC guide, we recommend calling an expert to service complicated internal pieces.
  2. It keeps your unit efficient. Dirt and yard debris that accumulate inside your unit can make it work harder and restrict airflow. Both these problems can lead to higher energy use—and a more expensive energy bill!
  3. It could prolong your equipment’s life span. A clean unit is an efficient one and might even help it last for a longer period of time. That’s money that you’ll save on your monthly electricity costs and over the years, since you won’t have to buy new equipment as fast.
  4. It helps locate little troubles before they turn into big, pricey problems. During professional AC maintenance, your tech will closely examine components and complete a series of cooling performance tests. These detailed procedures often allow us to locate problems before they turn into major issues that result in an expensive repair bill.
  5. It helps deliver worry-free operation throughout the season. After your AC is serviced, you’ll have peace of mind being aware your unit is ready to deliver worry-free comfort. Even on the warmest days. It’s one of the wisest methods to keep your air conditioner from failing.
  6. It keeps your warranty in place. Most manufacturers expect regular maintenance to keep your warranty valid. Without this service, your unit is open to advanced breakdowns and lowered efficiency.
