We\u2019ve written before about the numerous benefits of scheduling regular AC tune-ups. And they are numerous: lower operating costs, fewer repair needs, sudden breakdown prevention, an extended service life, and all-around peace of mind.<\/p>\n<p>But there\u2019s even more to talk about. Below we\u2019ve listed a few benefits of having routine air conditioning tune-ups from professionals that you may not have known about.<!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Better Indoor Air Quality<\/h2>\n<p>Poor indoor air quality is a consistent problem in modern homes. There are services to help improve it, such as installing filters and purifiers. But regular air conditioning maintenance is a key part of better IAQ. An air conditioning system that\u2019s neglected will pick up dust and dirt in its components that it will then circulate through the house. A professional deep cleaning eliminates this hidden source of contaminants.<\/p>\n<h2>Less Humid Conditions<\/h2>\n<p>Air conditioners are not dehumidifiers (unless they were designed specifically as AC-dehumidifier combos). But they do have some humidification properties, since evaporating refrigerant in the indoor coil draws moisture out of the air along with the heat. An air conditioner that isn\u2019t maintained will soon develop dirt along the coil. This lowers cooling capacity, but it also leaves extra moisture in the air and results in a home with higher humidity.<\/p>\n<h2>Keep the Warranty Current<\/h2>\n<p>Here\u2019s a vital fact that many people don\u2019t know: the manufacturer\u2019s warranty on an air conditioning system usually requires that the system have regular professional maintenance. Otherwise the warranty isn\u2019t valid. Most warranties cover a 10-year period and pay for any repairs or replacements necessary because of a factory fault with the equipment. Since around two percent of central air conditioning systems leave the factory with some type of fault, the warranty can save a home hundreds of dollars if something goes wrong with its AC. You don\u2019t want to lose this coverage for your cooling system\u2014and maintenance will keep it in force.<\/p>\n<h2>Improved Safety<\/h2>\n<p>Yes, an air conditioning system can turn into a safety hazard if it isn\u2019t regularly maintained. Although uncommon, air conditioners may suffer from electrical problems that lead to fires. With maintenance, you\u2019ll almost never have to worry about AC electrical dangers.<\/p>\n<h2>Special Benefits We Offer<\/h2>\n<p>There are also air conditioning tune-up benefits that come not from the service our technicians provide to your AC, but which they offer directly to you.
