Early spring is the best time to arrange for AC maintenance, but there isn\u2019t an \u201cexpiration date\u201d for this service. It needs to be done each year, and it\u2019s always better to have it done later than to skip it entirely.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But you don\u2019t need to worry about getting your AC maintenance done \u201clate,\u201d because right now is a great time to have it done. It\u2019s still officially spring, and although the weather is warming up now into the 80s on a regular basis, the most serious heat hasn\u2019t arrived yet. You\u2019re not late if you schedule air conditioning maintenance now. You\u2019re right on time!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><b>Why You Should Never Skip This Service<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a busy season, more so than in other years. People are getting ready to shift into a \u201cnew normal\u201d as they get back to many routines, although with changes. We understand if a few important tasks might slip through the cracks, and that\u2019s why we\u2019re posting this reminder about how it\u2019s not too late for maintenance. Believe us, missing maintenance during the year can have major consequences that will harm your budget and comfort.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are the top reasons why you should make AC maintenance an integral part of your household services each year:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>It gives your AC a longer life: <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Who wants to have to replace their air conditioning system years early? No one, of course. But that\u2019s what is likely to happen with an AC that misses maintenance: an early and costly retirement. Maintenance done each year will help your air conditioning system last from 10 to 15 years without trouble.\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/li>\n<li><strong>It eliminates the majority of repairs:<\/strong> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you\u2019ve got cooling troubles, you can always count on our technicians for <\/span><a href=\"\/service-areas\/brighton-mi-hvac\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">air conditioning repair in Brighton, MI<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. But we know you\u2019d prefer not to have to call us in the first place, and regular maintenance prevents the majority of repairs you\u2019d otherwise have to have done to keep the AC running.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>It keeps the warranty valid:<\/strong> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The equipment warranty for your AC is usually valid for 10 years. But this important consumer protection may be voided if maintenance is neglected. You might end up having to pay for repairs and replacement parts that would otherwise be covered under the warranty. Our maintenance will ensure warranty compliance.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>It stops energy efficiency plunges:<\/strong> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maintenance will help an air conditioning system maintain 95% of its energy efficiency until the last one or two years of its service life. Without maintenance, efficiency will decline each year, and you\u2019ll end up paying much more to run the system than you would otherwise.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>It provides peace of mind:<\/strong> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can\u2019t put a price tag on the relaxation that comes from knowing your AC is in top shape to handle the heat. An AC maintained before the summer heat strikes has a great chance of getting through the season without trouble.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>First Choice Heating &amp; Cooling serves Fenton, Linden, Holly, and the surrounding areas.
