Air Conditioning Maintenance
Utah weather is unpredictable. When it's spring along Utah's Wasatch Front, that means summer is just around the corner. Or it might snow.

Five Reasons to Maintain Your AC Unit in Utah
-
Protect your manufacturer warranty
All air conditioners under warranty require yearly maintenance to keep the warranty valid. You take your car in for regular maintenance—apply that same strategy to your HVAC system.
-
Lower your energy use
A poorly maintained piece of equipment works harder to get the job done. In the case of your air conditioner, that means using more electricity to cool down your home.
-
Help the environment
We all want to be good stewards when it comes to protecting our state’s natural resources. Replacing your old system reduces your energy use. Plus, you can qualify for rebates and tax credits.
-
Avoid a costly repair
Our NATE-certified team often uncovers a hidden issue before it turns into a costly and inconvenient repair.
-
Create a more comfortable home
We can get some pretty extreme weather in Utah. Combat the heat, reduce the mugginess, maintain your HVAC system!
What Does an AC Tune-Up Include?
Ultimately, the best time for annual air conditioning maintenance is whenever you can schedule it. But waiting until the middle of summer to schedule a tune-up could exacerbate problems in need of repair and cost you more money in utility bills.
The sweet spot for annual maintenance is in March, April, and early May. Our yearly inspection and maintenance of your air conditioning include:
- Check the thermostat calibration—for accurate control and to prevent the system from running longer than necessary, increasing energy use.
- Test the voltage distributors—to extend motor life, prevent overheating, and reduce energy use.
- Clean or replace the air filter—to reduce energy use, increase airflow, improve indoor air quality, and improve comfort.
- Inspect the cooling coil—For dirt and debris that can rob the system of energy and performance.
