The Importance of Professional Air Conditioning Installation
Warranties: when the experts install your new system you’ll get a warranty on the equipment and a guarantee on the installation — which means you can be confident everything will work as it’s expected to, and if it doesn’t, a Certified Technician from the local agency will carry out the necessary repairs for you during your warranty period.
Safety: installing a new system isn’t as easy as plugging in a cord and flipping a switch. It involves sharp pieces of metal and electrical components, and an untrained individual risks cuts, electrocution, falls, and more. Professional technicians know the safety precautions to take and the state and local codes to comply with.
Not only will a professional AC installation result in better performance and improved efficiency but you’ll also be assured you’re using the right equipment and that it’s been properly installed. Extra are always available to help you select the right HVAC system for your home.
The Importance of Regular Air Conditioner Maintenance
Summer is coming, and that means increased outside temperatures, dust and consistently high humidity. Now more than ever, people are using their home air conditioners to keep cool and comfortable. If your A/C unit isn’t working properly it can lead to more than mere discomfort. Ignoring regular maintenance can turn into costly repairs and replacement.
Avoid that scenario by keeping your air conditioner in top shape. Here’s why having your A/C inspected and cleaned should be a priority this summer:
Protects Important Equipment
It can be expensive to replace an air conditioner especially if you’re having to do so every few years. Keeping on top of maintenance extends the life of your equipment. In fact, professionals say many A/C replacements could have been prevented with regular maintenance. In addition, scheduled check-ups reduce the possibility of unexpected and costly repairs. The need for emergency service is also greatly reduced. While servicing your A/C unit, a skilled and qualified technician will notify you of any worn equipment or any repairs or parts in need of replacement.
This helps you prevent damage and avoid an emergency call. Maintenance also reduces the stress on air conditioners. When ducts are clogged and filters are dirty, A/C units must work harder to maintain air output. This places increased stress on the motor and cooling units and can soon result in a breakdown.
Energy Savings Add Up
Preventative maintenance keeps air conditioners working at optimum capacity and it helps this important equipment conserve energy. Regular A/C “check-ups” include thorough cleaning of blades, cooling coils, and other components. This maximizes energy efficiency, which saves you money on utility bills.
Your air conditioner tune-up will include many important checkpoints, monitoring/replacement of coolant, thorough inspection of equipment and seals, thermostat check, and more. In addition to scheduled maintenance, you can help ensure a long life of your A/C unit by changing your air filter every one or two months. During times of heavy use (such as the summer months), you might have to clean the filter every month.
Offers Comfort and Peace of Mind
Outside of work and school, home is where families spend most of their time. That’s why air quality should be a top concern. When air conditioners fall into disrepair, dirt and debris can collect in an around the unit. Over time, this has a negative impact on the indoor air quality.
Also, clogged filters allow air contaminants to pass through, creating allergy and breathing quality complications. Why risk the safety of your guests and loved ones?
