As warmer weather starts, you could be thinking, is an AC tune-up worth it in Pocatello? Even if your AC system is recently purchased or was running good last season.

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

The same applies for your AC. It’s equipment that consumes fuel and has moving pieces. Like a car, it can get leaks and its moving pieces can fail.

Having your equipment checked yearly by a Vogts Heating & Air technician can help spot minor issues before they lead to large malfunctions. (And cause your equipment to stop running!)

Six Reasons to Tune Up Your AC in the Spring

  1. It keeps your equipment clean. Since your air conditioner is placed outdoors, it’s more susceptible to having a buildup of dirt, leaves and other yard refuse, which can greatly affect your equipment’s efficiency. While you can try our how to clean your AC guide, we recommend calling an expert to service delicate internal pieces.
  2. It keeps your unit efficient. Dirt and yard debris that accumulate in your system can make it work harder and restrict airflow. Both these troubles can create higher energy consumption—and a higher energy bill!
  3. It could extend your equipment’s life span. A clean air conditioner is an efficient one and may even help it run for a longer period of time. That’s money that you’ll keep on your monthly cooling costs and over the years, because you won’t have to buy new equipment as soon.
  4. It helps spot little troubles before they lead to big, pricey problems. During professional AC maintenance, your specialist will carefully examine pieces and complete a series of air conditioning performance verifications. These detailed procedures often allow us to identify troubles before they turn into major troubles that result in a costly repair bill.
  5. It helps ensure worry-free cooling throughout the summer. After your air conditioner is serviced, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your equipment 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 valid. Most manufacturers call for regular maintenance to keep your warranty in place. Without this work, your unit is open to premature breakdowns and limited efficiency.
