Air Conditioner Maintenance in Massachusetts

What is Usually Found During Air Conditioner Maintenance?

It really depends on the age of your system, how well it was designed for your home, and how recently it was maintained in the past. Most often we find older, neglected systems to have many issues, but some of the following can be found in air conditioners of any age:

• Rodent damage to wiring in the outdoor unit
• Failed fan/blower motor at the air handler or outdoor unit
• Fail capacitor in the outdoor unit
• Debris build-up in outdoor coil fins restricting airflow
• Leaking outdoor coil due to damage or wear and tear
• Damage to the outdoor unit due to fallen ice
• Clogged condensate line

As we alluded to earlier, annual maintenance can help prevent any and all of the above issues, avoiding costly and unexpected breakdowns when you need your AC the most.

No matter what condition your system is in, our maintenance experts will take the time and care to personally address the specific needs of your home and the problems your system may be facing down the road. Here’s what you can expect from a visit with us:

• You’ll receive a 30-minute call-ahead when we’re on our way to you, and we’ll arrive in a fully stocked truck, prepared to perform almost any task related to your air conditioning system.
• Your technician will perform a complete inspection of every single component both indoor and outdoor and perform their maintenance tasks.
• If we find any problems with your system, we’ll present you with our recommended options and let you make the choice that is right for you.
• Removing dust and debris that can hamper your system’s functioning
• Checking each component of your AC to ensure it works as it was designed to
• Changing your filters

And the best part is that all of our work is backed by a 1-year parts and labor warranty, so you can have peace of mind knowing you’re good to go for the cooling season.

While it’s possible to perform some basic maintenance as a homeowner, such as replacing filters at the air handler, or keeping your indoor units clean (if ductless) – getting the most out of your system’s performance each year will require a licensed HVAC technician. The components that make up an air conditioning system are potentially dangerous if handled improperly, and certain aspects of a complete maintenance can only be performed with proper knowledge and access to specialized tools and equipment.

Our fully licensed and dedicated maintenance team goes through hours of in-class and on-the-job training to meet certification and licensing requirements. They’ll know what to look for as common failure points during the maintenance, and in the event that you do need a repair or new AC installation, you already have a trained professional who is able to get it done right then and there.
