How Often Should You Schedule Your AC Tune-Up?
Wondering how often your AC needs maintenance? For most homes in our area, we recommend an annual AC tune-up, ideally scheduled in the spring before the summer cooling season begins.
For older systems, or units that run frequently, consider bi-annual maintenance (spring and fall) for extra protection and optimal year-round performance. If your home is prone to high levels of dust or pollen, more frequent checks might be beneficial.
