When Is the Best Time to Schedule an AC Tune-Up?

Spring is here in the Bay Area, and our air conditioners are up and running. As the temperatures rise, it’s important to consider whether your AC is in top condition. Skipping maintenance will likely leave your air conditioner running inefficiently and at a higher risk of breakdown.

Schedule professional system maintenance at least once a year to improve reliability and control your energy costs. While maintenance is always beneficial, there’s an ideal time to schedule your tune-up to get the most value.

Benefits of AC Maintenance Ahead of Summer

If you haven’t kept up with your AC maintenance, you might not realize the importance of professional attention for your HVAC system. Your air conditioner is designed to be serviced annually. In some cases, you might find that warranty coverage requires it.

Invest in air conditioning maintenance each year to:

  • Improve energy efficiency
  • Reduce the risk of breakdowns
  • Detect and resolve repair needs early
  • Enhance performance for greater comfort
  • Extend your system’s service life to avoid premature replacement
  • Ensure warranty coverage if your AC’s manufacturer requires it
  • Monitor electrical and indoor air quality issues

Spring is the Best Time To Schedule Your Annual AC Tune-Up

As a general rule, you’ll want to schedule your annual AC tune-up just before or after the weather turns warm. Of the two, you might find it’s easier to schedule during the spring before people start noticing trouble with their systems and your local HVAC company gets into their busy season.

The goal of maintenance is for your air conditioning to run as optimally as possible when you need it most. Running for an entire summer will inevitably lead to some minor deterioration in your system. You want the days when you run the system most to also be the days when your AC is most efficient and least likely to break down and leave you sweating while you wait for repairs.

Other Reasons To Schedule a Tune-Up

Of course, sometimes, you might need to schedule an additional maintenance appointment. A professional should inspect your air conditioner if you use it regularly throughout the year or have a ductless HVAC system that heats in the winter and cools in the summer.
