An air conditioner's filters, coils, and fins require regular maintenance for the unit to function effectively and efficiently throughout its years of service. Neglecting necessary maintenance ensures a steady decline in air conditioning performance while energy use steadily increases, which saves you money!
Not regularly servicing your air conditioner can also void any warranties the unit may still have. This annual inspection will not cost you much time. It takes roughly one hour to complete, so clearing out an entire day won’t be necessary (unless there is a more severe issue).
If left unserviced, an average A/C system loses roughly 5% efficiency per year and uses more energy, which will cost you more in energy bills. This lack of routine maintenance also puts more strain on the system, reducing its lifespan by as much as 50%.
