Why your air conditioning unit may require maintenance
Air conditioning units require regular maintenance to ensure they operate efficiently and effectively. Common issues that may require maintenance include dirty or clogged air filters, refrigerant leaks, faulty electrical components, and dirty or obstructed condenser coils. Neglecting these issues can lead to reduced efficiency, higher energy bills, and decreased cooling performance. Additionally, failing to maintain your air conditioning unit can shorten its lifespan and require costly repairs or replacement. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning and inspection of the unit, can help prevent these issues and keep your air conditioning unit running smoothly. It’s recommended to have a professional HVAC technician inspect and service your air conditioning unit at least once a year, ideally before the start of the cooling season.
