Benefits of Scheduling Air Conditioning Tune-Up
Air conditioning maintenance for air conditioners and heat pumps is a simple, inexpensive service with great rewards. Some of the benefits that come with regular cooling tune-ups include:
Maintenance tune-ups eliminate the issues that restrict system performance and in turn, reduce system energy efficiency. With these issues out of the way, your furnace, boiler or heat pump operates with higher energy efficiency for the season.
HVAC system manufacturers require professional maintenance on an annual basis to preserve their equipment warranties. If you skip a tune-up, your warranty may not cover expensive repairs later on. Invest in professional maintenance to make sure your warranty covers you as expected.
Maintenance tune-ups keep heating system components in good shape so they are less likely to break down due to damage. A trained eye on your system during maintenance creates an opportunity to spot potential issues in the beginning stages for early correction. Heating system maintenance helps prevent system breakdowns and associated repair calls and fees.
Furnaces & Boilers last an average of 10 to 15 years; heat pumps average around 10 to 12 years. With regular maintenance, it’s possible for heating systems to last even longer. Annual maintenance over the years can keep your heating unit in service longer, so you don’t have to purchase a new system sooner than you’d planned to.
A tune-up for your heat pump, mini-split, or furnace eliminates restrictions on your system to ensure all components function as they should. The result is a steady, reliable performance that keeps your home warm and cozy throughout the winter.

Some Commonly Asked Questions about AC Maintenance
Air conditioning maintenance is a very important step that needs to be part of your home care routine. AOK Heating, Cooling & Electrical explains the important points of air conditioning maintenance.
HVAC manufacturers recommend yearly maintenance for furnaces & oil burners. For heat pump systems, these units should receive tune-ups two times per year – this is because they function as both a heater and an air conditioner.
Heating system maintenance tune-ups are quite affordable, usually running under $100. At this price, you can’t afford not to schedule a tune-up! The savings and warranty protection provided can more than cover the cost of your annual tune-ups. Lack of maintenance is the #1 reason heating and cooling systems fail prematurely. By having your Cooling System regularly inspected and maintained, you’ll easily recoup the cost of the tune-up.
Maintenance is beneficial any time of year. Ideally, you want to schedule your tune-up prior to time to start up the system for the season – but if you don’t get around to it, do not skip it for the year! We recommend you schedule heating maintenance tune-ups in the fall, and AC tune-ups in the fall. These are the times of year when you won’t have to wait as long and your system will be ready to go when the weather changes.
Professional tune-ups aren’t the only care your furnace, boiler or heat pump needs during the year. Between tune-ups, take the following steps to maintain and care for your heating system:
- Inspect your heating system periodically. If it is making a wierd noise or a funny smell, give us a call. Make sure to keep the exterior exhaust area clear of snow or other debris that could cause a blockage.
- Keep Carbon Monoxide detectors in good working order
- Check the air filter monthly and change it as needed. Note you may need to replace the filter more often during the summer and winter, as the HVAC system is more heavily used during these times. If you are unsure whether you should replace the filter or not, a good rule of thumb is hold it up to a light – if light shines through, it has life left; if you cannot see any light through the layer of contaminants, replace the filter with a fresh one and throw the old filter away.
