FAQs
What does a precision air-conditioning tune-up include?
Our technician completes a 20+ point inspection and maintenance routine that covers refrigerant pressure and charge, thermostat calibration, airflow measurement, electrical component testing, condensate drain cleaning, coil washing, lubrication of moving parts, tightening of all connections, and a safety/efficiency report. You receive a written checklist before we leave so you know exactly what was done and the current health of your system.
How often should I have my AC tuned up in Calhoun?
Because Northwest Georgia sees hot, humid summers and moderate pollen counts, we recommend a professional tune-up once per year—ideally in early spring. This timing ensures your unit is clean, properly charged, and ready to handle peak cooling loads before temperatures climb into the 90s. Regular annual service also keeps manufacturer warranties valid and prevents unexpected mid-season breakdowns.
Can a tune-up really lower my energy bills?
Yes. Dirt build-up, incorrect refrigerant levels, and failing electrical components can force an air conditioner to work 10–30 % harder. After a tune-up, most Calhoun homeowners notice a 5–15 % reduction in monthly cooling costs because the system cycles more efficiently and maintains set temperatures faster. The service often pays for itself within one cooling season.
How long will the service visit take and do I need to be home?
A standard precision tune-up generally takes 60–90 minutes per outdoor unit. If coil cleaning or minor repairs are required, allow up to two hours. We ask that an adult be present to grant access to the thermostat, indoor air handler, and outdoor condenser, and to review the final inspection report. After that, you’re free to resume your day while we work.
Do you service all air-conditioner brands and models?
Absolutely. Our EPA-certified technicians are factory-trained on the leading brands used throughout Gordon County, including Trane, Carrier, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, Ruud, and Daikin. We stock universal parts on our service trucks, so most minor issues discovered during the tune-up—such as a weak capacitor or clogged drain line—can be fixed on the spot regardless of brand or system age.
Is a tune-up necessary if my AC is still under warranty?
Yes. Nearly every manufacturer warranty requires proof of annual professional maintenance to keep coverage intact. Skipping a tune-up could void your parts warranty, leaving you responsible for expensive repairs later. A documented precision tune-up protects your investment and ensures any warranty claims are honored if a component fails prematurely.
