You should tune up your AC twice a year — once in the spring and once in the fall. The Southwest Florida air is getting a little cooler and the humidity is dropping. Tired of being closed in for months, most of us will want to just turn off the AC and fling open the windows. But before you do, call the air conditioning professionals at Avis Plumbing and Air Conditioning for a fall AC tune-up.

Why should you tune up your AC in the fall?

Your air conditioner has been working hard all summer. Hopefully you have had your air conditioning filter cleaned or changed on a regular basis and kept your duct vents and return vacuumed and free of surface dust. Even so, our air conditioners collect more dust and pollen with daily use throughout the summer than they do the rest of the year. Minute particles can still enter your AC system and cause problems.

In a few short months we will likely be turning on the heat, at least for the evenings. This makes fall the opportune time for an AC tune-up.

Tune up your AC in the fall to minimize repairs

Not only is regular maintenance recommended by all air conditioning manufacturers, many of them require you to tune up your AC in order to keep your warranty effective. Keeping your air conditioning system functioning smoothly and efficiently with proper cleaning and lubrication reduces the risk that you’ll encounter the need for expensive repairs.

A fall AC tune-up is easier to schedule

It’s much easier to schedule an appointment for an AC tune-up in the fall, when technicians are not quite as busy with emergency calls as they are during the heat of the summer. In the winter, schedules fill up again as the switch to heating dials up. This makes fall the perfect time to tune up your AC!

Tune up your AC in the fall to save money

Neglecting air conditioning maintenance can cause problems to snowball, resulting in higher energy costs, expensive repairs, and eventually an untimely system replacement. Avis Plumbing and Air Conditioning customers who have an AC service contract enjoy an added measure of comfort and peace of mind, knowing they have cut down the costs of repairs over the life of the unit.
