3 Reasons to Never Skip AC Maintenance in Wilmington, NC

While you may be changing the air filter on your AC every 90 days, there’s a lot more that you and all homeowners in Wilmington, NC, should be doing in the way of maintenance. Ultimately, you should request AC maintenance from an expert every spring, as it will provide the following benefits.

1. A More Energy-Efficient AC

Every component contributes to the efficient operation of your AC, and maintenance can ensure that these components are in the condition they should be in. The technician can clean the coils, replace old wiring, lubricate the bearings and much more. The result will be a smoother, perhaps quieter, performance with cycles of a reasonable length and strong air pressure. If you haven’t had spring maintenance completed yet, it’s not too late to schedule a maintenance appointment.

2. Fewer Repairs and a Longer Life Span

Many repairs crop up only because you didn’t see the warning signs. A maintenance technician, though, can identify all sorts of hidden problems with an AC and address them before they grow, thus preventing the need for so many repairs.

As this also keeps the AC from developing premature wear and tear, you can put off new AC installation for years to come. The typical central AC can last up to 20 years with maintenance, and mini-split systems can go for 30 years.

3. Better Indoor Air Quality

As the AC runs, it removes humidity from the air, so maintenance can have a positive impact on your indoor air quality, too, though it’s more indirect. Either way, asthma and allergy sufferers in your home will especially benefit from yearly AC maintenance.
