What an AC tune-up includes

A tune-up checks the parts that keep your system moving air, removing heat and draining moisture:

  • Coils: Inspect and disinfect the indoor coil and clean the outdoor coil.
  • Drain line: Flush the condensate line, check the trap and pan, and test the float switch.
  • Electrical: Test the capacitor and contactor, tighten connections and look for damaged wiring.
  • Refrigerant: Check pressures and temperatures. A low charge can mean a leak, which we explain before recommending next steps.
  • Airflow: Check the filter, blower and temperature change across the coil.
  • Safety: Check the controls, disconnect and heat strips.

We explain what we find and quote any recommended repair before starting. The current offer is a $129 AC tune-up.

Why regular maintenance matters

Air conditioners in Central Florida run through much of the year and pull moisture from humid air. That moisture can contribute to drain-line buildup, while dirt on the coil can affect airflow and heat transfer. A scheduled visit gives a technician a chance to clean and check these parts before a small maintenance need becomes a larger service issue.

Choose a visit schedule

A spring visit checks the system before the long cooling season. A fall visit cleans summer buildup and checks the heating mode before cooler weather. Gold and Platinum plans include coil cleaning twice a year. See the maintenance plan details to compare coverage.

Care for your system between visits

Check your filter every month during the cooling season and replace it when it is dirty. Use the size printed on the filter frame. If your system has a drain-line access port, follow the manufacturer's maintenance instructions and do not bypass the float switch. Keep leaves, mulch and shrubs clear of the outdoor unit so air can move around it.

If you have a heat pump, a fall visit can check the reversing valve, defrost controls, sensor and backup heat strips before the heating season. Learn more about heat pumps and mini-splits.

AC maintenance questions

How often should an air conditioner be serviced in Florida?

At least once a year, because systems here run for most of the year and pull water from the air almost constantly. Twice a year, in spring and fall, is better for older systems, attic air handlers and heat pumps. The Silver plan covers an annual tune-up, and the Gold and Platinum plans include coil cleaning twice a year.

What is the difference between the Silver, Gold and Platinum plans?

Silver, at $189 a year, includes an annual tune-up, indoor coil disinfection, an efficiency check and flexible scheduling. Gold, at $289, adds twice-a-year coil cleaning, a controls and wiring safety inspection, priority scheduling and discounted repairs. Platinum, at $499, adds twice-a-year full inspections, advanced mold prevention, front-of-the-line service with no extra charge for emergency calls, and larger repair discounts.

Is there a discount for putting a second system on a plan?

Yes. Plan prices are per year for the first system, and each additional unit is 10% off. Homes with a second system for an upstairs floor, an addition or a mother-in-law suite can keep every unit on the same schedule, with the same visits, for less than buying a separate plan for each one.

Can I clear my own AC drain line?

You can help keep it clear. Many systems have a capped access port on the drain line near the air handler, and pouring a little white vinegar into it during the summer slows algae growth. Do not push wire up the line or bypass the float switch. If water is standing in the pan, switch the system off and call us.

Do maintenance plan members get faster service?

Gold members get priority scheduling, and Platinum members get front-of-the-line service with no extra charge for emergency calls. Silver includes flexible scheduling for the tune-up itself. Gold and Platinum members also get discounted repairs, with larger discounts on Platinum. See the maintenance plans page for the full list of what each plan includes.

Does a heat pump need a check before winter?

Yes, it is worth it. A heat pump has parts that only work in heating mode: the reversing valve, the defrost control and sensor, and the backup heat strips. A fall visit tests them before the first cold morning. It also clears the summer's dirt from the coil.
