Anyone who has ever spent a summer in Wylie, TX, knows how hot it can get. The average temperature in June, July, and August can reach 95 degrees or higher during the day. The temperature at night during the summer can reach 75 degrees. During the summer, most people rely greatly on their air conditioning systems to keep their homes cool and comfortable. If you want to be sure that your air conditioner is always functioning properly, you should have an annual air conditioning service performed before the cooling season begins. There are several reasons why an annual AC service is so essential.

#1 Save Money On Your Energy Bills

If you are like most homeowners you do what you can to save money. When you have an annual air conditioning service performed, your system will work as efficiently as possible.

If your system is not functioning efficiently, it will need to work harder to keep your home at the desired temperature. The harder your air conditioner has to work, the more electricity is required. This can cause a significant increase in your electric bills. The best way to keep your bills down is to have an annual service performed. The HVAC tech will inspect and tune up your system, which will ensure that the system is functioning as efficiently as possible.

#2 Extend the Lifespan Of Your Air Conditioner

Like all of the appliances in your Wylie, TX home, your air conditioning system will have a maximum lifespan. When your system reaches its maximum lifespan, it will need to be replaced. Replacing the air conditioner can cost anywhere from $3,000 to $8,000. Because this is a significant amount of money, you should do what you can to increase your air conditioner’s lifespan. The best way to do this is to have an annual air conditioning system service performed.

As mentioned above, if your system isn’t working efficiently, it will need to work harder to keep your home cool. When the system is working overtime, it will wear out faster, which will reduce your system’s lifespan. Having an annual air conditioning service performed will increase the lifespan of your system.

#3 Save Money On Costly Repairs

When you call an HVAC tech for an annual air conditioning service, they will inspect the system completely. If they find a small issue, it can be repaired before it becomes a major one. It is much less expensive to repair a minor problem than it is to repair a major one. Therefore, the money you spend to have the air conditioner service performed will be well worth it when you compare it to the cost of an expensive repair.

#4 Prevent An Inconvenient Breakdown

The last thing you want is for your air conditioner to break down during the hottest time of the year. If this happens, it will get hot in your home, making it impossible for your family to be comfortable. One of the best ways to prevent a complete system breakdown is to have an annual air conditioning service performed. During the service, the HVAC tech will fully inspect your system, allowing them to catch any issues that can cause a breakdown early. This will ensure that your system will keep your home cool all summer long.

#5 Your Home Will Be Cleaner, Longer

Over time, dirt and dust can build up in your air conditioning system. When this happens, the dust and debris will blow around the home. When this happens, you will need to dust and clean more frequently to keep your home clean. During an annual air conditioning service, the HVAC tech will remove parts of the system to clean them properly. This will prevent dust and debris from blowing around your home, and you won’t’ need to clean your house as often.

#6 Convenient Appointments

The busiest times for an HVAC tech are the summer and the winter. If you have an issue with your air conditioner during the summer and it isn’t working properly, it can be days before you can get an appointment that fits in with your schedule. If you have an annual air conditioning service performed before the cooling season begins in the spring, you will be able to get an appointment that works with your schedule, and you won’t need to worry about waiting days for emergency service during the summer.

#7 Keep Your Warranty Valid

If your air conditioning system is under warranty, you should make annual AC service appointments a priority. Most manufactures require the homeowner to have their systems regularly serviced to keep the warrant valid. If you neglect to have your system serviced and it breaks down, you will need to pay for the repair cost out of your own pocket. Because this can be very expensive, it is essential that you have your system serviced every year.
