Air Conditioning Maintenance in Jacksonville & St. Augustine, FL

In the Florida summer, you rely on the air conditioning in your Jacksonville home to keep you and your family comfortable and safe. Your AC needs to deliver reliably effective, efficient cooling throughout the year. It works hard all summer, but when was it last tuned up?

Routine air conditioning maintenance from the expert HVAC technicians at United Air Temp can help you keep your air conditioner operating like new in the years to come, minimizing performance, reliability, and efficiency issues that inevitably result from wear and tear.

We’ll use the latest tools, techniques, and best practices to keep your AC running the way it needs to when the heat hits hardest.

The Importance of Air Conditioning Maintenance

Like any other piece of complex equipment in your home, air conditioners deteriorate over time with use. Wiring heats up, expands, and contracts again, ball bearings wear down, dust builds up and makes ventilation worse (and encourages damaging freezes), sensors lose their calibration, the list goes on.

Over the course of a year, you might not immediately notice the damage accumulating or its impact on performance and efficiency, but it’s there.

In addition to the direct effects on your comfort and energy costs, these issues can cause serious problems when not addressed promptly, including serious damage to your unit, warranting repairs or replacement, and leaving your home without cool air until a technician can resolve the issue.

Wondering why routine maintenance matters? Contact United Air Temp to learn more or schedule a visit.

What To Expect During AC Maintenance

Keeping your air conditioner working well starts with an assessment, so we can understand what’s going on with your unit. We’ll combine visual inspections of the exterior and interior with tests using specialized tools to identify the state of your AC system.

Our Clean and Check procedure includes, as needed:

• Check thermostat calibration (improperly calibrated thermostats will result in incorrect temperature in the home)
• Clean and check the blower fan to remove dirt and dust buildup, which reduces the amount of air circulated through your home
• Wash or clean any washable filter
• Check and rinse outdoor coils
• Check all electronics
• Check for proper temperature drop (refrigerant pressures checked when needed)
• Check fan control
• Lubricate all moving parts
• Check all electrical wiring is secure and intact
• Clean and check condensation drain
• ENVIROCON the system to kill the mold and mildew that grows in the AC system

4 Benefits of Preventative Air Conditioning Maintenance

Preventative maintenance for your air conditioner — the kind we do and the kind your user manual suggests, like changing filters — isn’t just about avoiding future problems that result in your AC lasting 12 years instead of 13. Regular maintenance can offer significant benefits every year:

• Significant reduction in the risk of a breakdown or need for costly major repairs
• Improved energy efficiency resulting in lower cooling bills, especially in summer
• Maintain comfort more reliably by keeping performance at appropriate highs
• Keep your indoor air quality high by keeping your system clean

Preventive maintenance offers real, tangible benefits — especially when you’re as reliant on AC as you might be in Jacksonville’s climate.
