There are some great reasons to perform maintenance on your central
air conditioning system. Industry leading air conditioner manufacturers,
such as Amana, Goodman, Carrier and Rheem, require annual maintenance to
maintain the equipment warranty. Just like maintenance is required
for cars, it is required for central air conditioners. The owner's
operation manual describes the required maintenance which is figured
into the manufacturer's warranty period.
Performing professional annual or semi-annual air conditioning maintenance
will keep your air conditioner clean, lubricated with proper fluid
levels, such as Freon, while performing at its peak efficiency. This reduces noise, run time and energy consumption,
all of which is a good thing.
Since
central air conditioning units use high voltage and are often paired
with gas furnaces, it is important to remember, there is a reason
the state of Tennessee requires licensed HVAC/R professionals to install
and maintain central air conditioning and heating systems and it
starts with safety. Maintenance prevents and helps avoid potential
system failures and hazards. Maintaining your AC system today my
help you avoid a costly repair tomorrow. It will keep your family safe and protect your property from a devastating event tomorrow.
