If you’ve ever considered doing your own air conditioner maintenance to save money, you’re not alone. While it’s tempting, trying to tune up your own air conditioner provides the potential for bigger expenses and errors. Your machine is more intricate than many people realize. Even if you aren’t a handyman, you might be thinking about postponing your yearly appointment to avoid the extra cost. That isn’t a great idea either. Sure, your unit worked perfectly last year, but that doesn’t mean it will continue that way forever.

Whether you’re considering doing maintenance yourself or skipping it altogether, take a look at some of the benefits with selecting a qualified technician to take a look at your system:

• Technicians have the necessary training: While you can learn a lot about your home’s system through your owner’s guide and the internet, it won’t provide the education an expert gets from certified institutions. After going through their training, our technicians at Gee & Missler Heating & Air Conditioning are experts in whatever your HVAC system needs. It’s going to save time by doing it right the first time rather than having to make an emergency AC repair after some well-intentioned DIY work.
• Technician tune-ups are more comprehensive: The professionals will take a look at all of the different components during the appointment. They’ll assess your thermostat settings, refrigerant level, electrical and moving components and your system controls. While they’re checking your system, they’ll be on the lookout for indications of more serious issues.
• You can see cost-savings after a professional tune-up: A professional will have an easier time looking for any potential issues. Continuing to run your air conditioner could cause serious damage that means you’ll need a costly repair or replacement down the road. The professionals at Gee & Missler Heating & Air Conditioning can recognize issues before they become too serious—eliminating extra costs to you. And a properly maintained system will run more efficiently, helping your energy bills.
