If you’ve considered saving money by performing your own HVAC maintenance, you’re not alone. While it’s attractive, trying to tune up your own air conditioner could end up costing more money if you make a mistake. Your air conditioner is more complicated than you might think. 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 things change.

Whether you’re thinking of 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: As the internet has given us access to a lot of information and guidance, it won’t provide the education a professional gets from certified institutions. Once they’ve completed their training and education, our technicians at McFadden Heating & Cooling are experts in whatever your HVAC system needs. It’s smarter to have the work done correctly rather than having to make costly repairs after.
  • Technician tune-ups are more in-depth: A qualified technician will understand everything that needs to be addressed during a routine maintenance appointment. They’ll assess your thermostat settings, refrigerant level, electrical and moving components and your system controls. As part of the maintenance, they are also on the lookout for any signs of a more serious problem.
  • You can see cost-savings after a professional tune-up: It’s not always easy for homeowners to understand indications of a potential problem. Continuing to run your unit could cause serious damage that ends with expensive repairs or even replacement. One of the experts from McFadden Heating & Cooling can identify issues before they become too serious—reducing your expenses. And a properly maintained system will run more efficiently, helping your energy bills.

There’s still time to schedule your annual maintenance appointment. McFadden Heating & Cooling is here to make sure your equipment continues to work as efficiently as possible. Call us at 519-683-2339 to schedule an appointment with us. You’ll be confident knowing your system has your back.
