Central Air Conditioning - Annual Maintenance and Inspection

Central Air Conditioning - Annual Maintenance and Inspection Service

Your Central Air Conditioning or Cooling system should be checked periodically. Regular checks and maintenance ensure optimum performance and efficiency. Annual inspection can help to identify issues before they cause damage to your Central Air Conditioning system.

Air Conditioning must be tuned in conjunction with the furnace fan as well to provide the airflow required for efficient cooling and De-humidification, depending on the type of refrigerant system and duct/filter restriction. If this is not properly set the unit may cool quicker than it dehumidifies leaving the home cool, but very damp. Certain tests are conducted during a maintenance service to adjust and ensure these settings are achieved and maintained regularly.
