Essential HVAC Maintenance Services in South Florida

What Are the Benefits of AC Maintenance?

The hot, humid weather in South Florida forces homeowners to run their air conditioners nearly continuously throughout the year. This can put an incredible amount of stress and strain on vital components, which will wear out faster during periods of heavy usage. The main reason we answer so many emergency AC repair calls during heat waves is that most folks neglect their cooling systems until they desperately need them.

In addition to fewer breakdowns and more consistent cooling, here’s a brief list of the benefits of regular AC maintenance:

• A cooler, more comfortable indoor space
• Lower utility bills
• A much longer lifespan for your system
• Fewer repairs
• Better for the environment
• Quieter cooling
• Affordable

Additional Advantages of Regular AC Maintenance

Because they know how important regular service is, most major manufacturers now require maintenance documentation before they process payouts and cover extended warranties. If the owner cannot provide proof that their AC system received regular maintenance service while under its original factory warranty, chances are they will not qualify for extended warranty coverage. As a licensed service provider, Cousin's Air, Inc. offers maintenance agreements to residential users. The cost of these packages varies based on the system and the energy needs of its users.

Tailored AC Maintenance Programs for South Florida Residents

The more you use your air conditioning, the more maintenance it will require. Although once-a-year AC maintenance may suffice for snowbirds, we recommend that full-time residents of South Florida have their systems serviced four times a year. These regular seasonal tune-ups can help minimize the risk of a disruption during the warmer months. Even when an AC system is working as it should, it will slow down a bit and use more energy as the season wears on.

Our technicians perform the following South Florida AC maintenance tasks to return them to peak performance:

• Changing or cleaning dirty, clogged air filters
• Checking for proper amperage draw
• Checking coolant levels and adding coolant, if necessary
• Inspecting cooling fins for damage
