Frequently Asked Questions

Are AC tune-ups worth it?

Absolutely. Tune-ups boost efficiency, reduce breakdowns, and extend the lifespan of your system.

What’s the difference between a tune-up and maintenance?

A tune-up is part of seasonal maintenance—it’s a focused check to improve immediate system performance, often done in spring.

A tune-up and maintenance are two terms that are often used interchangeably, but they refer to different aspects of keeping a system, such as a vehicle or HVAC system, in optimal working condition. Understanding the distinction between the two can help ensure that you are taking the right steps to care for your equipment effectively.

A tune-up is a specific type of service that is typically performed to enhance the immediate performance of a system. It involves a series of targeted checks and adjustments designed to optimize the system's efficiency and functionality. For example, in the context of a vehicle, a tune-up may include replacing spark plugs, adjusting the ignition timing, and checking the fuel system to ensure that the engine runs smoothly. In the case of an HVAC system, a tune-up might involve cleaning the coils, checking refrigerant levels, and inspecting the thermostat. Tune-ups are often performed seasonally, with many people opting to have them done in the spring to prepare for the warmer months ahead. This proactive approach can help identify and address potential issues before they become more significant problems, ultimately leading to improved performance and longevity of the system.

On the other hand, maintenance refers to the broader, ongoing care and servicing of a system to keep it running efficiently over time. Maintenance encompasses a wide range of activities, including regular inspections, cleaning, lubrication, and part replacements as needed. It is typically scheduled at regular intervals, such as annually or semi-annually, and is designed to prevent breakdowns and extend the life of the equipment. For instance, routine maintenance for a vehicle might include oil changes, tire rotations, and brake inspections, while maintenance for an HVAC system could involve changing air filters, cleaning ducts, and checking for leaks.

In summary, while a tune-up is a focused, seasonal service aimed at enhancing immediate performance, maintenance is a comprehensive approach to ensuring the long-term health and efficiency of a system. Both are essential for optimal operation, but they serve different purposes and should be scheduled accordingly to achieve the best results.

How long does a tune-up take?

Typically, 60–90 minutes depending on system size and condition.
