Why AC Maintenance Matters

Just like a car needs regular tune-ups, your air conditioner needs routine attention to run at peak performance. Annual AC system maintenance can:

  • Extend the life of your AC system

  • Improve cooling efficiency and lower energy bills

  • Prevent breakdowns during the hottest months

  • Ensure cleaner indoor air quality

  • Maintain the manufacturer’s warranty

Skipping maintenance might not seem like a big deal now, but over time, clogged filters, dirty coils, and low refrigerant can lead to serious performance issues.

Let our team help you protect your investment. Request a professional tune-up today.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I schedule AC maintenance?

At least once a year, preferably in the spring, before temperatures rise. Regular maintenance keeps your system running efficiently, extends its lifespan, and prevents costly breakdowns.

During your tune-up, a professional technician will inspect, clean, and tune up your system. This includes checking refrigerant levels, cleaning coils, changing filters, inspecting electrical components, and ensuring proper airflow for peak performance.

Yes! You should replace or clean your air filter every 1-3 months, keep the outdoor unit clear of debris, and make sure your vents aren’t blocked. However, a professional inspection is still essential for deeper system checks.

If you notice weak airflow, warm air, strange noises, higher energy bills, or musty odors, your AC likely needs servicing. Ignoring these signs can lead to bigger (and more expensive) repairs.

Absolutely! A well-maintained AC runs more efficiently, reducing energy costs and preventing expensive repairs or premature replacements. Routine servicing can save you hundreds of dollars in the long run!

I am very pleased with this company because they have great people working for them. [My technician] was organized and all were at the house in 2 days. Paper booties were worn. The electricians knew what they were doing and produce excellent work. I had 3 new circuits put in along with updating box. All this was done in one day. This co also sends a pix of technician who is coming to your house. Every person had lovely manners, and cleaned up, even vacuumed under stove when it was moved. A fine experience and I’d use them again.

I had a water leak at my house and its cause was extremely difficult to find. Our tech spent a long time carefully analyzing and testing all possible options until he found the cause of the leak, like really a true detective, that nobody else before him was able to find. He demonstrated not only that he is a truly top professional but the he also is kind, patient and understanding. He explained all the issues very well and was also mindful of my time and convenience. He works very fast, efficiently and reliably and is extremely nice human being.

Point Loma Electric and Plumbing did electrical work in our house once and we liked the service the first time so we called them again. The technicians have been nothing but friendly and professional both times. They walked us through every step of the process. They showed up on time and completed the work in a timely manner. If we had any concerns they made sure the address them, if anything was needed, they handled it. We will definitely use Point Loma Electric and Plumbing again. Johnny who oversaw the work is the best!! Thank you

Had an emergency water heater leak. Called Point Loma. Within the hour, James shows up and goes to work. And by the next day, we have a tankless water heater up and running. Thanks to James for the excellent customer attention, service and hard work!

Always great to work with them - years 2011 for new electrical panel, and 2025 for some minor upgrades. Erich and Leo corrected 3 problems with old wiring we were having. Very great team and very much appreciate their work.

My a/c has not been working for some time. I called Point Loma Electrical and they sent Nicholas Mullins to stop by and check it out. What a great guy. He was very respectful, honest, evaluated the situation and made recommendations that I felt were straight forward. This company is top notch and I would recommend them to any of my friends and family. This is now my go to ac repair company.

We had Point Loma Elec rewire our entire 62 year-old house's electric. They worked efficiently and were thorough letting us know what was discovered and done each day. Timely, neat, and responsive and affordable with great financing. Highly recommend.

This is a great team. I had to replace some fluorescent lights in the kitchen. I couldn't do it myself because the ballasts had to be replaced and that's above my skill level. Anthony and Matt came today and put in new led lights (with a 10 year warranty- fluorescent lights are ancient tech). Anthony and Matt were very professional and efficient. I would recommend them highly!
