Murphy’s law states that “anything that can go wrong will go wrong.” Well, we’re here to tell you it doesn’t have to be that way with your air conditioner and heating systems. Proper tune-ups and maintenance checks can save you both stress and money.

Discover why routine AC and heating tune-ups are actually worth doing.

Why AC and Furnace Tune-Ups Are Important

Getting regular tune-ups is more than just a chore our parents told us to do as new adults. Heating and cooling systems are complex machines with numerous internal components. Just because one part works well doesn’t mean that everything else does, which is often why these systems seem to stop working out of nowhere.

Now, add the extreme temperatures both Utah and Nevada face during different seasons and you have a potential disaster on your hands.

Here are all the benefits of regular AC and heating tune-ups:

An infographic titled "6 Benefits of Getting a Tune-Up". The listed benefits are: 1) Prevents expensive repairs, 2) Saves money monthly, 3) Security, 4) Better efficiency, 5) Maintains warranty, and 6) Extends systems’ lifespans.

Prevents expensive repairs: Repairs are caught and fixed early, saving you money on pricey repairs and replacements.
Saves money monthly: Having clean units will save you money on utility bills all year long.
Security: Regular maintenance ensures you’re not left with a last-minute emergency and are safe from dangers like carbon monoxide leaks.
Better efficiency: Keeping either system in top shape means it will perform better for longer.
Maintains warranty: Most heating and cooling systems’ warranties say you must do regular maintenance to keep it active.
Extends systems’ lifespans: Regular maintenance prolongs a heating or cooling system by years, thanks to the above benefits.

Now, you might be wondering what’s the point of getting both your heating and AC system inspected at the same time when you only need one to work well in the upcoming season. Here is why your systems should be serviced together:

Saves money: You save time and money because a technician won’t need to come out on separate occasions for each system.
More likely to get done: You’re less likely to forget to schedule a tune-up if you just get them done together at the same time each year.
Special pricing: The bundling of services often has special pricing or promotions.
Relax all year round: You miss the rush of customers that call during the summer and winter months, meaning a technician can come when it’s most convenient for you.

How Often Should You Get an AC or Furnace Maintenance Check?

Both systems should be inspected and maintained every six months, which is why it makes sense to do them at the same time. Getting this done in the spring and then again in the fall will ensure your systems work just how they should and when they should.
