FAQs
What is included in a precision air-conditioning tune-up?
Our precision tune-up is a 20+ point service that covers every critical part of your cooling system. We clean and straighten the outdoor condenser coils, check and adjust refrigerant pressures, tighten electrical connections, test capacitors and contactors, measure airflow and temperature split, flush the condensate drain, lubricate moving parts, calibrate the thermostat, and replace the air filter if provided. The technician documents all findings so you know exactly how your equipment is performing.
How often should my air conditioner in Kodak receive a tune-up?
For most residential systems we recommend a professional tune-up once a year, ideally in early spring before the cooling season starts. Homes with older equipment, high run-time, pets, or allergy concerns can benefit from semi-annual visits. Regular maintenance keeps efficiency high and helps you avoid midsummer breakdowns in Kodak’s heat and humidity.
What benefits can I expect after a precision tune-up?
A properly tuned system can operate up to 20% more efficiently, lowering monthly energy bills. It reduces the risk of unexpected repairs, extends equipment life, maintains manufacturer warranty compliance, and delivers more consistent indoor temperatures and better humidity control. Customers often notice quieter operation and improved indoor air quality as well.
How long does the tune-up visit take and do I need to be home?
Most tune-ups take 60–90 minutes per system. We prefer someone be home so we can access the thermostat, air handler, and electrical panel and review our findings with you. If you can’t be there, arrange access in advance and we’ll leave a detailed report and call you afterward.
Will a tune-up void my manufacturer’s warranty?
Actually, the opposite is true. Manufacturers require documented annual maintenance by a qualified professional to keep the warranty in force. Our precision tune-up provides written proof that the system was serviced correctly, protecting your parts and compressor coverage for the full warranty term.
Is a precision tune-up worth it if my system seems to be working fine?
Yes. Air conditioners lose efficiency gradually, and small issues such as low refrigerant or dirty coils rarely show obvious symptoms until they become expensive failures. A tune-up is preventative care—catching minor problems early, preserving efficiency, and ensuring your system is ready for Kodak’s hottest days. The cost of one tune-up is typically recovered through energy savings and avoided repair bills.
