FAQs
What is included in a precision air-conditioning tune-up?
Our Whitwell precision tune-up is a 20+ point service that covers everything your cooling system needs before the summer heat arrives. We measure refrigerant charge, calibrate the thermostat, tighten electrical connections, test capacitors and contactors, inspect the evaporator and outdoor coils, clear and treat the condensate drain, clean the blower wheel, replace or clean the air filter, lubricate moving parts, verify airflow and temperature split, and run a full safety and performance test. When we finish, you receive a written report with recommendations and any concerns we uncovered.
How often should I schedule an air-conditioning tune-up in Whitwell?
For most homes we recommend one professional tune-up every year, ideally in early spring before you rely on the AC 24/7. Our humid Tennessee summers put long run times on compressors and fans, so annual maintenance keeps efficiency high and helps catch small issues before they turn into costly repairs. (Your heating system needs its own tune-up in the fall.)
Can a tune-up really lower my utility bills during Whitwell’s hot summers?
Absolutely. Dust-covered coils, loose electrical connections, and low refrigerant can drop your system’s seasonal efficiency by 5–15 %. During a tune-up we restore optimal airflow and heat transfer, which reduces run time and amp draw. Many customers notice the AC cycles less often and their electric bills drop immediately—sometimes enough to pay for the service within the same cooling season.
Will a precision tune-up keep my manufacturer’s warranty valid?
Yes. Nearly every air-conditioner warranty states that the equipment must receive routine professional maintenance to remain in force. When we perform your tune-up we document all readings and hand you (or upload) a record you can present if a warranty claim is ever needed. Skipping yearly service can give manufacturers grounds to deny coverage on expensive parts like compressors or evaporator coils.
How long does an AC precision tune-up take, and do I have to be home?
Most visits take 60–90 minutes per unit. We ask that an adult be home to let our technician in, review findings, and approve any additional work. If you can’t stay the whole time, we can lock up when we’re done and send digital reports, photos, and payment links for your convenience. We always respect your schedule and keep you informed of our arrival window via text or call.
Why should I choose your Whitwell technicians for my air-conditioning tune-up?
We’re locally owned, fully licensed and insured, and our EPA-certified techs live right here in the Sequatchie Valley, so we understand Whitwell’s climate challenges. You’ll get transparent pricing, a 100 % satisfaction guarantee, and priority scheduling if you ever need repairs. We also follow all current ACCA and manufacturer maintenance guidelines, giving you peace of mind that your system is cared for exactly as the factory intended.
