It\u2019s probably too late to have it\ndone now anyway, right? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not quite! In the absence of a total system breakdown, it\u2019s\nnever actually too late to get your air conditioner tuned-up. This is truly a\ncase of \u201cit\u2019s better late than never.\u201d Plus, there are benefits to joining our\nmaintenance plan, which we\u2019ll elaborate on below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">No, it\u2019s Not Too Late!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Maintenance tune-ups are something an air conditioner needs\nto have done on an annual basis, even if it means having it done <em>in <\/em>the summertime. Yes, we have very\nchilly winters. But our hot and muggy summers are not something to contend with\u2014at\nleast, not without a fully functional air conditioning system in your home\u2014and maintenance\nhelps ensure that your AC is always ready to go, whenever hotter weather\nstrikes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Skipping Maintenance\nMeans Paying More to Cool Your Home!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s true\u2014on average, every year your air conditioner goes\nwithout maintenance, it loses about 5% of its overall efficiency. This drop off\ngets steeper over time, and you\u2019ll end up paying more than you should have to\nfor all the time you run your air conditioner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tune-Ups Help You\nAvoid Sudden AC Breakdowns<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest reason we recommend yearly tune-ups for your air\nconditioner is to prevent the system from suddenly shutting down on you during\na baking hot day. There are plenty more hot days ahead, and you want your AC\nsystem ready to get through each one of them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Maintenance Helps\nPrevent Unnecessary Repairs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you really want to spend extra money\u2014that you should be\nenjoying over summer\u2014repairing your air conditioner? The simple precaution of\nan air conditioner tune-up each year can help you avoid about 80% of the\nrepairs your system might otherwise need! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Help Your System Last\nLonger<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The average air conditioning unit is designed to last about\n10-15 years. But it simply can\u2019t make it that long without proper maintenance.\nRegular maintenance means that over the years, your air conditioner will\nexperience less wear and tear, which ultimately results in a system that will\nlast longer than one that forgoes tune-ups. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ask about Our Total Care Club Agreement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the maintenance plan you can get only through DC\nCheek.
