In Florida, the last thing you want is to have your air conditioner malfunction or completely break down when the weather is really hot. While any appliance does occasionally require repair, there is one simple thing you can do to keep air conditioner repair needs to a minimum: maintenance.
What does AC maintenance involve? Can you do it yourself? What can happen if you don’t have it done? Let’s look at that right now.
It’s important to get facts from experts rather than base your ideas on rumors and information from people who don’t have a background in the field they’re telling you about. When it comes to air conditioners, there are some pieces of misinformation that you may have heard. As experts in home cooling systems, we’d like to give you clear information so you don’t damage your AC by believing common myths.
While there are a wide array of wrong ideas, such as that air conditioning causes colds (it doesn’t—germs do), we are going to focus on those that can actually cause your air conditioner to struggle or your home to be less comfortable. So here are some facts and the problems that can be caused by believing the myths instead.
If you have an upcoming repair scheduled for your air conditioner, you may be wondering what you can do to make sure it goes smoothly. We try to make things as easy as we can from our end.

We confirm the appointment by phone and text and even include a photo of the technician so you’ll be sure you’re opening the door to the right person. While we do schedule a 1-2-hour window when your technician might arrive, we also send email and text notifications when they’re on their way, showing exactly where they’re coming from and when to expect them.
