1-800-Plumber +Air of Pearland, Texas | AC Maintenance in Pearland

Here in Pearland, the summers can be very long and hot, with highs of over 90 degrees. Not to mention, summers can be very muggy as well, which can make it feel even more unbearable.

And the winters? Well, you can still get temperatures of over 70 degrees in some cases!

For these reasons, you want to make sure your AC unit is in tip-top shape, no matter what time of the year it is. This is entirely possible if you keep up with maintenance.

To learn more about air conditioner maintenance schedule in Pearland, TX, and other related subjects, read on. We're here to explain everything in detail for you!

Why Is Air Conditioner Maintenance Important?

First of all, why should you even bother with air conditioner maintenance? After all, if it's running fine, it should stay fine, right?

However, if you don't keep up with maintenance, you'll probably find yourself in trouble. And these issues will have been easily preventable by keeping up with a regular air conditioner maintenance schedule (more on this later).

For one, not all AC problems are immediately noticeable. By the time you do notice them, they might've turned into much bigger (and more expensive!) problems!

As a result, this can put unnecessary wear and tear on your AC unit. Two things can happen from this: either an unexpected breakdown in the hottest of weather, or worse yet, a complete breakdown since your air conditioning's lifespan was shortened prematurely.

Even if things don't break down, that extra effort your air conditioning has to put in can drive up your utility bills.

In any case, not only will you go through inconvenience, but also major unexpected costs. It's better to schedule regular AC maintenance rather than face these issues at the most inconvenient times. Spending a little bit of money is worth every bit of peace of mind you'll get.

Air Conditioner Maintenance Schedule

When it comes to AC maintenance, you should aim to have it checked at least once a year. Ideally, you want to have your air conditioner maintenance done before the hot weather arrives, so this should be around springtime.

Considering that you most likely have an HVAC system, we felt that it's important to cover the heating side of things as well. You should also have the furnace maintenance at least once a year. This should ideally be in the fall, before the cold weather arrives.

Make sure you keep up with maintenance for your HVAC system every year. Just one year's lapse in appointments can cause a complete breakdown for your air conditioner and furnace. And if not that, then you might be causing extra strain on your system.

Self Maintenance

Just because you have a professional come take a look at your air conditioner doesn't mean that's sufficient for your unit to run fine. There are some things you should do yourself during the year to ensure that your AC won't fail you when you need it the most.

The best thing you can do is keep your AC unit clean, free of debris, and with plenty of space around it. In general, it should have about 2 feet of clearance all around.

Take the time to check that your air conditioner is still on level ground and clear away things like twigs and leaves. And of course, make sure it's free of dust.

Do note that you should not open up your unit. If you feel like it's dirty on the inside, this is where a professional's touch could definitely help.

There are some other things you can do on your own, but we'll discuss those in the next section.

Air Conditioner Maintenance Checklist

By now, you're probably wondering what you need to do to perform good AC maintenance in Pearland, TX. We're here to provide you with a checklist of important items, some of which you can do yourself! As for the others, rely on HVAC experts to do it for you.

Change the Air Filter

The air filter is what keeps your AC running smoothly and efficiently. Naturally, over time, it'll get a buildup of things like dust, pollen, and other pollutants. This is why it's important that you change it out regularly.

In general, replace the air filter every 3 months; this is something easy you can do yourself. Take the filter out and look at it against some light. If no light is getting through, then it's definitely time to change it.

If there have been extreme weather conditions that have made the air quality less than desirable, then you might have to check and change the air filter more often. Homes with lots of foot traffic (due to people and pets) should also check and change more often.

Inspect the Drain

It's not uncommon to see a buildup of mold and algae in your HVAC drain. The technician will inspect and also unclog the drain if necessary.

Clean the Evaporator and Condenser Coils

Over time, dirt, dust, and other debris can accumulate on the evaporator and condenser coils. You can clean them off yourself or have an HVAC technician do it if you're not comfortable with it.

Clean the Fins

There are fins on the coils that might get bent. An HVAC expert can both straighten and clean these fins so you get maximum airflow.

Check of Overall System

A professional can check the following for you while on your property:

  • Refrigerant (amount and if there are leaks)

  • Airflow (seal any leaks that are found)

  • Control board (see if it's 100% operational)

Emanuel came out to inspect why our commode was not flushing properly. After an inspection he describer the options. Since the commode was over 40 years old we picked the option to replace the commode with a new one. He Asked several questions about what we would like and the showed us two options. We picked the one that we liked and he obtained the commode from the ware house and installed it the same afternoon.. He completed the installation and did a great clean up of the area and answered answered all of our questions. I fully recommend Emanuel and 1-800-Plumber of Pearland

Air Conditioner Maintenance Cost

Are you wondering about air conditioner maintenance costs? There's no single answer to this question, but we'll try to break it down as best as we can for you.

Typically, you'll pay anywhere between $75 to $200 for simple maintenance.

For those who want to bundle HVAC system maintenance, you can! Have an expert maintain both your AC and furnace with a service contract. This can cost anywhere between $150 to $500.

This might sound like a lot, but let's take into account the inconvenience and cost of a broken air conditioning unit. Not only will you have to suffer through some time in unbearable heat, but you'll also have to shell out anywhere between $50 to $150 per hour for an HVAC technician to come fix your problem.

You'll also have to deal with the uncertainty of your AC breaking down again, which means paying again by the hour for a repair. You're basically gambling on whether or not your air conditioning will work during the summer.

It's much better to just pay the yearly maintenance cost so you not only spend less, but also get more peace of mind.
