Frequently Asked Questions

HVAC maintenance is crucial to keeping your AC efficient and reliable. Without regular maintenance, your AC may break down more often, have a shorter lifespan, become less efficient, and cost you more in energy bills in the long run. A Harker technician can perform air conditioning unit maintenance and check for issues that you can’t detect on your own, diagnosing potential problems before they lead to breakdowns.

Common signs you should replace air conditioning include:

  • Your energy bills are higher without obvious cause
  • Your AC breaks down more often
  • Your AC is nearing the end of its lifespan (about 15 years)
  • Your AC doesn’t keep a consistent temperature in your home

Note that these issues can also be a sign of necessary repair. A Harker expert can examine your unit, determine the cause of the issue, and recommend a replacement or repair.

Air conditioning units last approximately 15 years on average with regular maintenance. Poor maintenance and upkeep can lessen your AC unit’s lifespan, requiring earlier replacement.

Air conditioners should be professionally maintained annually. A professional will examine the unit, clean the unit’s components, and diagnose any potential issues.

To maintain your unit, be sure to:

  • Clean your air filter approx. once a month to prevent dust and debris blockages.
  • Clean your unit’s indoor coil (if applicable) with a soft brush or cloth to remove dust.
  • Clean your unit’s outdoor coil by removing leaves and debris around the area. Never spray water directly on to the coil, and exercise caution if using water near any electrical equipment.
  • Clean your unit’s drain monthly to avoid clogging. Replace your air filter and clean your unit’s drain at the same time each month for added convenience.

Many components of your AC unit, including the air filter, coils, and drain, can be cleaned on your own. A professional HVAC servicer like Harker Heating and Cooling cleans complex interior components during annual maintenance.
