AC and heating maintenance (tune-up) in Los Angeles
A tune-up is cheaper than the breakdown it prevents. In Los Angeles, the outdoor coil collects dust and grease all year, capacitors weaken in the heat, and drains clog. One visit in spring and one before winter keeps the system efficient and catches failing parts while they are still cheap.
What a tune-up includes
Cleaning the condenser coil, checking the refrigerant charge, testing the capacitor and contactor, measuring amps on the compressor and motors, flushing the condensate drain, replacing or cleaning the filter, checking the thermostat calibration and, on furnaces, inspecting the igniter, flame sensor and heat exchanger.
What you get
A written checklist with readings, a list of anything that is wearing out, and a price for it if you want it done. No pressure — the goal is a system that gets through the season.
What the technician checks
- Condenser coil cleaning
- Refrigerant pressures
- Capacitor, contactor and amp draw
- Condensate drain flush
- Filter and blower
- Thermostat calibration
- Furnace ignition and safety controls
Price and warranty
The service call is $69 and is applied to the repair when you go ahead. After the diagnosis you get the price for parts and labor up front, and nothing is done until you approve it. Every repair carries a 90-day warranty on parts and labor; sealed-system repairs on refrigeration and HVAC carry 6 months; HVAC installations carry 1 year. Seniors and military — mention it when you book.
Questions about hvac maintenance
How often should I service my AC?
Once a year for cooling, ideally in spring; once a year for heating, before winter.
Is maintenance included in the $69 service call?
A tune-up is a scheduled service with its own price — ask the dispatcher. If a repair is found during the visit, you get the price before any work.
Do you maintain mini-splits?
Yes — coil and filter cleaning, drain service and a refrigerant check.
