Williams Energy gets your AC ready for summer!

With Spring finally here, it’s time to start planning for the warmer weather to come. One thing to add to your planning is to contact Williams Energy to schedule your central air conditioning system’s annual maintenance tune-up.

Now is a great time for air conditioning maintenance. Heating season is over and air conditioning season hasn’t started yet, so our schedule is much more open and you’re more likely to get an appointment for a time and day that is most convenient for you.

Also, if any air conditioning repairs are needed, they can be done before it gets hot enough for you to need to use your air conditioning system.

By the way, an annual tune-up is included in all our air conditioning service plans. You’ll also get protection from big repair bills as many parts are covered.

Benefits of AC maintenance

Better energy efficiency. To ensure your central air conditioning runs at maximum efficiency, a yearly tune-up is essential. This not only guarantees comfort in your home, but it also saves you money on energy!

Prevent breakdowns. Not only is an annual tune-up vital for maintenance, but it also allows our service technicians to thoroughly evaluate all aspects of your air conditioning system. If any issue is spotted in advance, we can resolve it quickly and efficiently before it develops into a far more serious problem that not only leaves your home uncomfortable, but also causes an expensive repair bill.

Protect your warranty. Regular tune-ups from an HVAC professional are required by many central air conditioning manufacturers, in order to keep the warranty intact. With Williams servicing your AC system, you’ll have clear documentation of proper upkeep.

Longer life expectancy. Invest in the longevity of your central air conditioning system by scheduling a yearly tune-up. This simple act will ensure that you get maximum return on your considerable investment, allowing it to serve you for many years to come.

How to take care of your AC between tune-ups

Although a professional technician should take care of your AC’s annual tune-up, you can assist in ensuring your air conditioning system runs efficiently and smoothly. Taking the necessary steps to maintain it will save money on energy bills down the line and help prolong its life expectancy.

• Check your AC filter once a month and change as needed.
• While tending to your outdoor space, don’t forget to check on the air conditioning unit. Carefully clear away any sticks, leaves, and other litter that has accumulated around it.
• Keep anything flammable at least three feet away from the outdoor unit.
• To ensure the optimal performance and safety of your outdoor unit, be sure to prune away any landscaping that is near or around it. Doing so will give ample space for maximum efficiency.
• Test the air conditioner by running it for roughly 20 minutes. Pay close attention how it is operating, take notes, and tell the service technician what you saw and heard.
• Invest in a programmable or smart thermostat and save up to 10% on your energy cooling costs!
