AC Maintenance & Tune-Ups around Lake Charles

Lake Charles systems benefit from coil rinsing, drain flushing and an electrical check before summer, and an inspection after any major storm. Ask about mold prevention in ductwork if the home was closed up without power after a storm.

Signs you may need ac maintenance & tune-ups

  • It's been more than a year since the last professional service
  • Airflow seems weaker than it used to
  • The drain line has clogged before
  • The outdoor coil looks dirty or matted
  • You're heading into the peak cooling season

What to expect from the visit

A typical tune-up includes checking the thermostat, inspecting and cleaning coils, testing capacitors and contactors, tightening electrical connections, checking refrigerant pressures, flushing the condensate drain and replacing or checking the filter. Ask for a written checklist of what was done and anything that needs attention.

Before you call

Between visits: check the filter monthly during heavy use, keep two feet of clearance around the outdoor unit, rinse loose debris off the outdoor coil gently with a garden hose (power off first), and pour a cup of white vinegar into the drain access if your contractor recommends it.
