We all know how long, hot, and humid Virginia summers can be, and the last thing you want is an air conditioning system that is straining and working overtime to keep you cool.

Thanks to the TRANE-certified technicians at MSCO Heating & Cooling, that’s not a problem. Our cooling experts can give your system a thorough diagnostic to make sure it runs smoothly and efficiently until Fall weather finally brings us some relief!

What is a Spring AC Tune-up?

When you contact MSCO for a spring tune-up, one of our expert HVAC technicians will do the following to keep your system running efficiently throughout the summer.

  • Check the pressure of your refrigerant and check for any visual refrigerant leaks.
  • Make sure all electrical connections are tight and components are working properly.
  • Check the start and run capacitor for any unusual rusting, or bulging and check that it’s working within the manufacturer’s recommended specifications.
  • Clean and check the outdoor unit, including the condenser coil, cleaning out any dirt, leaves and debris.
  • Clean the indoor evaporator coil and check for any unusual rusting or blockage.
  • Clean and adjust blower components and check airflow static pressure.
  • Clear and check the condensate for proper drainage.
  • Check the air filter and replace it if needed.

Our technicians can perform these services not just on the air conditioning units we sell but on all makes and models of AC units as well.

Benefits of a Spring Tune-up

In case you’re a little uncertain about needing this service, here are some of the benefits of having a spring tune-up and regular maintenance before the worst of Virginia’s summer heat arrives.

Increased efficiency and decreasing utility costs

A spring tune-up means your system will be operating at its maximum level of efficiency, and that will mean lower energy bills as your system will not have to work as hard to keep your home cool and comfortable.

Fewer repair bills

An AC system regularly checked and maintained by MSCO’s cooling professionals saves wear and tear on the unit, making it less likely to break down, leaving more of your hard-earned dollars in your pocket. During our AC unit tune-up, our technician will recommend any minor repairs that may be needed. At MCSO, we believe it’s much better to be proactive and correct the small issues before they become major problems in the future!

Longer lifespan for your system

Just like your car, your AC system needs professional maintenance to extend its lifetime. Professionally maintained with annual spring tune-ups, your AC should last a good 15 years.

Good for the environment

Getting your system tuned up not only saves on your utility bills. Lowering your energy usage also reduces your carbon footprint, and that’s good for the environment and good for all of us.

Improved comfort

Professional maintenance helps ensure that every room in your home is evenly and efficiently cooled.

Peace of mind

A spring tune-up means that you, the homeowner, have done everything you can to keep your AC running smoothly and efficiently throughout the summer. And during our long Virginia summer, if anything should go wrong, the experts at MSCO Heating & Cooling are always ready to assist you.
