The Visit
What Happens During an AC Tune-Up
A tune-up is a single, thorough visit rather than an ongoing plan.
Refrigerant & Leak Check
Check refrigerant levels and look for early signs of a slow leak.
Condenser Coil Cleaning
A dirty coil is one of the most common reasons a system loses cooling capacity heading into summer.
Capacitor & Contactor Test
Two of the electrical parts most likely to fail under heavy summer use.
Drain Line Inspection
Inspect the condensate drain line and clear any early buildup before it turns into a full clog.
Filter & Airflow Check
Restricted airflow forces the whole system to work harder.
Thermostat & Connections
Test thermostat accuracy and tighten electrical connections that loosen over a year of vibration.
Timing Matters
Why Spring Is the Best Time for a Tune-Up
Waiting until the first hot week of summer to check your AC means competing with every other homeowner in Brazoria County for a repair appointment, often after something has already failed. A spring tune-up catches a weak capacitor or a coil that needs cleaning while it's still a simple fix, not an emergency.
Before Hurricane Season
It's also a smart step to take before hurricane season begins in June, since a system that's already been checked and tightened up is in better shape to handle a power surge or storm-related stress.
