What to Expect

What Actually Happens During a Tune-Up

A real inspection, not a quick glance.

Electrical Components Are Tested, Not Just Visually Inspected

Capacitors and contactors can look fine visually while testing well outside normal electrical range — a proper tune-up includes actual meter testing, not just a visual check.

Capacitor microfarad ratings are measured against manufacturer specifications.
Contactor contacts are checked for pitting or burning that indicates near-failure.
Amp draw on the compressor and fan motor is measured and compared to nameplate ratings.

Why Tune-Ups Matter in Houston

What a Tune-Up Catches Before Summer

CAPACITORS

Weakening capacitors

Capacitors degrade gradually and often fail during the first heat wave of summer.

DIRTY COILS

Coil buildup

A season of dust accumulation reduces efficiency before it's ever noticed.

REFRIGERANT

Slow refrigerant loss

Small leaks are easier to catch and repair before they cause bigger problems.

DRAIN CLOGS

Algae buildup

Condensate drains accumulate algae over the off-season, ready to clog when needed most.

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a tune-up if my AC seems fine?

Yes — many issues are found before they cause noticeable symptoms, which is the whole point of preventive service.

How long does a tune-up take?

Most tune-ups take 45 minutes to an hour for a single system.

What if you find a problem during the tune-up?

We'll explain the issue and provide a written quote for repair — there's no obligation to proceed immediately.

Is a tune-up the same as maintenance plan service?

A tune-up is a single visit; maintenance plans include tune-ups twice a year plus additional benefits like priority scheduling.

When's the best time for a tune-up in Houston?

Spring, before peak summer heat, and fall, before heating season, are the two ideal times.
