Prevent Emergency AC Repairs With a Simple Seasonal Checkup

Air conditioners work hard in Oklahoma’s long summers, and without preventive care, wear and tear adds up fast. Dirty coils, low refrigerant, clogged drains, and worn parts can all cause your system to run harder, use more electricity, and wear out faster. Many breakdowns we fix in July could’ve been avoided with a spring tune-up.

What can go wrong without maintenance:

  • Frozen evaporator coils
  • Compressor overheating and failure
  • Refrigerant leaks or low charge
  • Clogged condensate drains and water leaks
  • Poor airflow due to dirty filters or fan issues
  • Electrical problems (relays, capacitors, fuses)
  • Loud operation or vibrations
  • Inconsistent cooling across rooms
  • System short cycling or failure to start
  • Reduced energy efficiency and high utility bills
More than a quick once-over—this is professional, top-to-bottom maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions

About Air Conditioner Maintenance

  • How often should I schedule AC maintenance in Oklahoma City?

    We recommend having your air conditioner professionally serviced once a year, ideally in early spring before the summer heat ramps up. For best results, pair it with a fall heating tune-up as part of our Cap & Discount program.

  • Is AC maintenance really necessary for newer systems?

    Yes. Even new air conditioners need regular service to stay efficient, safe, and within warranty guidelines. Skipping annual maintenance can lead to early wear and voided warranty coverage from the manufacturer.

  • How long does a typical AC tune-up take?

    Most tune-ups take about 60–90 minutes, depending on the system's condition. We’ll never rush the process—our goal is to catch anything that could cause trouble later.

  • Do you offer maintenance plans in OKC?

    Yes. Our Cap & Discount Program gives you two annual tune-ups, discounts on repairs, priority scheduling, and peace of mind all year. It's the best way to protect your investment and save on service.

  • What’s the best time of year to schedule AC service in Oklahoma?

    We recommend scheduling maintenance in March or April, before temperatures rise. That gives you time to catch and fix any issues well before your system is under full load in summer.
