Stay cool, save money, and avoid HVAC scams.

AC Servicing

When the summer heat kicks in, there’s one thing you can’t afford to gamble with: your air conditioner. But here’s the catch—how do you know it’s running at its best?

At ARC ELECTRIC Heating & Air Conditioning, Inc., we’ve seen it all: overpriced repairs, unnecessary replacements, and yes, outright scams. That’s why we’re here to not only fix your HVAC system but to restore your trust in the industry.

Ready to take control? Here’s the ultimate AC servicing checklist to keep your home cool, your wallet protected, and your stress level at zero.

Why you need this checklist 📝

Think of this as your AC’s survival guide. Without regular maintenance, your air conditioning system could:

  • Work harder than it needs to (hello, sky-high energy bills 💸).
  • Surprise you with expensive repairs at the worst possible moment.
  • Break down when you need it most (you know, during a heatwave 🥵).

Don’t let that happen. Use this guide to stay ahead of the game.

The Ultimate AC Servicing Checklist

1. Change the filters regularly

Dirty air filters = poor performance. It’s that simple.

  • Replace them every 1-3 months, depending on usage.
  • Pro tip: If you have pets or allergies, check them more often.

2. Check your thermostat

Your thermostat is like the brain of your AC.

  • Ensure it’s set to the right temperature (not too cold or too warm).
  • Upgrade to a programmable or smart thermostat for maximum efficiency.

3. Clean the outdoor unit

Your AC’s outdoor unit (aka condenser) can get clogged with dirt, grass, or leaves.

  • Regularly inspect it and remove debris.
  • Keep at least two feet of clearance around it.

4. Inspect vents and ducts

Blocked or leaky ducts can waste tons of energy.

  • Check for dust buildup.
  • Seal any visible leaks with duct tape or call in the pros.

5. Listen for unusual sounds

If your AC is making strange noises (like banging, hissing, or buzzing):

  • Don’t ignore it.
  • It could be a sign of a bigger issue.

6. Schedule professional maintenance

Even with regular DIY care, your AC needs expert attention.

  • We recommend scheduling a tune-up at least once a year.
  • A professional can spot issues you’d never notice on your own.
