  Why Preventive Maintenance Is Recommended
  There are many different aspects to preventative maintenance and why it’s important for your AC systems. Some of these reasons include:
  - Dirty condenser coils increase your electrical bill.
  - Dirty evaporator coils (even with a small amount of dirt) can decrease efficiency, increase operating costs, and be a major cause of compressor failure.
  - A low or high refrigerant charge can cause compressor failure.
  - Loose belts and worn pulleys decrease airflow.
  - Improperly lubricated rotating equipment will eventually fail.
  - Algae can plug a condensation drain, which can cause expensive water damage.
  With all that could go wrong with your system, maintenance is your best chance to catch minor issues before they become major, more expensive ones.
  Cooling Maintenance FAQs
  How often should I schedule cooling maintenance?
  At Suburban HVAC, we recommend scheduling AC maintenance once a year, specifically at the beginning of spring. If you plan it in early spring, you can avoid the rush and get the best function out of your air conditioning system all summer.
  How can I improve my home's cooling efficiency and performance?
  Cooling maintenance is a key component of having an efficient cooling system. You can also improve your system’s efficiency by changing the filter every 30 to 60 days, which will promote better airflow through the system. Using a programmable or smart thermostat will help you maximize your comfort settings.
  What happens if I skip AC maintenance?
  If you skip AC maintenance, you may not notice any problems at first. However, over time, the system will start running less efficiently. You may have more breakdowns throughout the year. The system will also have a shorter life span due to skipping maintenance. The best way to get the most out of your AC is to schedule yearly maintenance.
  What maintenance can I do on my own?
  In addition to your annual AC maintenance appointment, you can do some tasks on your own. Changing your AC’s air filter, for instance, can help improve your system’s efficiency and lifespan. You can also keep the area around your outdoor unit clear of debris and brush, which will further improve efficiency.
