Which Air Conditioning Service Plan Should I Get?

October 20, 2017

There can be some inconsistent info about air conditioning service plans. Should you get one? Is the cost worth it? What should it cover? Kilbourne Heating & AC is here to answer your questions and clear up the confusion.

But I Have a Warranty

Perhaps one of the most confusing things about air conditioning repair plans is that homeowners often assume they don’t need the repair plan because their air conditioning is under warranty. However, the warranty and a maintenance service agreement are two distinctively separate things—and in many cases, you are required to have regular air conditioning service completed to keep your warranty in effect. These services help to make sure your air conditioner is working as it should and help identify potential problems before they become major, and expensive, problems. A warranty typically only covers major components of an air conditioner, and does not cover labor costs, which can add up quickly. It’s critical to read all the details of your warranty so you know what’s covered and what isn’t.

Other Benefits of Routine Maintenance

In addition to making sure your equipment is working properly, routine maintenance has lots of other benefits. Properly maintained systems are more likely to operate at peak efficiency, which may help save costs on your energy bills. They also help better filter your home’s air, helping to keep your household healthier and your home cleaner.

That’s not all, another benefit of routine maintenance is that it helps make sure your air conditioner will run correctly through its busiest season—aka when temperatures are high. The last thing you want on a warmer Delray Beach day is to need to arrange for an emergency repair.
