Air Conditioner Maintenance in Milwaukee

Regular maintenance is key to keeping your AC running efficiently, extending its lifespan and avoiding costly repairs. Schedule tune-ups at the beginning and end of the cooling season for optimal performance. Our two main AC services for Milwaukee homes include:

  1. Pre-Season AC Tune-Up: Get your AC ready for summer with a thorough inspection and cleaning to ensure it works efficiently when temperatures rise.
  2. End-of-Season AC Tune-Up: Winterizing your AC unit in the fall helps prevent long-term damage and prepares it for the next season.

What To Expect During An AC Tune-Up

Our technician will check refrigerant levels, inspect system components and perform a full system test to catch any potential issues early. Typically, tune-ups take about an hour, depending on the condition of your system. Additional repairs may take longer.

AC Maintenance Checklist for Milwaukee Homes

AC maintenance should be done at least once a year, ideally in the spring before the cooling season starts. This keeps your system running efficiently throughout the summer, reduces the risk of breakdowns and helps lower energy costs. Fall maintenance can also prepare your system for winter and prevent potential damage.

  • Remove debris and clean or replace the filter
  • Inspect and clean coils, fins and evaporator components
  • Test for refrigerant leaks
  • Check electrical connections and lubricate parts
  • Measure airflow and temperature
  • Clean blower motor and components

AC Maintenance FAQs

What if I skip maintenance?

Skipping maintenance leads to lower efficiency, higher energy bills and a shorter lifespan for your AC unit. It also increases the risk of costly repairs down the line.

Can I use a pressure washer on my AC unit?

No, pressure washers can damage the coil. Stick to a garden hose with a gentle spray.

Should outdoor AC units be kept in the shade?

While AC units are designed for extreme weather, avoiding obstructive plants or shrubs near the unit can improve airflow and efficiency.

How can I tell if my evaporator coil is dirty?

If airflow is weak, the evaporator coil may be dirty. Reduced airflow can lead to less efficient cooling.

Can I move my outdoor AC unit myself?

No. Moving the unit requires handling refrigerant, which can only be done by a certified technician.

My central air stopped working yesterday and I went online to try to find just the right company to call. After reading so many glowing reviews, I decided to go with Ty and Prompt Heating and I am so glad that I did! Ty had an appointment available that fit perfectly with my schedule this morning. He arrived right on time and could not have been any more polite or pleasant. He quickly assessed the problem on my fairly elderly air unit and was able to fix it immediately while answering all of my questions and concerns. There was not an ounce of pressure to fix or replace anything that was not needed and Ty reassured me that my older central air unit had some good life left in it and that I could certainly wait until a later time to replace it. When asked, he gave a very easy to understand explanation of how this unit works and some suggestions on trimming back a bit of my outside garden to make sure it was able to operate as easily as possible. I was very impressed with his knowledge, customer service, and pricing. Before he left, I asked his advice on furnace maintenance and he made a trip to my basement to look things over without trying to sell a thing - yay :) I asked what he charged for a maintenance call and found he was running a special on a full maintenance visit for just under $80 until mid October - and so I booked that service right away as well. I would not hesitate to recommend Ty and Prompt Heating to anyone! This is a good guy with a really great sense of how to run a high quality, customer friendly business. Thanks!
