AC Maintenance
Peace of Mind

If you’re in the Greater Austin Area, we’ve got some great news for you! But first, before we reveal it all, we have a question. When was the last time you had your AC maintenance or AC repaired?

If you can’t remember, rest assured you’re not alone. Lots of people don’t remember to do regular AC tune-ups and maintenance. With all the important things you keep track of in your daily life, maintenance on a system that’s “just fine” can be an easy one to skim over. Altruistic AC, Heating & Plumbing is here to tell you two things — why it’s actually crucial, and that we’ve got you covered.

Understanding AC Maintenance & AC Tune-Ups

To better understand the why behind regular AC maintenance, it’s easiest to relate to the way you maintain your vehicle. Think of a car that runs on the same oil for thousands of miles, or never has its brake pads checked. 

Without clean oil, the major components start struggling and those brake pads wear down to metal on metal. Similarly, postponing or skipping regular air conditioning maintenance really impacts your system’s overall performance and longevity. 

Luckily, here at Altruistic, we’re always ready to help Austin residents keep their AC systems running at peak performance. We work hard to be reliable and efficient in all things air conditioning so we can be your go-to team in the Austin area.

Long-Lasting Expert Maintenance

Proper system maintenance is essential for keeping your air conditioner running smoothly all summer long. Tune-ups are key for avoiding costly repairs and premature equipment failure. Our comprehensive tune-ups include:

  • Filter replacement — Regularly replacing air filters ensures proper airflow and prevents dust and debris buildup, improving indoor air quality.
  • Coil cleaning — Cleaning the evaporator and condenser coils helps maintain efficient heat transfer, reducing energy consumption and extending the lifespan of your system.
  • Refrigerant check — Ensuring proper refrigerant levels is essential for optimal cooling performance. Our technicians inspect and recharge refrigerant as needed to keep your system running smoothly.

Trust Altruistic AC, Heating & Plumbing for expert maintenance and repair services to keep your AC system in top condition. With our attention to detail and commitment to quality, you can enjoy reliable comfort year-round.

Our AC Tune-Up Package

When we come out for AC maintenance, we conduct a thorough examination of your air conditioner, ensuring that it’s set to run through summer without breaking down. Our maintenance package includes the following crucial touchpoints:

  • Inspecting major components such as the compressor contactor, gas lines and blower wheel to make sure they’ll run smoothly in the coming months
  • Checking the performance of all capacitors to confirm they’re performing within range, or to head off a breakdown by catching a bad capacitor early
  • Ensuring all your connections are secure so you have continuous comfort through the hottest season of the year
  • Checking the system’s refrigerant levels and for correct delta T — low refrigerant levels can be an early indicator of a larger problem and catching it early can prevent costly repairs
  • Addressing regular maintenance items like checking the air filters and drain lines, adding chlorine tablets to the drain line to help keep it clear and cleaning the condenser coil
  • Checking the evaporator and condenser coils for any build-up
  • Ensuring your system is ready to achieve its peak efficiency so you can save money on your electric bill

In this Texas heat, air conditioning systems have a knack for breaking down on the hottest day of the year — or right in the middle of your 4th of July barbeque — which no one wants. 

We want to make sure you have smooth — and cool! — sailing through all those great summer events, and regular maintenance is the way to make that happen.

We Are Experienced

All of our expert technicians are licensed and registered with TDLR, and regularly attend continuing education classes. Our techs are trained to understand all the nuanced signals from your system. We’ll detect a problem at its early stages before it turns into a bigger one that becomes harder and more costly to fix.

We Save You a Lot on Repairs and Your Electric Bill

If refrigerant levels go too low, you’re in trouble. The compressor, in this case, will burn out, and you’ll have a hefty price tag on your hands to fix it. We help you spend less on regular maintenance instead of having to experience a full-scale issue and dealing with its associated cost.

When your AC performs at optimal levels, so does your electricity! The more smoothly your AC runs, the less electricity it uses. Regular maintenance keeps your system humming, and that electric bill low!
