Time to Get Your Air Conditioner Serviced!

Monday, April 9th, 2018

The weather is still comparatively cool here in April, and you probably haven’t had much call for your air conditioner yet this year. That’s going to change, however, and by the time the first hot day arrives, you’re going to need your air conditioner to function reliably, for days on end in some cases.

But we believe that it’s better to prevent the problem from starting in the first place than to deal with it after it’s already caused a lot of damage. In order to do that, you should schedule an air conditioning servicing session now, before the temperatures get much warmer.

save-heating-costsWinter is officially here, and the new year brings with it higher heating costs as we run our systems every day to keep our homes comfortable. To a certain extent, higher monthly heating costs are inevitable in an environment like ours.
