Which Air Conditioning Service Plan Should I Get?

October 20, 2017

There can be some inconsistent info about air conditioning service plans. Do you need one? Is the cost worth it? What should the plan cover? Northern Comfort Inc is happy to provide some more information to eliminate confusion.

But I Have a Warranty

One of the most confusing things about air conditioning repair plans is that homeowners often believe they don’t need one because their air conditioning is under warranty. The maintenance service plan and a warrant are two very different things—and in many cases, you will need to have regular air conditioning service performed to keep your warranty in effect. These visits help ensure your air conditioner is working as it should and highlight potential problems before they become larger, and expensive, problems. A warranty usually only covers major components of an air conditioner, and does not cover labor costs, which can accumulate pretty fast. It’s vital to understand all of the details of your warranty so you comprehend 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 a variety of benefits. Properly maintained systems are more likely to operate at peak efficiency, which may help save costs on your energy bills. They also filter your home’s air better, helping to keep you healthier and your home cleaner.

Another benefit of regular maintenance is that it helps ensure your air conditioner will run correctly through its busiest season—aka when temperatures are high. The last thing you want on a warm Mankato area day is to have an emergency repair pop up.
