As specialists in AC repair in Lincoln Park and other areas of Chicagoland, we know that regular professional maintenance is an important part of having an HVAC system. Over time, dust and worn parts lower the efficiency of your system and increase the risk of problems. Scheduling regular preventative maintenance for your HVAC system can improve the lifetime of your unit up to 48% and prevent yearly losses of up to 15% in cooling and heating efficiency.
If those figures aren’t enough to persuade you to have your AC professionally inspected, we’ll give you two more reasons: saving money and saving money. First, you’ll save money by increasing the chances that one of Deljo’s NATE certified technicians will catch small problems before they become big ones. For example, repairing a refrigerant leak isn’t terribly expensive, but replacing a compressor that’s died from lack of refrigerant can cost thousands. And second, you’ll save money by ensuring that your system is operating at maximum capacity, using less energy and costing less to cool your house.
