Toronto Air-conditioning Service, Maintenance and Tune-ups
Save $$$ With Air Conditioners Preventive Maintenance
Regular preventive maintenance is essential for your air conditioning system to operate efficiently. Dust, filth, moisture, and microbial growth can build up on critical components such as the evaporator and condenser coils. These concerns, if ignored, can lead to decreased efficiency, component breakage, and a shorter lifespan. To ensure peak performance, it is best to plan an annual air conditioning tune-up, sometimes known as an ‘Airconditioning Service‘. The spring season, just before the summer season, is great for this service.
Investing in annual preventative maintenance is less expensive than dealing with costly air conditioning repairs later in life. It not only improves energy efficiency but also helps to avoid costly problems in the future.
If you observe any of the following symptoms: higher energy bills, restricted airflow from vents, higher indoor temperatures, frequent AC cycling, or increased indoor humidity, it is critical to schedule an air conditioning tune-up as soon as possible to avoid future difficulties.

Toronto Air-Conditioning Tune-ups- FAQ
When the summer heat peaks, a faulty air conditioning system can be frustrating and annoying. You want to make sure your air conditioning system is in good working order before the heat hits and you start sweating – so call us today for air conditioning repairs, replacement, installation, and maintenance.
Is it necessary to replace or refill the refrigerant in the air conditioning unit during tune-ups?
No, your air conditioner should never need more refrigerant because the coils containing the refrigerant are enclosed. Only a leak in the system can cause your air conditioner to run out of refrigerant. If you suspect a refrigerant leak, you should get professional assistance.
What’s the best time to schedule annual air-conditioning tune-ups?
Typically, it is recommended to schedule an air conditioning tune-up annually. The optimal time for this maintenance service is during the spring season.
We understand the importance of prompt service, which is why we prioritize same-day emergency repairs for services like furnace repairs, boiler repairs, and heat pump repairs.
How often should I have my air conditioner serviced?
The TSSA (Technical Standards and Safety Authority) recommends scheduling one maintenance and servicing session annually for your air conditioning system.
