The Benefits of Regular AC Maintenance
While many homeowners always aim to cut down on costs and save, AC maintenance and tune-ups are one exceptional way to save money in the long run. How? AC maintenance offers tons of benefits include:
- Improved Energy Savings: Your air conditioner is one of the largest consumers of energy in your home. When it's working at its best, that can translate into significant monthly savings based on utilities.
- Extended Appliance Life: The average lifespan of an air conditioner is anywhere from 12 to 15-years. Without regular AC maintenance that timeframe can be cut down significantly. When you opt for regular care, you can also increase the timespan as well.
- Fewer Repairs: No one wants to pay for monthly AC repairs. Not only is it expensive, but at some point, the cost for repairs can outpace the cost of a replacement! Better maintenance means more savings for you and your family.
At Barker Heating & Cooling we offer quality maintenance solutions. Whether you schedule them annually or quarterly, you can count on our staff to keep your home comfortable and your air conditioner supported.
When Should You Consider an Air Conditioner Replacement
A new air conditioner can be a large expense for any homeowner, but in some instances, air conditioning replacement is your best option. Consider a new installation if:
- The indoor air quality is poor
- Your system is not large enough to cool your home
- Installation was completed over 15-years ago
- Repair needs are more frequent
With a new air conditioner installation, you can enjoy quality cooling for a lot less. Additionally, a new air conditioner can add significant value to your home, which is a great option for homeowners looking to rent or sell in the near future.

Found a popped 10amp fuse on the condenser disconnect, unit calls for 25amp fuses. Replaced fuses. The client also showed me a remote for their other unit that looks to have been damaged and they wanted it replaced, talked with bill and made a replacement estimate for it. Connected new remote and adjusted time, cycled unit.

Unit is operating within all manufactured ranges, amps in range, the capacitor in range, refrigerant pressures in range, temp split 18 degrees. IWave is fully functional, clients air filters were last changed in October of 2021 and still look new, changed anyways. Let the client know that we could install surge protection for this unit.Performed a 20-point complete precision tune-up on the A/C unit Perform safety inspection on the water heater Perform a safety check on smoke detectors & CO detectors Cleaned air filter, condensate drain, and vacuum condenser coil.
