Air Conditioner Spring Tune up Time!

The time is coming quickly when you will want to be certain your air conditioning equipment has been checked over and serviced. Summer in Fort Myers is an all out war for your air conditioner, and a little preventative maintenance goes a long way to keeping your equipment running effectively and at the same time with a high degree of cost efficiency. This can not happen, even over a short period of time, without proper maintenance of your HVAC equipment.

Freshly cleaned a/c coil ...Air Conditioner Spring Tune up

Air conditioner coil after cleaning! An Air Conditioner Spring Tune up will leave your equipment looking, and more importantly working, at its optimum ability.

Air conditioner maintenance is the best way to keep small problems small!

One of the most important parts of our spring tune up is to assess the condition of your condensor coils. Even a minimal amount of build up on your coils will impact the efficiency of your equipment, as well as the comfort in your home. It is fairly well known that it is extremely important to change the air filter in your home every 30 days or your air conditioner will have to work twice as hard to draw in the air before it can even begin to cool it. The same concept applies equally to the condenser coils, evaporator coils and fan blades located inside your equipment as well. Any type of obstruction in these areas is likely to minimize the level of comfort, and make your air conditioner work longer and harder.

Air conditioner service, on a regular basis, does more to prevent high electric bills than practically anything else you can do!

Regular air conditioner service is also the best way to keep your air conditioning equipment running for as long as possible as well. With proper maintenance it is entirely possible to keep your air conditioner working effectively for 20 years … or even more!

air conditioner service is the number one secret to keeping your air conditioner working for as long as possible

Proper air conditioner service kept this a/c running effectively for the span of three decades!!!

Why Regular air conditioning maintenance has NEVER been more important!

Air conditioner service and repair is, first and foremost, all about extending the life of your air conditioning equipment for as long as is reasonably practical. Yes … optimal output is important, as is energy efficiency and other factors, but, as expensive as replacing an air conditioning system is becoming there is tremendous value to only needing to replace your equipment once in 30 years as opposed to four or even five times.

Is this the end of the 30 year air conditioner?

proper maintenance helped this home owner squeeze every last nickel out of this air conditioner

Community Cooling is proud to have helped this home owner keep this air conditioner running for over 30 years!

” air conditioners … …they ain’t making them like they used to!

Not so long ago virtually all HVAC equipment manufacturers had factories right here in the United States, and forged their products with high quality, durable materials, employing a workforce that took pride in being part of a brand name synonymous with quality. The air conditioners of today … not so much! There is a very good chance that the toughest, most durable piece of air conditioning equipment you are ever going to own … for the rest of your life … is the air conditioner running outside of your home right now! You definitely want to consider doing everything you can to keep it going, and that means regular maintenance.

We can help!

Regular air conditioner service is, far and away, the very best way to keep your a/c working at optimum output, as inexpensively as possible. Additionally, proper servicing also ensures optimal comfort levels as well. The best air conditioner in the world can’t perform properly if it is clogged with dirt and dust, or if component parts of the system are showing signs of wear individually. On the average, an air conditioner that is serviced at least once a year (we recommend twice a year … because it is that important) will outperform it’s un-serviced counterpart in terms of efficiency, economy, and years of service!

Dirty a/c coils badly in need of cleaning.

Community Cooling and Heating is offering a 16 point cooling system check which includes:

Clean your condenser coils.

Air Conditioner Efficiency Begins With Proper Maintenance

Well serviced air conditioners, work better, cost less, and last longer!

Air conditioner efficiency is impossible with restricted air flow due to dirt, dust, and vegetative growths. Air conditioning units that haven’t been properly serviced and maintained will cost you more to run, and provide less cooling! Over the course of time, even in the cleanest of homes, dirt, dust, mold, and other impurities build up on your condenser coils inside your a/c unit. The build up of these impurities make it extremely difficult for you air conditioner to circulate air throughout the coils and your home.

REALLY dirty air conditioner has probably cost the homeowner filter has probably cost the homeowner big bucks month after month on his utility bill!

REALLY dirty air conditioner filter!

“… air conditioner efficiency is directly tied to how well maintained the unit is …”

Dirty, blocked up air conditioner filters lower the energy efficiency of the air conditioner, generally raising the over all cost of running that piece of equipment. The energy that is thus wasted will pollute the environment and add to the greenhouse gas emissions, further compounding the problem of global warming. Moreover, clogged air filters will cause the unit to pull more energy while delivering less cooling and shorten the expected lifespan of the air conditioner as well.

Community Cooling and Heating has always been an advocate of addressing minor air conditioner issues before they can evolve into major problems. There is nothing that a home owner, or a property manager, can do to get the most life, and the highest level of performance from their air conditioning equipment than to have it serviced regularly by a licensed air conditioning contractor.

Regular air conditioning service and maintenance prevents a small blockage in a drain line …

A blockage in your drain can lead to anything from your air conditioner shutting down … to a major water problem inside your home.

… to major water damage inside your home.

A blocked drain line caused the drain pan to overflow, causing extensive, costly repairs.

What The News Press Had To Say About Us

TELL MEL ____________________________________________________- tellmel@newspress.com _____________________________________________________- Second opinion needed for AC fix _____________________________________________________ I don't usually do two air conditioning columns in a week, but Monday's column touched a nerve. So I thought I'd pass along some of the stories I've heard from AC company owners who have called. The first story comes courtesy of Kurt Hartmann of Community Cooling in Fort Myers. Hartmann gives free second opinions on other companies repair or replacement estimates. Recently, a woman who lives in a North Fort Myers mobile home park called him after another AC company had come to look at her unit. Several weeks earlier the woman had installed a thermostat and the AC worked fine. But when the weather turned cold, and she tried to get it to heat, the unit wouldn't work. She called a company, which will remain nameless. The technician removed the cover on the thermostat, examined it, and then went to look at the unit. His diagnosis: She needed a new relay and transformer. Total $2,300. Fortunately, the homeowner decided to brave the cold for a day and get a second opinion. Her unit was only six years old and she couldn't believe it needed such an expensive repair. When Hartmann's guy arrived, he too popped the cover off the thermostat. There he saw a switch with two positions for the heat - gas and electric. This thermostat had the switch in the position for gas, but she, like most people in Southwest Florida has an electric unit. When the thermostat was switched to the electric mode, the heater "worked like a champ" Hartmann said.
