Importance of Regular AC Maintenance in Tampa, FL
The HVAC system is an important feature that helps maintain indoor temperatures when they are at their peak. Air conditioner parts such as filters, coils, and fins require regular maintenance for the system to work effectively with minimum energy usage.
Regular maintenance helps keep your HVAC system operational and reliable, but it can also:
- Saves energy and money through lower power bills
- Helps maintain high air quality in your home
- Increases system efficiency
- Prevents expensive repair costs
- Keeps your family safe by eliminating dirt and pathogens that build up with long-term air conditioner use
- Reduces major breakdowns and increases the HVAC system life span
- Prevents air pollution from leaking refrigerants and man-made greenhouse gases
- Helps you preserve the air conditioner’s warranty through compliance with the manufacturer’s warranty requirements
Signs Your AC System Needs Maintenance
Your air conditioner might fail you at the most inconvenient time, often on an extremely hot and humid day when you need air conditioning the most. As the Florida seasons change, it is wise to ensure that your air conditioner is in perfect shape. Here are some signs that your air conditioner needs maintenance services:
Blowing Warm Air
An air conditioner should help regulate your house temperature and not blow hot air. If your vents blow warm air, the conditioner might have restricted airflow or a bad compressor, and you will need maintenance services.
High Humidity and Bad Odor
You can gauge the air quality in your home through the scent and humidity in the house. If your air conditioner cannot regulate moisture levels and indoor air quality, you might need to call in a technician. If you’re smelling a bad odor from your HVAC system, ask for a quick diagnostic visit before the condition worsens.
Loud Noise
Most air conditioners make low-level buzz noises as they start and shut down. Loud buzzing and rattling sounds might indicate some broken parts, while loud, sudden, and unusual noises might signify greater damage. A broken air conditioner will not improve with time, and it’s important to make a service call to your technician and have it fixed.
Other common signs that you need to make that service call to your technician include:
- Water leaks
- The thermostat is not working correctly
- Little/no air blowing out of vents
- Significantly increased electricity bill
- Frequent on and off cycles
- Frozen air conditioner coil
- The air conditioner has outlived its indicated life span

Depending on the type of filter your unit uses, you may may need to replace the filters monthly or quarterly. Your 3HAC technician will recommend the best AC filters and replacement schedule for your unit.
Dust and dirt collect on the AC filters. If you don’t replace these filters, the AC unit has to work harder and run longer to make the air flow through these filters. You may also notice the quality of your air suffer – odors linger in the house and allergy sufferers may sneeze more. And filters are just one part of the AC system that needs to be checked. See our maintenance checklist for more information.
Our annual service agreement is normally $210, but we have a special offer now for 10% OFF. We also offer a one time service for $85.
The 3HAC checkup takes about 30 minutes. The 3HAC preventative maintenace takes about an hour. Both are included in the annual service agreement. See our promotional offer.
It is OK to spray water on your air conditioner’s outside unit. When you wash your car, go ahead and spray down the condenser coil as well. It will help get out any debris that is caught up in the vents and help the unit run efficiently.
The answer is, it depends. If you inspect your ductwork every year and make sure they are not leaking, you may get many more years. Call us today for an honest assessment of the condition of your ductwork.
