How Much Do AC Tune-Ups Cost?
At Reliable, we offer AC Tune-Ups for only $89.99 for the first system and $79.99 for all additional systems.
Reliable provides service to the entire Metro Atlanta area from our three locations in Kennesaw, Fayetteville & Grayson, Georgia . We can come out to your home for a pre-season Tune-Up or you can choose to enroll in our annual Reliable Protection Plan which covers future repair costs and includes and annual heating and cooling tune-up.
A properly maintained HVAC system will use 20-30% less energy than a system that has not been maintained making HVAC Tune-Ups a great investment for homeowners. In the long-run these Tune-Up costs will typically be offset by the reduction in energy costs and expensive repair bills. Here at Reliable, we work on countless systems that are 20+ years old, and we find that those systems are typically ones that receive annual maintenance.
It's true that AC systems often break down on the hottest days of the year leaving homes sweltering until a local technician can get out to the home to assess the repair. Those days are typically the busiest time of the year for HVAC companies, meaning that it can sometimes be difficult to get a technician to your home right away. There's no need to wait for your system to break down before you call in your local technician. Just like a car, all systems need regular maintenance to keep them functioning at peak performance!
Plenty of companies offer inexpensive AC Tune-Ups, but their goal is often to come out to your home and spend 20 minutes looking for anything wrong with your system so they can upsell you expensive parts. At Reliable, our HVAC Tune-Ups typically last 60-90 minutes and include 15 separate procedures to clean and inspect the unit. Sometimes we do find problems, but what we're trying to do is prevent them, which is why our Tune-Up and Maintenance plans have become so popular with our customers.
