What an AC tune-up checks

An air conditioner tune-up is a checkup for the cooling system. We look at the parts that usually cause no-cooling calls, clean what is included in the standard visit, and show you anything that needs attention. The same service may also be called an AC inspection, AC checkup, or AC maintenance.

Tune-up price and Freon

We confirm the tune-up price when you book. Freon is not included. Freon should never leak out. Once it is in the system, it should stay there. If your AC is low on Freon, there is a leak. We find the leak and talk to you about the repair before adding more.

Bernie's approach

Bernie Camacho started the company more than 30 years ago. He still wants the work handled the same way: check the system and show the customer what is wrong before doing anything extra. If the refrigerant is low, we look for a leak. We do not treat a refill as routine maintenance.

AC tune-up questions

How much does an AC tune-up cost?

We confirm the tune-up price when you book. Freon is not included.

How long does an AC tune-up take?

The time depends on the system and how easy it is to reach. We can give you a better estimate when you schedule.

What if my AC is low on Freon?

If your AC is low on Freon, there is a leak. We find the leak and talk to you about the repair before adding more.

Should I schedule a tune-up if the AC is working?

Yes. A tune-up can catch wear, dirty coils, drainage problems, and weak electrical parts before the system stops cooling.
