Small tune-up, big savings: Why A/C maintenance matters
Summer in New Orleans can put your air conditioner to the test. If your system isn’t running efficiently, you could be paying more to stay comfortable while putting extra wear on your equipment.
A simple A/C tune-up can help improve performance, reduce energy use and catch small issues before they become costly repairs. That means more room in your budget for activities with family and friends, vacations, household priorities and the things that matter most.
Energy Smart makes routine maintenance more affordable with instant discounts of $150–$200 on qualifying A/C tune-ups. Eligible homeowners can take advantage of this offer every two years.
A professionally maintained system can help you:
- Lower cooling costs by improving efficiency by up to 30%.
- Enjoy more consistent comfort and improved humidity control throughout your home.
- Avoid costly breakdowns by identifying potential issues early.
- Extend the life of your current air conditioning system.
- Save $150–$200 instantly with Energy Smart.
Beyond the savings at home, using your A/C more efficiently can also help reduce strain on the electric grid during periods of peak summer heat.
Signs your A/C may need a tune-up
If any of the following sound familiar, it may be time to schedule a tune-up:
- Your home is not cooling as effectively as it once did.
- Some rooms feel noticeably warmer than others.
- Airflow from your vents seems weak.
- Your system runs longer than usual to maintain the desired temperature.
An Energy Smart trade ally contractor can evaluate your system and help determine whether a tune-up or even a new high-efficiency system is the best option for your home.
Not sure whether you need a tune-up or replacement?
If your air conditioner is nearing the end of its lifespan, a replacement may be the smarter investment. Energy Smart offers rebates of up to $500 per unit on new qualifying ENERGY STAR® certified air conditioners, helping make the upgrade more affordable.
