Your air conditioner works hard on Portland's hot summer days. Regular AC maintenance keeps it running when you need it most. For over 100 years, Sunset Heating, Cooling, & Electrical has helped local families stay cool. Our skilled techs clean, test, and adjust your system so it runs efficiently and lasts longer. We serve homes across the Portland area, from older bungalows to newer builds.
An annual AC tune up is the best way to avoid a breakdown in the middle of a heat wave. It also helps lower your energy bills and keeps your home comfortable all season.
What Happens During an AC Tune Up
Our AC tune up is a multi-point inspection and cleaning. We tailor each visit to your equipment. Here is what we check and clean.
- Indoor and outdoor units: We clean and inspect both units.
- Thermostat: We calibrate it so your home stays at the right temperature.
- Ductwork: We examine your ducts and look for leaks.
- Coils: We clean the coils for better airflow and cooling.
- Filter: We change the filter to improve airflow and air quality.
- Refrigerant: We check refrigerant levels and connections.
- Electrical and safety: We test the wiring, controls, and safety features.
- System operation: We run the system and test how well it cools.
If we find a problem, we explain it in plain words before we fix anything. Many issues stay small when we catch them early. If your system needs more than a tune up, our AC repair team can take care of it.
Signs Your AC Needs a Tune Up
Every AC system needs maintenance once a year. But some signs mean your system needs attention soon. Watch for these.
- Your AC takes longer to cool your home.
- Your energy bills are higher than last summer.
- You hear new noises when the system runs.
- Some rooms feel warmer than others.
- The air from your vents feels weak.
- You can't remember your last tune up.
If any of these sound familiar, schedule a visit. A quick tune up can bring back lost cooling power.
