What are some of the services provided during a VIP Tune up?
-
Examination/Replacement of air filters - Clean air filters improve the efficiency of your system and improve the quality of air circulating through your home or place of business.
-
A thorough examination of system components including coils and contactors - Over time, coils may become dirt incrusted. Dirty coils cause a cooling system to work less efficiently. A unit with dirty coils uses more electricity, cools less effectively, and places undo stress on the compressor. Likewise, burned contactors compromise the efficiency of a cooling system and can cause damage to the compressor. An annual inspection allows a technician to identify dirty coils and burned out contactors before they cause long term damage to your system. It is much cheaper to have your coils cleaned or your contactors replaced than it is to replace a compressor.
-
Cleaning and treatment of condensation lines - Clogged condensation lines and drain lines can cause water (moisture accumulated by your air conditioning system) to leak through your ceilings or walls. Our cooling inspection also includes an algaecide treatment to reduce the growth of algae and bacteria which can clog your drain lines.
-
Examination of electric components - Worn electrical components can create a fire hazard or can cause your unit to unexpectedly break down.
-
Safety checks including components to could cause a future safety issue including fire hazards and carbon monoxide leaks.
-
Checking and testing of all items involving any water and possible leaks. Drain pans, float switches and so on all need to be checked to avoid a leak in your ceiling or worse.
-
Pictures! Griffin Air will take pictures of components during system checkups. What you can't see without climbing, squeezing, taking apart, etc. Griffin Air will show you!
