A small, quaint Florida town, Green Cove Springs sits along the St. Johns River. The city is known for its lush, green scenery, peaceful atmosphere, and natural sulfur springs. If you’re a homeowner or business owner in this area, you need AC maintenance in Green Cove Springs, FL, to keep you comfortably cool all year long. 

At Southern Heating & Cooling, we love serving the Green Cove Springs community with reliable AC services. We know that summer high temperatures average over 90 degrees, and going even a single day without a functioning air conditioner can be seriously uncomfortable.

Through our AC maintenance services, we’ll keep your system in the best shape so that you can prevent unexpected breakdowns. Contact us today at 386-222-1342 to schedule a service. 

Why Is Regular Maintenance Important for Your AC Unit in Green Cove Springs, FL?

Many homeowners don’t pay their air conditioners much attention until something goes wrong. But the best way to take care of your AC unit is to inspect and maintain it now — before a malfunction occurs.

By scheduling yearly maintenance with an HVAC professional, you can:

  • Catch potential problems: Instead of waiting until your system unexpectedly stops working, you can address issues before they become serious. 
  • Avoid costly repairs: Fixing minor issues costs much less than replacing entire parts. 
  • Keep your AC working reliably: You won’t need to worry about your AC unexpectedly breaking down on one of the hottest days of the summer. 
  • Lower your energy bills: Regular maintenance allows your system to run smoothly and efficiently, keeping your energy bills as low as possible. 
  • Extend the lifespan of your AC system: Keeping your system clean and lubricated and addressing issues early on helps you get the most life out of your system. 
  • Improve your air quality: Cleaning and removing contaminants from filters allows cleaner air to circulate throughout your home. 

Through AC maintenance in Green Cove Springs, FL, you can get the most out of your AC unit and save money in the long run. 

Our Air Conditioner Maintenance Checklist & Tune-Up Process

When you schedule air conditioner maintenance with Southern Air Heating & Cooling, we follow a thorough cleaning, inspection, and maintenance checklist. We’ll evaluate every component that makes up your cooling system, look for signs of trouble, and clean and lubricate all relevant parts to improve your system’s functioning. 

Our AC maintenance checklist includes these tasks:

  • Replace the filter
  • Clean the condenser coils
  • Clean the drains
  • Check and adjust the refrigerant levels
  • Inspect and tighten all electrical components
  • Calibrate the thermostat 
  • Ensure that the AC unit is level
  • Inspect ductwork 
  • Inspect and clean the condensate drain line
  • Run a full cycle of the AC and check for potential problems

If we find any issues during our inspection, we’ll discuss them with you and recommend appropriate repairs. We can complete small repairs on the same day, but we may return at a later date to perform more significant services. 

After completing our maintenance checklist, you’ll feel confident in the smooth performance of your AC for the year ahead. 

When To Schedule AC Maintenance in Green Cove Springs, FL 

If you live in Green Cove Springs, you probably use your AC system almost year-round. So you may be unsure of the best time of year to schedule AC maintenance. 

We typically recommend scheduling AC maintenance in the spring, before your unit needs to start working harder to keep your home cool in balmy summer temperatures. But if you haven’t serviced your AC in a while, scheduling maintenance now instead of waiting for spring may be worthwhile. 

We suggest scheduling annual maintenance. We’ll give you a call about a year after your first maintenance appointment to schedule your next one.

This review is for your technician Justin Coates. He has completed the last two scheduled inspections on our new a/c unit. Both times he delivered a very thorough check up and this time corrected a fan speed issue and adjusted the super heat.
We are very pleased with his work.
I am a retired a/c technician and I appreciate his attention to detail.

Jamar checked the air handler as it was making a strange noise. He said it most likely was doing that because the air filter was very dirty. I changed the filter last night & we could not hear it anymore. While he was here, he checked the system out & all was running ok!
Response from the owner:Louise, thanks for taking the time to share this. I’m glad Jamar was able to pinpoint the likely cause and that changing the filter solved the noise right away. We appreciate you choosing Southern Air, and it’s great to hear everything else checked out and is running well.

    He was here for a couple of hours troubleshooting my AC as to why it wasn’t communicating with my Thermostat. He was on hold with the Lenex Technical Support and never got them to answer back. Another tech suggested a work around to test system and it worked. Got us a working unit until they could replace the wiring going to the electronics. Just a standard service call price.
    Response from the owner:Richard we apologize for the inconvenience but appreciate your patience and understanding. We are diligently working with the manufacturer to get this resolved for you as soon as we can. Thank You!
