What’s Included in an Air Conditioner Tune-Up?
We go well beyond the basic “clean and check.” Our AC maintenance service is thorough, and it works on every central air conditioner make and model:
- Clean the condenser and evaporator coils so the system can shed heat properly
- Check refrigerant levels and pressures and look for early signs of a leak
- Test electrical connections, contactors, and the start capacitor
- Replace or clean the air filter and clear the condensate drain
- Inspect and lubricate moving parts, belts, and hoses
- Verify the system cycles on and off correctly and calibrate the thermostat
- Measure the temperature split and airflow to confirm the unit is cooling at spec
How often should you service your air conditioner? Once a year, ideally in spring before the first heat wave. Annual maintenance keeps efficiency high, catches small faults early, and is required to keep most manufacturer warranties valid. If we find a problem, we’ll explain it plainly and walk you through the options before doing any work.
We also handle AC repair, AC installation and replacement, ductless cooling and mini-splits, heat pumps, smart thermostats, and indoor air quality.

With us, you don’t have to remember when your air conditioner was last serviced, what brand or model you have, or whether the warranty still covers a part. We keep those details in your file, so every visit picks up where the last one left off instead of starting from scratch.
The easiest way to never miss a tune-up is the Comfort Care Plan, our maintenance membership. It schedules your heating and cooling tune-ups automatically, gives you priority scheduling, and includes discounts on repairs along with other plan benefits. And because we handle cooling, heating, plumbing, and electrical, one team can cover everything on one schedule and one invoice. Flathead Valley summers bring stretches of dry heat and wildfire smoke, so clean coils and a fresh filter do more for comfort and air quality here than in milder climates. A neglected system quietly costs you money in lost efficiency, surprise breakdowns, and a shorter equipment lifespan, and most of those breakdowns trace back to a small fault a tune-up would have caught.
What Your Flathead Valley Neighbors Are Saying
Recent Maintenance Work Across the Valley
Our cooling team tunes up every kind of home in the Flathead, from Whitefish lakefront properties to Polson seasonal cabins to Kalispell historic homes.
- Spring AC tune-up, Kalispell. Found a weak run capacitor reading below spec and replaced it on the spot, heading off a likely mid-summer failure.
- Coil cleaning and efficiency check, Whitefish. Years of dust and pollen on the coils had cut cooling output. A full cleaning restored airflow and dropped the homeowner’s cooling bills.
- Comfort Care member visit, Bigfork. Scheduled cooling tune-up caught a slow refrigerant leak early, so it was a small repair instead of a summer emergency.
