AC Tune-Ups in Arden and Asheville, NC

The checklist is built around measurement, with values recorded where it matters:

• Standard one-inch air filters are replaced or cleaned, and the outdoor condenser coil is cleaned and rinsed.
• Condensate drain lines, pans, and pumps are cleaned, and the indoor evaporator coil gets a visual inspection.
• Our technician reads refrigerant pressures and temperatures and verifies proper superheat and subcooling levels.
• The air temperature drop at the evaporator coil is measured and recorded, and airflow is assessed.
• The compressor is tested, along with the switchover and reversing valve operation, and in-rush current is measured at startup.
• Start and run capacitors, contactors, and relays are examined for damage and proper output.
• Electrical voltage and amperage are measured and recorded, and each motor is tested.
• The blower motor and wheel are inspected for cleanliness, and all serviceable motors, bearings, and fans are lubricated.
• The thermostat is cleaned, leveled, tested, and calibrated; the electrical wiring is inspected and tightened; the controls for safety and operation are tested and adjusted; and the duct system gets a visual inspection.

Superheat, subcooling, temperature drop, and in-rush current each have correct ranges, and a reading that drifts from one year to the next shows a component aging before it fails. Our technicians measure and record voltage, amperage, and the air temperature drop at each visit, which builds a record of how the system is doing.

The same measurements apply to any brand, so a system someone else installed gets the same baseline readings as one we installed. Following a regular service schedule also protects your manufacturer’s warranty.

We service and repair most equipment brands, whether or not we installed the system. The Total Comfort Promise is comfort delivered, satisfaction guaranteed, and 24/7 services are available when something cannot wait.

A tune-up finding moves straight to a fix through our AC repair team, and AC installation and replacement is there when a system has reached the end of its life. Scheduling is available online and through the 24/7 website chat, as well as by phone.

Every installation comes with our Total Comfort Promise: comfort delivered, satisfaction guaranteed. We install most major air conditioning brands, so you’re never limited to one manufacturer.

The Mountain Air Membership Agreement schedules a cooling visit and a heating visit each year under one maintenance plan, with priority scheduling, reduced diagnostic fees, savings on parts, and a membership you can take with you if you move.
