The best time to deal with an AC problem is before summer starts. A professional tune-up from Air Control Home Services catches weak parts, cleans away desert dust and gets your system ready for months of heavy use. We have maintained air conditioners in Lake Havasu City since 1990, and we know what this climate does to them.

Why Maintenance Matters More in Lake Havasu City
Your AC may run nearly nonstop from May through September. Every hour of runtime wears on capacitors, contactors, motors and the compressor. Blowing dust coats the outdoor coil and clogs filters, forcing the system to work even harder. Most mid-summer breakdowns start as small problems a tune-up would have caught in spring.
Regular maintenance helps your system:
- Avoid breakdowns during the hottest weeks of the year
- Use less energy and lower your cooling bills
- Last longer before it needs replacement
- Keep manufacturer warranties in good standing
What Our AC Tune-Up Includes
- Clean and inspect the outdoor condenser coil
- Inspect the indoor evaporator coil
- Test capacitors, contactors and electrical connections
- Check refrigerant levels and look for leaks
- Inspect fan motors and blower operation
- Clear the condensate drain line
- Replace or check the air filter
- Test thermostat operation and system cycling
- Measure temperature split and airflow
- Review findings with you and recommend any needed repairs
When to Schedule
Spring is ideal. A tune-up in March or April gets your system ready before temperatures climb and before the summer rush fills the schedule. If your system has not been serviced in over a year, schedule now, whatever the season. Many homeowners also book a fall heating tune-up to cover the whole year.

Tips Between Tune-Ups
- Check your air filter monthly during summer. Dust and wind clog filters faster here.
- Keep two feet of clearance around the outdoor unit.
- Gently rinse dust off the outdoor coil with a garden hose, with the power off.
- If you leave for the summer, set your thermostat to a safe temperature rather than turning the system off. A smart thermostat lets you check it remotely.
