An Annual Check Before the Heat Arrives

Most Gilbert homes are 10 to 30 years old, which puts a lot of air conditioners in the age range where small parts start to wear. An AC tune-up in Gilbert is the yearly visit that finds those parts while replacing them is quick and planned.

On Every Visit

  • Test the run capacitor and contactor, the two parts behind most summer no-cool calls.
  • Clean the outdoor coil so the system can shed heat.
  • Measure the refrigerant charge and tell you plainly if it shows a leak.
  • Flush the condensate drain and check the safety switch.
  • Check the filter, blower and airflow at the indoor unit.
  • Record amp draw and temperature split as a baseline for next year.

Homes With Two Systems

Larger Gilbert floor plans often use two systems. We check each one separately, because one unit working hard to cover for the other is a common reason for high bills and early failures.

When to Schedule

Book in spring before the first 100-degree week. If you have a heat pump that also heats the house, a fall visit before winter is worth adding.

What the Report Tells You

After the visit you get a short written summary: what we tested, what we cleaned, any part close to failing, and the readings we took. If something needs repair, the price is on the report and the decision is yours. Nothing is replaced without your approval.

Simple Upkeep Between Visits

Swap the filter on schedule, keep landscaping trimmed back from the condenser, and clear leaves from the top grille. If the system starts short cycling, making a new noise or leaving water near the indoor unit, call before the next scheduled visit.

Common Questions

Is a tune-up worth it on a newer system?

Yes. It keeps efficiency close to the rating and protects the warranty. New systems from Adams include three years of maintenance.

How long does it take?

About an hour for one system, longer for homes with two.
