Quality Comfort Home Services is your local air conditioning maintenance specialist! Our EPA certified team of air conditioning experts can take care of your AC maintenance, inspection and tune up needs! We provide expert AC tune ups that include standard maintenance and cleaning. We service all brands and models of central air conditioners throughout Cincinnati, OH and the surrounding areas.
What Your AC Tune Up Includes
To ensure that your air conditioner is both reliable and operating at peak efficiency, you’ll need to have it maintained properly. Don’t wait until something is wrong! Rather, depend on Quality Comfort Home Services and schedule an air conditioning tune up. Regular air conditioner maintenance reduces repair costs over time and helps extend equipment life. The average AC repair is $300, so a $79 cooling tune up is the more affordable option. In addition, proper cleaning of filters and coils will ensure that you’re getting the highest possible efficiency from your cooling system all spring and summer.
Our HVAC tune up is a comprehensive air conditioning service covering your entire system. We go over a multi-point checklist with your AC system that includes inspecting your filter, checking your thermostat operation, testing electrical connections, checking your blower wheel, capacitors, drain lines and more! You will receive a copy of the AC inspection report that is color-coded for easy understanding of your air conditioner’s current condition.
AC Coil Cleaning
Included in your annual AC maintenance is a standard AC coil cleaning. We will clean the condenser coil of any dust and debris that has built up over the offseason. Cleaning your air conditioner is an important part of keeping your system running smoothly. The condenser coil gets dirty in the process of cooling the refrigerant. Dirt from the air outside is pulled into the ac unit and builds up on the coil. The dirtier your air conditioner coil is, the harder it is for your system to perform. This will lead to increased energy bills and air feeling less cool inside – it eventually will also lead to a breakdown.

If your AC coil hasn’t been cleaned in multiple years, it may have caused solidification of the dirt and grime. If that’s the case, a regular cleaning won’t be able to remove the buildup, so we offer a chemical coil cleaning service on top of our regular HVAC tune up. Your service expert will show you your condenser coil and let you know if a chemical cleaning is recommended.
When to Have Maintenance
If you have never had maintenance before then we recommend having your AC maintenance completed annually in the spring before first turning on the air conditioner for the cooling season. This allows us to be there when it gets turned on for the first time and to be able to thoroughly check the system for any potential problems and proactively solve any issues. If you have kept up with annual tune ups, then having your tune up performed anytime during the cooling season is acceptable.
AC Tune Up Cost
Our AC maintenance cost is a flat rate of $79 and includes everything you’ve read about on this page. Your central AC service expert may give you recommendations on AC repairs or upgrades that are suggested, but it is your decision to proceed or deny any additional work. You can always check our website to see if we’re running any AC tune up specials currently. Remember, Total Care Club members get their heating and cooling maintenance for FREE each year!

The Benefits of AC Maintenance
Maintains Your Warranty
One reason many homeowners choose to have annual maintenance performed is to maintain their warranty. If you have a home warranty or a manufacturer’s warranty on your HVAC system, then regular maintenance is required to be performed in order to keep your protection intact. This is also the case with Quality Comfort’s comprehensive labor warranties provided on all of our AC installations. Maintaining your equipment responsibly will save you in operating costs annually and parts and labor costs that may be covered under warranty should any part of your system fail.
Extends System Life
Regular service on your air conditioner extends the life of your AC system. With air conditioners being a larger investment, you’ll want to get as many years out of it as possible!
Better Operation
If your AC isn’t quite running as well as it used to, annual service can help. Some things may need tweaked or cleaned to get your unit up and running like new again.
Lower Operating Costs
Your air conditioning system running optimally also means that it is using energy in the most efficient way possible. This means lower energy bills overall.
