HVAC Tune-up
An important component of ensuring that your A/C system continues to keep you and your family comfortable is routine maintenance. Having maintenance performed regularly can make your equipment last longer and run more efficiently, saving you money in the long run.
We recommend that our customers get an A/C Tune-up at least once per year, and is included when you join the Sound Comfort Club..
The benefits of routine maintenance are numerous:
- Helps keep your warranty valid.
- Equipment can last longer before needing replacement.
- Reduces the chance that your system will break down during the searing Texas summer.
- Reduces the average repair bill.
- Your comfort system will run more efficiently, keeping your energy costs down.
- Keeps the equipment cleaner, helping to prevent you from breathing the collection of dirt and dust that tends to build up in the evaporator coils.

The Sound Comfort Club
Most people wait until their A/C breaks before they call someone out to service it. While this is the most obvious time to call an expert, this approach leads to higher repair bills, higher utility bills and lower comfort levels in their home.
Just like you have to take your car in to get the oil replaced or the brakes serviced, your A/C needs care and attention as well. During the hot summer days in Texas, your A/C system may be working up to 20 hours per day.
When you join the Sound Comfort Club, you are taking a more active approach to your comfort. Not only do you enjoy numerous benefits of membership, but your utility bills, repair costs and comfort levels will thank you for it.
