AC Maintenance FAQs

How often should I schedule an AC tune up?

We recommend scheduling an AC tune up once a year — ideally in the spring before the hot weather hits. Annual maintenance keeps your system efficient, helps avoid breakdowns, and extends the life of your unit.

Is your maintenance work backed by a guarantee?

Yes. Every AC tune-up we perform is backed by our Legacy Guarantee — a promise built on over 60 years of experience, reliability, and a commitment to quality.

What’s included in an AC tune up?

A typical tune up includes: 

  • Checking refrigerant levels 
  • Inspecting electrical components 
  • Cleaning coils 
  • Replacing filters
  • Lubricating moving parts
  • Calibrating your thermostat

It’s a full-system check designed for long-term performance.

Can AC maintenance lower my energy bills?

Yes. A clean and well-maintained system doesn’t have to work as hard to cool your home, which means lower monthly energy usage and fewer costly repairs.

Is AC maintenance really necessary for newer systems?

Yes — even new units benefit from routine maintenance. Keeping everything clean and properly calibrated helps maintain efficiency, ensures your warranty stays valid, and catches early wear before it becomes a problem.

How long does an AC tune up take?

Most tune ups take about 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the size and condition of your system. We respect your time and always work quickly while giving your system the detailed attention it deserves.

Knowledgeable, honest, and efficient. Cory made us feel comfortable from the moment he arrived and did an excellent job servicing our water heater. He took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all of our questions, and provided outstanding customer service. Highly recommend!

As preparation for the summer heat we always have our HVAC unit serviced and inspected for any issues. After reading up on reviews, and receiving multiple quotes, we decided to go with Bud’s. The technicians found no issues and even helped me configure our Nest Thermostat. It turns out our home being older it is not equipped with a Common C-Wire. When the technicians left, our AC was blowing cold and strong. After a few days we realized water dripping and the AC going in and out. It turned out the Nest configuration was overworking the blower motor and it had gone out. I called Bud’s and asked them to come out and help us resolve the problem. Moana quickly responded and on the same day Axel showed up at our door with portable AC units while we waited for the part to come in. Although uncertain of the actual cause for the failure of the blower motor, Moana offered to cover the entire cost of the service and fortunately for us the part was still under warranty. Bud’s showed up when it mattered most and with no hesitation to show that they wanted nothing more than to help. My family and I could not be more impressed and grateful. Thank you for your efficient response and kindness you have shown our family. Highly recommend Bud’s for all your plumbing and HVAC needs.

Buds plumbing was amazing!! All staff is super friendly and easy to talk to. I was connected with Axel regarding my tankless water heater that was not working and ignitor coil needed to be replaced. Axel followed up with me like he said he would until part was received. The weekend was coming up and I was afraid I would have to wait till Monday to get hot water.. but Axel followed up with me like he said. It's nice to know you can count on someone 7 days a-week and to keep their word means a lot.

Bud’s came out on time, assessed all of the plumbing routes for the structure and isolated the leak. I have a clear path with options on how to fix it. Thank you Buds and thanks Axel!

Looking for a trustworthy, reliable, dependable, thorough, diligent, and fair, and friendly, easy to communicate with, plumbing company?
And one who cleans up after themselves.

I totally recommend - Bud's Plumbing Heating and Air.

I recently had a(nother) plumbing issue, they responded, and stayed on top of it till they came up with a solution and resolved it. Once again, II am a satisfied customer and I recommend to any and all their services.

I've used this company since 2007 (Ibought my house in 2006) for all my plumbing issues. They were recommended to me by my neighbors and others who have been long standing clients, all who continue to be more than satisfied with their work.
