AC & Heating Maintenance in Austin, TX
Preventative maintenance can help you get the most out of your heating and cooling system and extend its service life. Non-maintained systems work harder, use more energy and fail sooner than properly maintained systems. Not to mention, regular maintenance is a requirement by manufacturers for most equipment warranties. Homeowners looking for AC maintenance in Austin know they can count on ABC Home & Commercial Services. Our reliable, friendly technicians can address small issues before they turn into big headaches.
ABC’s proactive maintenance plan is called our Advantage Maintenance Plan 500, or AMP500, for short. To get the most lifespan and efficiency out of your system, our AMP 500 will entitle you to 2 precision tune-ups per year. One is a ‘summer-focused’ tune-up, which is done to help ensure your air conditioning system is fully prepared for the high summer temperatures. The second is a ‘winter-focused’ tune-up, which is performed to ensure your heating system is working properly before the temperatures drop.
Other major advantages of the AMP500 include:
Priority Scheduling
You receive priority status for all service calls. When your home has an issue, you want it to be addressed as soon as possible. Jump in front of all non-AMP customers in the queue for service.
Replacement Credit Advantage*
Each year, half of your annual AMP subscription cost will be credited to a reserve account to be applied toward your next full AC system replacement. ABC will also contribute an additional $500 to your reserve account upon your first AMP renewal. Your reserve credit is even fully transferable if you sell your home!
Discount on Repairs
All AMP customers get 10% off the cost of all AC, Electrical, Plumbing, and Appliance Repair service work (maximum discount of $50.00).
10% “Easy Pay” Discount
A 10% discount is offered on your AMP500 subscription when you choose monthly billing.
*If you cancel your Advantage Maintenance Program agreement, any accrued AMP replacement reserve credit will be forfeited.
The ABC Process
1. Contact ABC
When you contact us, we will schedule a service call to conduct a diagnostic on your heating and cooling system.
2. Perform Maintenance
We'll go over a checklist of items to make sure all parts of your heating and cooling system are working properly.
3. Follow-Up
We will update you on the work we performed and let you know of any recommended follow-up services.
4. Schedule Next Tune-Up
We’ll make sure routine maintenance is performed at manufacturer-recommended intervals by scheduling your next appointment.
80% of air-conditioning service repairs occur on non-maintained equipment. To proactively avoid costly repairs and inconvenient breakdowns, regular preventative maintenance is needed to keep your air conditioning system running at peak performance.
AC & heating systems operate an average of 3,000 to 4,000 hours a year in Texas. To put this into perspective, a vehicle driven for 3,500 miles at 65MPH would travel over 225,000 miles. Similar to your family vehicle, servicing your air conditioning system regularly helps keep it functioning properly and efficiently.
You wouldn’t tell someone to avoid changing the oil in their car, would you? Well, the same goes for your AC system!
