Comprehensive AC Maintenance Plans for Your Comfort

Regular AC maintenance isn’t just good practice - it’s exceptionally helpful in keeping your system running efficiently. We offer routine inspection plans that can give you peace of mind. 

These are some of the key benefits of ongoing professional maintenance: 

• Energy efficiency. Summers in Durham mean constant AC use. Regular tune-ups through our Advantage Club help your system operate efficiently, reducing strain and hopefully lowering your energy bills.
• Fewer breakdowns. Maintenance helps identify minor issues before they escalate into major repairs. This is especially valuable during peak heat when service demand spikes.
• Prolonged system lifespan. Dust from nearby wooded trails or pollen surges during spring can clog your AC system. That’s why we perform thorough cleanings and preventative care to keep your system running longer.
• Clean air quality. Clean filters often mean better indoor air quality. Regular service can help trap allergens and improve your family’s health. This is especially beneficial in homes where someone may struggle with respiratory problems. 

Our preventative maintenance program is about more than keeping you cool—it’s about reducing your anxieties and worries.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I change my air filters?

We recommend checking filters every 30 to 60 days. During high-pollen spring months or peak summer usage, filters clog faster with dust and allergens, which can restrict airflow and strain your motor.

What does it mean if I see ice on my outdoor AC unit?

Ice usually indicates a refrigerant leak or severely restricted airflow. If the coils get too cold, moisture from the air freezes on contact. Turn the system off immediately and call Swift Bros to prevent compressor damage.

Why is my air conditioner making a loud screeching noise?

A high-pitched screeching sound often signals a failing fan motor bearing or a slipped blower belt. If you hear metal-on-metal grinding, shut the unit down to avoid destroying the internal components.

Can a dirty outdoor unit increase my electricity bill?

Yes. If the outdoor condenser coils are covered in dirt, grass clippings, or spider webs, the unit cannot release heat efficiently. This forces the compressor to run longer and work harder, spiking your energy costs.
