Mini-Split Maintenance and Tune-Up Services in Huntsville, TX

Mini-split maintenance is recommended at least once a year. For year-round use, such as cooling in Huntsville’s summer and heating in the winter, scheduling maintenance twice a year—once before each season—keeps your system performing at its best.

A professional tune-up ensures your system is clean, safe, and efficient. At Lone Star AC & Refrigeration, we include:

• Cleaning air filters, condenser coils, and blower components.
• Inspecting refrigerant levels and testing for leaks.
• Ensuring proper electrical connections and calibrating the thermostat.
• Checking airflow and removing obstructions.
• These steps guarantee your system delivers reliable performance throughout the year.

If you notice any of these signs, it’s time to schedule a professional tune-up:

• Decreased Efficiency: Your system struggles to heat or cool effectively.
• Increased Energy Bills: A sudden rise in energy costs often indicates reduced efficiency.
• Strange Noises: Rattling, buzzing, or other unusual sounds suggest mechanical issues.
• Poor Air Quality: Dusty air or musty odors may signal dirty filters or coils.
• Frequent Cycling: The system turns on and off repeatedly, indicating potential performance issues.

You can handle basic tasks to keep your system running smoothly between professional visits:

• Clean the Air Filters: Rinse or replace filters every 1-3 months to ensure optimal airflow.
• Clear Debris Around Outdoor Units: Ensure no leaves, dirt, or other obstructions block the unit.
• Monitor System Performance: Check for unusual noises, odors, or reduced airflow and report any concerns.

While these steps help, professional maintenance addresses deeper system needs that DIY care cannot.
