To ensure your air conditioning system is working as effectively and efficiently as possible, it’s essential that it is regularly maintained. Proper servicing ensures that the system is running smoothly, and that any potential problems are identified prior to peak usage periods. With UK summers getting hotter, it’s crucial that your AC is working as efficiently as possible leading into the season.

UK seasons can be unpredictable, and if your AC system doubles up as a heating unit you’ll also want to ensure that it can be relied upon during the colder months. To ensure that you’re not subject to lengthy, unscheduled downtime, regular maintenance needs to be scheduled at the optimal time for your organisation.

What time of year is best for AC maintenance and how often should they be serviced?

The best season for AC maintenance

Often, the answer to what time of year is best for AC maintenance will be spring. This is between March and May inclusive and before the weather has a chance to warm up and the worst of the winter cold is over. By servicing your AC before summer you ensure that it’s working as efficiently as possible, and that any potential issues are identified and fixed before the heavier summer usage.

Often, air conditioning systems that haven’t been serviced prior to the summer months will quickly develop issues that have gone unnoticed during periods of less frequent use. Just because a system isn’t presenting issues during lighter spring use, doesn’t mean that AC servicing and maintenance can be skipped.

A second option for maintenance

If you missed the opportunity to have your aircon serviced during spring, then autumn is another good time. The post-summer period gives you a chance to address any wear and tear that may have developed during the hotter summer months. Autumn maintenance also ensures that the system is prepared for occasional use during the winter and into the following year.

A post-summer inspection can pick up any strain or extra wear placed on your aircon’s components during the high-usage summer months. An autumn service may pick up issues such as dirty filters, worn-out parts, or refrigerant leaks.

The availability of technicians

Spring can be a quieter time for HVAC technicians, meaning that more are available to book between the peak periods. This can make it easier to schedule a convenient appointment.
