AC Maintenance in Greater Boston & the South Shore
The best way to avoid an AC breakdown on the hottest day of the year is a yearly tune-up. Trust 1 Heating, Cooling & Plumbing maintains central air conditioners for homes across Greater Boston and the South Shore.
We recommend scheduling AC maintenance once a year, ideally before the cooling season starts.

Our 18-Point AC Tune-Up
Every Trust 1 AC maintenance visit includes:
- Check the condenser coil
- Check the evaporator coil
- Check the blower motor
- Check the refrigerant charge
- Lubricate motors, bearings and fans (if applicable)
- Check and tighten all electrical connections
- Check temperatures and pressures
- Check the thermostat for proper operation
- Test and label emergency shutoffs
- Check controls and safety devices
- Check capacitors
- Check the condensate drain
- Check relays and contactors
- Check ductwork for leaks (if applicable)
- Check amperage and voltage
- Start and test the system through a full cycle
- Check airflow
- Check the humidifier or dehumidifier
Why AC Maintenance Matters
- Fewer breakdowns: worn parts and small problems get caught before they leave you without cooling.
- Lower energy bills: a clean, well-tuned system uses less energy to cool your home.
- Longer system life: regular care helps your equipment last.
Signs Your AC Needs Attention
- Weak or warm airflow from your vents
- The system runs constantly or turns on and off over and over
- Ice on the refrigerant lines or indoor coil
- Water around your indoor unit
- Higher energy bills without a change in use
If you notice any of these, you may need a repair instead of a tune-up.
How Often Should You Schedule AC Maintenance?
Once a year, ideally before the cooling season starts. Between visits, change your air filter regularly and keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves and debris.
