A/C maintenance and drain cleaning in South Florida
In South Florida the A/C runs almost all year, and the humidity fills drain lines with algae and sludge. Regular maintenance keeps the system cooling, keeps your power bill down, and prevents the two calls nobody wants: no cooling on a hot day and water through the ceiling.
What a maintenance visit covers
- Drain line flush and drain pan cleaning
- Float/safety switch test
- Coil and blower inspection
- Electrical connections, capacitor and contactor check
- Refrigerant pressures and temperature split
- Filter check or replacement
- Outdoor unit rinse and clearance check
- A written note of anything that needs attention
How often?
For most South Florida homes, at least once a year, and twice a year for older systems, homes with pets, or rental properties. Businesses and restaurants often need more.
Between visits, change the filter and pour vinegar in the drain every month or two. Our how-to guide shows you how.
Common questions
Why does my A/C drain keep clogging?
Florida's heat and humidity grow algae and slime inside the drain line. Regular flushing and a maintenance visit keep it clear.
Does maintenance really save money?
A clean, correctly charged system uses less power and fails less often. Most expensive breakdowns start as small problems a maintenance visit would catch.
