26 Degree HVAC's Core AC Performance Checks include:
1. Coil cleaning is VERY important in Florida
-
Clean evaporator coil (inside)
-
Clean condenser coil (outside unit)
-
Removes dirt, salt, mold buildup
Dirty coils = higher electric bill + weak cooling
2. Drain line & pan cleaning
-
Flush condensate drain line
-
Check drain pan for water/mold
-
Test float switch (prevents flooding)
This is one of the #1 issues in Florida homes
3. Refrigerant level check
-
Measure refrigerant pressure
-
Look for signs of leaks
Low refrigerant → usually means a leak
4. Electrical system inspection
-
Check capacitor, contactor, wiring
-
Tighten connections
-
Test voltage/amperage
Electrical failures are a top cause of breakdowns
5. Airflow & filter check
-
Inspect/replace air filter
-
Check airflow at vents
-
Look for duct issues or blockages
Poor airflow = uneven cooling + strain on system
6. Thermostat & system performance
-
Calibrate thermostat
-
Measure temperature split (supply vs return air)
-
Confirm system cycles properly
This tells if your AC is actually cooling efficiently
7. Blower motor & fan inspection
-
Clean blower wheel
-
Check fan motor performance
-
Inspect blades for wear
Dirty blower = weak airflow + higher bills
8. Overall system health check
-
Listen for unusual noises
-
Check for vibration or wear
-
Inspect insulation on refrigerant lines
-
Look for corrosion (big deal near the coast)
-
What’s EXTRA important in Southwest Florida Because you’re in a coastal, humid climate:
-
Drain lines clog faster → must be cleaned every visit
-
Coils corrode faster → cleaning + inspection matters more
-
Systems run longer → more wear on parts
-
Humidity control is critical → not just temperature
A legit maintenance service should take around 45-90 minutes. 26 Degree HVAC's Performance Checks are not a 10-minute "check"
