AC Maintenance in Truckee, CA

Prevent AC Breakdowns with Expert AC Maintenance in Truckee, CA

Summers in Truckee, CA may be milder than in the valley, but when the temperatures climb, a functioning air conditioner is essential for indoor comfort. The problem is, too many homeowners wait until something goes wrong before they call for help. Without regular upkeep, AC units can lose efficiency, break down unexpectedly, or fail when you need them most.

That’s why BAEHR Heating & Air offers comprehensive AC maintenance in Truckee, CA. We don’t just keep your system running — we help it run better, longer, and more efficiently. Routine maintenance is the best way to avoid surprise breakdowns, extend the life of your unit, and lower your energy bills.

A man in overalls and a hat repairs an air conditioner.

What Does Professional AC Maintenance Include?

Regular AC maintenance isn’t just about cleaning filters — it’s a detailed service that checks every component of your system. When you schedule with BAEHR Heating & Air, we perform a complete tune-up designed to boost performance and catch issues early.

Our standard maintenance service includes:

  • Full system inspection
  • Checking refrigerant levels and pressures
  • Testing thermostat function
  • Cleaning condenser and evaporator coils
  • Inspecting and tightening electrical connections
  • Lubricating moving parts
  • Inspecting ductwork and airflow
  • Checking drainage and condensate lines
  • Changing or cleaning air filters

We also provide you with a detailed service report and recommend any needed repairs before they become emergencies.

Why Routine AC Maintenance Is So Important

Neglecting routine maintenance can cost you — both in unexpected repairs and higher energy bills. Systems that are not properly maintained may lose up to 5% of their efficiency each year. That means your unit has to work harder, consume more energy, and is more likely to break down.

With regular AC maintenance, you can:

  • Increase system efficiency
  • Improve indoor air quality
  • Prevent costly breakdowns
  • Extend equipment lifespan
  • Reduce energy bills
  • Maintain your warranty coverage

Our maintenance plan makes it easy to stay on track with tune-ups and includes member perks like priority scheduling and service discounts.

Signs Your AC System Is Due for Maintenance

Even if your AC is technically working, it might still be underperforming. Catching these issues early through seasonal maintenance helps prevent bigger problems.

Look out for:

  • Increased energy bills without any changes in usage
  • Uneven cooling across different rooms
  • Strange noises or odors coming from the system
  • Weak airflow from vents
  • Thermostat that’s slow to respond or inaccurate

If it’s been over a year since your last professional tune-up, now is the time to book service.

Managing seasonal maintenance can be a hassle, but our HVAC maintenance plan takes the guesswork out of it. Designed for busy homeowners, it includes:

  • Bi-annual inspections (AC in spring, heating in fall)
