“Great company. Very honest, reliable and fair pricing. They came out to do a service on my A/C unit. Robert who was amazing explained everything to me and showed me where there was a coil leak. They’re coming back out to do the repair for me. Would definitely recommend this company to anyone I know. Hard to find good honest companies these days but speaking from experience Ewing & Ewing is one you can trust. 10/10"

Tips to Keep Your AC Running Smoothly This Summer
Summer puts extra strain on your air conditioning system, making regular maintenance important. A well-maintained AC cools your home better by using less energy. It also makes it less likely to break down during the hottest days.
By following a few simple tips, you can improve comfort and lower utility costs. If problems arise, professional service can prevent small issues from becoming expensive repairs. But to find out how to maintain a well-functioning AC system on your own, read the tips from an expert service provider company as follows.

Why AC Maintenance is Important
Your air conditioner works harder when outdoor temperatures rise. Dirt, worn components, and restricted airflow force the system to run longer to cool your home. This extra strain increases energy consumption and accelerates wear on important parts. Routine AC maintenance ensures your AC is operating properly and reduces the risk of unexpected breakdowns.
Regular maintenance also helps identify small issues before they become expensive repairs. During an inspection, technicians clean essential components, tighten electrical connections, and check refrigerant levels to ensure all parts are running smoothly. A well-maintained system cools your home better, lasts longer, and helps lower your energy bills. Investing in preventive maintenance now can save you time, money, and inconvenience throughout the summer.
How to Keep Your AC Unit Clean
Keeping your AC unit clean helps it run more efficiently and reduces unnecessary strain on the system. These simple maintenance tasks can improve cooling performance and help prevent costly repairs.
Clean the Coils
Dust and debris can build up on your AC coils, reducing efficiency and making the system work harder. Clean coils improve cooling and help prevent unnecessary wear.
Replace or Clean the Air Filter
A dirty air filter restricts airflow and forces your AC to work harder. Check it monthly and clean or replace it every 1–3 months for better performance.
Clear the Area Around the Outdoor Unit
Keep the outdoor unit free of leaves, grass, weeds, and other debris. Maintaining at least two feet of clear space allows proper airflow and improves cooling efficiency.
Check Refrigerant Levels
Low refrigerant can reduce cooling performance and signal a leak. If your AC isn't cooling properly or develops ice buildup, have it inspected by an HVAC professional.
How to Improve Indoor Cooling Efficiency
Improving your home's cooling efficiency helps your AC work less while keeping indoor spaces comfortable. These simple tips can reduce energy use, improve airflow, and support better cooling performance.
- Keep Doors and Windows Closed: Keep doors and windows closed to prevent cool air from escaping. Close blinds or curtains during the day to reduce heat and help your AC cool more efficiently.
- Use a Programmable Thermostat: A programmable thermostat adjusts temperatures automatically. It improves comfort, reduces unnecessary cooling, and helps lower monthly energy bills.
- Make Sure Vents Stay Open: Blocked vents reduce airflow and make your AC work harder. Keep furniture away from vents and clean them regularly to maintain proper air circulation.
- Improve Your Home's Insulation: Proper insulation keeps cool air inside and hot air outside. Check your attic and walls for insulation problems to improve comfort and reduce energy use.
- Add Shade Around Your Home: Planting trees or shrubs around your home helps block direct sunlight. Added shade reduces heat buildup and allows your air conditioner to work more efficiently.
Signs Your AC Needs Professional Service
Even with regular maintenance, your air conditioner may develop problems over time. Addressing these issues early can help prevent more expensive repairs later. Contact an HVAC professional if you notice:
- Weak airflow
- Warm air coming from the vents
- Frequent on-and-off cycling
- Unusual noises
- Bad odors
- Energy bills higher than normal

"I'm so happy I found Ewing & Ewing today! My prior contractor was closed Sundays, and another one that was recommended was also closed Sundays, so my third attempt was Ewing & Ewing who came today (Sunday) a couple of hours after I called. A very nice gentleman named Chris fixed the problem in no time. They have an excellent annual service contract at a very reasonable price, so I couldn't pass it up. I look forward to working with them again. They have gained my trust and confidence today."
