“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"

Summer puts extra strain on your AC, making regular maintenance essential. A well-maintained system cools your home effectively, uses less energy, and reduces the risk of breakdowns on hot days.

Importance of AC Maintenance
Your air conditioner works harder as outdoor temperatures rise. Dirt, worn parts, and restricted airflow make the system run longer, increasing energy use and wear. Routine AC maintenance keeps your system operating properly and lowers the risk of unexpected breakdowns. It also helps catch small issues before they become costly problems.
Our expert technicians clean key components, check refrigerant levels, and inspect electrical connections. A well-maintained AC cools your home more efficiently, lasts longer, and helps reduce energy bills. Preventive maintenance can save you time, money, and inconvenience during the summer.
How to Keep Your AC Unit Clean in Summer
Keeping your AC unit clean helps it run more efficiently and reduces unnecessary strain on the system. These simple maintenance tasks 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 and improved airflow.
Clear the Outdoor Unit Area
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 your home comfortable. These simple tips can reduce energy use and improve airflow:
- Keep Doors and Windows Closed: Keep doors and windows closed to keep cool air inside. Close blinds or curtains during the day to block heat.
- Use a Programmable Thermostat: Set your thermostat to adjust temperatures automatically. This reduces unnecessary energy use.
- Make Sure Vents Stay Open: Keep vents clear of furniture and other items. Clean them regularly to support proper airflow.
- Improve Your Home's Insulation: Good insulation keeps cool air inside and heat outside. Check your attic and walls for gaps.
- Add Shade Around Your Home: Trees and shrubs can block sunlight and reduce heat around your home. This helps your AC work more efficiently.
Signs Your AC Needs Service
Even with regular maintenance, your air conditioner may develop problems over time. Addressing these issues early helps 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

Reviews from Our Clients
"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."
