Residential HVAC Maintenance Plans in Clearwater, FL
One of the most important, yet most often forgotten air conditioning services we offer in Clearwater is preventative maintenance. Not only does this allow you the peace of mind that your AC will always be working efficiently, but you will be able to save money by fixing smaller parts as they wear down instead of dealing with giant repairs. Keeping your home cool during our hot summers can take up almost half of your monthly energy bills, so it makes sense to have that machine running as efficiently as possible.
A standard Total Air maintenance check includes:
- Inspect thermostat. We will ensure the set temperature matches the room’s actual temperature.
- Check electrical components. Issues with the electrical connections can cause the unit to be unsafe and prone to needing more expensive air conditioning services.
- Clean coils. The condenser and evaporator coils can get dirty which will increase your energy usage while reducing the AC unit’s ability to cool your home.
- Check filter. This is what keeps the air in your home clean and healthy for your family to breathe. How often it needs to be changed depends on many factors including outdoor allergens and if you have pets that shed. Our trained air conditioning service technicians will know exactly when it needs to be replaced.
- Review system controls. This ensures the unit shuts on and off when it is supposed to, and that everything is working correctly while it is cooling your Clearwater home.
We can create a custom maintenance plan for you, and if you become a Total Air Club Member you gain many benefits including semi-annual tune-ups, priority services, and discounted parts.
Clearwater, FL, AC Repairs And Installations
Even with maintenance, you will eventually need to have repairs or replace your Clearwater AC unit. Luckily, with our regular checks, our technicians will probably be able to warn you when you expect this to happen so you won’t suddenly be without a cold house on the hottest day of the year.
Often times it can be difficult to know whether you should pay for a repair, or if you should replace the entire unit. Some common signs that you should call for air conditioning services include:
- A steady increase in energy bills.
- Your house is humid.
- Not all rooms in your home are the same temperature.
- The unit is leaking.
While some of these may not seem serious at first, if left alone, they can cause you to experience unexpected breakdowns. If you are facing any of these issues and your AC unit is more than 10 years old, it may be more cost-effective to replace it with a new one. One of our Clearwater air conditioning service technicians would be happy to discuss the age-old question of “repair or replace?” with you to decide which is best for your needs.

What makes Total Air standout from others? The technical skills of their technicians are outstanding. Other companies might say their trained and skilled, but they are not. I was very upset with the last company who serviced my AC. Total air is a one company I will recommend to anyone looking for service or a new AC unit..
Wish I found this company 6 years ago

My AC failed this morning. I called Total Air for service and Wade Hepp arrived around 3:30 this afternoon and quickly traced down some complicated electrical problems both in the Air Handler and on the compressor. Wade had the parts needed on his truck and got everything back running. Wade was extremely courteous and considerate. He even put covers over his shoes when he entered my home. Thank you Wade for the fast and courteous service!

Arrived at customers house for system not cooling. On arrival. Customer show me upstairs to air handler unit. Opened off air handler unit and inside was extremely dirty. All filters are impacted. Turned on unit at thermostat. Condenser turned on but air handler fan did not. this unit is in our 22 system from 2008. Informed customer they would need a new fan motor. Due to age of unit. I suggested customers get consultation for a new unit. Customers agree. Getting consultation out here tonight. Will track down, a new fan to also get pricing for that. Unit is out of warranty date. Collected payment and signatures for today’s work and left. Thank you for choosing Totoal air.

Performed maintenance tune to include inspecting the indoor and outdoor coils, inspected all electrical connections, checked refrigerant level, flushed drain lines. I recommended for the customer to to have the coil and blower motor pull and clean and pure air UV system. Customer agreed to move forward with the recommended repair.

Customer concerned about unit not cooling properly. Checked condenser unit and checked refrigerant pressure. Located the system has no refrigerant pressure. Unit is leaking refrigerant for the system. Needs a leak search on system to locate leak in the system. Customer has approved for leak search and refrigerant added. Customer has approved for taps membership. Located the leak on line set. Tighten line set for garage air handler unit. checked for leaks on line set and tighten line set cover. Pumped down and evacuate to system to 500 microns with vacuum pump. Added 7 lb refrigerant to the mini split unit. Checked unit operation and unit is cooling properly and running well.
Wade H.
Completed maintenance. Checked pressures, amp draw and capacitance. Capacitor is within range. Amp draw on compressor is very high. Also found system to be a little bit low on refrigerant. It is AR 22 Straight cool. Vertical AH. Foam cleaned evaporator coil and rinsed with hot water. Also cleaned out primary pan and drain line. Filter was sucked into photo return and very dirty. Underneath of evaporator coil is a little dusty most likely due to poor filtering. System is cooling to the best of its ability. There is evidence of a leak based on the pressures. Suggestion would be to replace the system not to repair it. This is for A Comfort Advisor to come out and give a free estimate on system replacement.

Upon arrival to scheduled system maintenance I was shown to an A/H unit located horizontally in the garage. Immediately pulled off panel doors to inspect all electrical components connections, collect electrical readings and check the evaporator coil for cleanliness. Evaporator coil is clean but very rusted. Pictures uploaded to ST. All electrical components connections are secure and all readings are fully within range of factory specifications. Collected temperature differential at the air handler and had a 20° split temperature in the cooling mode. This system is equipped with 2 different types of UV light systems that are both needing replacements at this time. Spoke to the homeowner about the benefits of replacing the bulbs and he agreed and moved forward with quoted work. Went outside to the C/air to verify the systems refrigerant charge, inspect all electrical components connections, collect amp draw/voltage readings off the equipment. Clear the condensate drain line and

Called out today due to no cooling. Upon arrival system was running but not cooling properly. Checked refrigerant pressures and found the system low on r22 refrigerant. Clients are aware that r22 is no longer manufactured as of January 1st 2020. Clients would like to replace the system. We will have a comfort advisor out Monday morning with options for replacement. Thank you for always choosing Total Air! Comfort advisor

Upon arrival system was on and cooling. But customer had stated that while the house was being shown the system was not cooling and achieving temperature. Upon further inspection of the package unit on the roof of this apartment/condo, I found burnt and pitted contactor and a 35+5 capacitor that was out of range. There was also one burn wire going from the contactor to the capacitor. I brought my findings to the homeowner and suggested that these are the parts that needed to be immediately replaced. Pressures on this R 22 system indicate there are no leaks or restrictions. Customer excepted her the estimate to have the contactor and capacitor replaced. I also talked to her about the benefits of the maintenance plan and she accepted that as well. I sent everything via email including pictures. Homeowner is selling this property.

Upon arrival customer showed me systems in the living room and hallway that we’re not working. The living room coil was frozen and customer said he had nothing but issues with it by adding Freon. Went to the hallway unit if I were coils clean I did have someone replace the blower motor which was not the right blower motor and he rigged it up and system is low on Freon. Customer doesn’t want it fixed would like a comforter visor out to give a quote on both or all systems in Home. Comfort visor coming out on 5/24/23 @ 8 am sharpe.
