The MDTECH Comprehensive 21-Point AC Maintenance Checklist

Our NATE-certified technicians perform a meticulous tune-up, following a detailed checklist to ensure every vital component is optimized for safety and performance:

I. Electrical & Safety Checks

  • Test and Calibrate Thermostat: Ensure accurate temperature readings and communication with the system.

  • Inspect & Tighten Electrical Connections: Loose wiring can be a safety hazard and damage components. We check and tighten all connections.

  • Measure Voltage and Amperage: Verify that the compressor and motors are drawing the correct power to prevent overheating and failure.

  • Test Capacitors and Contactors: Critical components for starting the unit—we check for signs of failure and replace as needed.

II. Performance & Efficiency Checks

  • Check Refrigerant (Freon) Levels: Verify the correct charge. If low, we detect and locate leaks (low refrigerant drastically reduces efficiency and damages the compressor).

  • Clean Condenser Coils (Outdoor Unit): Remove dirt and debris build-up that restricts heat transfer and forces the unit to work harder.

  • Inspect and Clean Evaporator Coil (Indoor Unit): Check for dust and mold on the indoor coil (where heat is absorbed).

  • Inspect/Replace Air Filters: Replace or clean filters to ensure optimal airflow and indoor air quality.

III. Airflow & Drainage

  • Inspect and Clear Condensate Drain Line: Flush the drain to prevent clogs, which can lead to water leaks and system shutdown.

  • Inspect Blower Motor & Fan: Lubricate moving parts to reduce friction, noise, and energy consumption.

  • Measure Temperature Differential (): Confirm that the system is cooling the air effectively and delivering the required output.
