Premier Air Conditioning Services in Kiowa Village, AZ

In the harsh Arizona climate, we recommend servicing your air conditioner at least twice a year – once in early spring before the intense heat arrives, and again in fall. Due to the extended cooling season and high demand on AC systems in Kiowa Village, this bi-annual maintenance helps prevent breakdowns during critical hot periods and extends the life of your system.

The correct size depends on several factors specific to your home, including square footage, ceiling height, insulation quality, window placement, and local climate conditions. In Kiowa Village's desert climate, proper sizing is crucial. An oversized unit will cycle too frequently and waste energy, while an undersized one won't cool effectively during extreme heat. We perform a professional load calculation to determine the exact size needed for optimal efficiency and comfort.

Several strategies can help lower cooling costs in our desert climate: 1) Schedule regular maintenance to keep your system running efficiently; 2) Install a programmable thermostat and set it to 78-80°F when home and higher when away; 3) Add ceiling fans to create a wind-chill effect, allowing you to raise the thermostat by 4°F without comfort loss; 4) Improve insulation, especially in attics; 5) Consider upgrading to a high-efficiency SEER-rated system; and 6) Use window coverings to block solar heat gain during peak sun hours.

While the national average for AC systems is 15-20 years, in Arizona's extreme climate, especially in areas like Kiowa Village, systems typically last 10-15 years when properly maintained. The extended cooling season puts additional strain on equipment. Regular professional maintenance can help maximize your system's lifespan, while neglect can significantly reduce it. If your system is approaching 10 years old and requires costly repairs, it may be more economical to consider replacement with a more efficient model.

Before calling for service, check these simple items that might resolve the issue: 1) Verify your thermostat is set to "cool" mode and at a temperature below the current room temperature; 2) Replace or clean air filters, as clogged filters restrict airflow; 3) Check circuit breakers to ensure they haven't tripped; 4) Make sure all vents are open and unobstructed; 5) Check the outdoor unit is clear of debris and vegetation; and 6) Verify the condensate drain line isn't clogged. If these checks don't resolve the issue, contact us for professional diagnosis and repair.
