We work on all brands and models of central air systems, ductless mini-splits, and heat pumps.

Yes, our Dempsey Comfort Club maintenance plans start at $224.40 per year and include annual tune-ups, priority service, and 10% discounts on parts and labor for repairs. Regular maintenance is the best way to prevent emergency breakdowns and extend your AC system’s lifespan.

During maintenance visits, we clean coils, check refrigerant levels, test electrical connections, calibrate thermostats, and inspect all system components for wear. This catches small problems before they become expensive repairs and keeps your system running efficiently to lower energy bills.

Plan members also get priority scheduling for repairs and emergency service. When everyone’s AC is failing during a heat wave, our maintenance customers get first priority. The annual savings on repairs often pays for the plan cost, plus you get the peace of mind of knowing your system is properly maintained.

Several warning signs indicate your AC needs professional attention before it fails completely. Warm air from vents, weak airflow, unusual noises like grinding or squealing, frequent on/off cycling, and higher than normal energy bills all suggest system problems.

Other red flags include moisture or leaks around the unit, bad odors when the AC runs, or if some rooms aren’t cooling properly while others are fine. These symptoms often indicate refrigerant leaks, electrical problems, or airflow restrictions that require professional diagnosis and repair.

Don’t ignore these early warning signs, especially heading into Rochester’s hottest months. What starts as a minor issue can quickly become a complete system failure when your AC is working hardest. Early repairs are almost always less expensive than emergency replacements during peak summer demand.
