9 Reasons NOT To Have the Air Conditioner Serviced!
I decided there was no need to share all the reasons you Should have your home air conditioner serviced this spring season, and instead, will try to inject a bit of humor, and focus on a few reasons NOT to have it done!
After all, a little humor in a tight economy can go a long way right? After you read them, add your own reasons in the comments section at the bottom.
You Have 6 Window Air Conditioners in Storage!
At least with all those window a/c units on hand, you can get them installed and ready to go in one afternoon! Who cares about efficiency right?
Your Central AC is Only 3 Years Old and You Don't Need Service!
After all, your car only has 5000 miles and doesn't need an oil change either, right? Having your central air conditioner serviced from day 1, is the most important time!
Who Needs 2 Extra Pounds of Freon Anyhow?
I mean, everyone knows the air conditioner works fine without the required amount of coolant in it, right? It's like a tire in a car being 10 pounds low on air...
The Dust on The Evaporator Coil Adds Character!
Yup, open the side of your evaporator coil and look at it! If you are not a 30-day filter changer, you will most likely be growing sweaters in the there!
A Few Extra Water Stains in the Ceiling Never Hurts!
If you have money to waste on repairs and painting, pay no attention at all to your AC drain line, really, don't even think about cleaning the ac line!
Overload, Schmoverload... Who Cares if The Compressor Overheats!
After all, whats a $1,200 repair among friends right?
The Leaking Duct Actually Cools the Attic Also!
Almost ALL home duct systems leak within 3-5 years, if not inspected and maintained annually! This is due to vibration, expansion and contraction, and various other natural occurrences! It only takes 10 minutes to inspect the duct, re-seal it, and help you SAVE energy and money!
It Worked Fine 6 Months Ago When I Turned On the Heat!
Yeah... and the airplane flew just perfectly last month also! Does that mean they shouldn't inspect it after every flight?
Finally... Who Cares if My HVAC Service Man Can't Come Until Tomorrow!?
Nothing like eating dinner around the table when its a ripe 85 degrees and stifling hot in the house! It's Murphy's law... your AC is not going to break down n a nice cool 65 degree day, it's going to buy it when its 95 degrees and working the hardest! Unfortunately, that's also what everyone else figured on also! So... your service company is going to be busy!!

Great Article!
Having your A/C serviced is not a necessity. It helps, but not having it serviced every season will not cause a lot of damage. It also saves a lot of money, unless you have HVAC training experience which can help you save time and money!
Reason #10: I’ve insulated my house with $100 bills, so I’ll just take some of those out when my system breaks down on a 90 degree day.
Nice Brian… LOL
