Why Proactive AC Maintenance is Crucial for Your San Marino Home

Waiting for your air conditioner to break down before calling for service is a costly and stressful strategy. Regular, professional maintenance is the key to maximizing your system’s efficiency, extending its lifespan, and preventing expensive emergency repairs.

Lower Your Energy Bills

A well-maintained AC unit runs more efficiently. Over time, dust, debris, and minor mechanical issues force your system to work harder to cool your home. Our tune-ups restore your unit to peak condition, reducing its energy consumption and lowering your monthly utility bills.

Extend the Lifespan of Your Equipment

Your air conditioner is a significant investment. Proactive service, including cleaning, lubrication, and calibration, reduces the daily wear and tear on critical components. This consistent care can add years to the operational life of your AC unit, delaying the need for a costly replacement.

Prevent Unexpected and Costly Breakdowns

The most common time for an AC to fail is during the hottest days of summer when it's under the most strain. During a routine service visit, our technicians can identify and address potential problems—like worn parts, low refrigerant, or frayed wiring—before they escalate into a complete system failure, saving you from discomfort and emergency repair costs.

Improve Your Home’s Indoor Air Quality

Your AC system circulates all the air in your home. A dirty system can harbor dust, pollen, mold, and other allergens, distributing them throughout your living space. We thoroughly clean internal components and replace filters, helping to create a healthier, cleaner breathing environment for you and your family.

Our Comprehensive AC Tune-Up: A Meticulous Approach to Performance

We believe in transparency and thoroughness. Unlike a basic check-up, our comprehensive AC tune-up involves a detailed, multi-point inspection and service process designed to optimize every aspect of your system’s performance. Here’s exactly what our technicians will do during a service visit:

System Cleaning and Airflow Optimization

  •  Inspect and Clean/Replace Air Filter: We check your air filter and replace it if necessary to ensure proper airflow and protect internal components.
  •  Clean Evaporator Coil: We professionally clean the indoor evaporator coil to improve heat absorption and efficiency.
  •  Clean Condenser Coil: We remove dirt, leaves, and debris from the outdoor condenser coil to ensure proper heat dispersal.
  •  Clear Condensate Drain Line: We flush the drain line to prevent clogs, water leaks, and potential property damage.

Mechanical and Electrical Inspection

  •  Inspect Electrical Components: We check all wiring, terminals, and capacitors for signs of wear, corrosion, or damage, tightening connections as needed.
  •  Lubricate Moving Parts: We lubricate motors and bearings to reduce friction, noise, and energy consumption.
  •  Inspect Fan Motor and Blades: We ensure the fan motor and blades are in good condition and operating correctly for optimal airflow.
  •  Check Refrigerant Levels: We accurately measure refrigerant levels to ensure they meet manufacturer specifications, as incorrect levels can severely impact performance and damage the compressor.

Performance and Safety Checks

  •  Calibrate Thermostat: We test and calibrate your thermostat to ensure it is accurately reading the room temperature and controlling the system properly.
  •  Test System Starting Capabilities: We verify that the system starts, runs, and shuts off correctly.
  •  Measure Temperature Differential: We check the temperature of the air entering and leaving the system to confirm it is cooling effectively.
  •  Overall System Assessment: Our technician provides a complete report on your system’s condition and offers professional recommendations for any necessary repairs or improvements.

Expert AC Repair and Installation Services

Even with regular maintenance, AC systems can sometimes experience issues. Our skilled technicians are equipped to diagnose and repair all types of air conditioning problems, from minor glitches to major system failures. We handle issues like refrigerant leaks, compressor failures, faulty thermostats, and strange noises quickly and effectively to restore your comfort.

If your system is older, inefficient, or facing a repair that costs more than half the price of a new unit, it may be time for a replacement. We can guide you through the process of selecting a new, high-efficiency air conditioner that fits your home’s needs and your budget. A modern AC system can provide superior cooling, significant energy savings, and advanced features like smart thermostat compatibility.

Don’t wait for a small issue to become a major problem. Ensure your home is ready for the heat with our professional AC service. Contact us today to schedule your comprehensive AC maintenance and enjoy a cool, comfortable, and worry-free summer.

Ruben from Piggies went above and beyond when he came to provide us with a quote for doing some duct work. He was also able to identify the underlying problem as to why we have been having a major issue with our heat in our office suite. He took photos, explained the issue, what he could and could not do, and what to communicate to our property owner. He spent far longer answering questions and finding the source of an issue that wasn't even the reason why he was onsite. EXCELLENT
CUSTOMER SERVICE!

I recently had my air conditioning unit serviced by Ruben, and I couldn't be more impressed. From start to finish, the experience was smooth and professional. He arrived on time, was incredibly knowledgeable, and explained the issue in a way that was easy to understand. He worked efficiently, resolved the problem quickly, and made sure everything was functioning perfectly before leaving.
I highly recommend this company for anyone needing AC repair or maintenance. I'll definitely be calling them again for any future needs!

First of all I NEVER do reviews or rate any company or product. But, Piggies Air Conditioning did an amazing job at a GREAT price! I always get at least 3 estimates, and in this particular situation, I had at least 5. These guys were the most reasonable by several thousand dollars, with BETTER equipment that the others! Our ac and heat package is at least a 17 seer system, which is top of the line! I've been in the construction business my entire life, and dealt with many companies from all the trades. It really doesn't get any better than Piggies! This company and its personnel were on time, and courteous, which is hard to come by these days. Ruben, Luis were very professional, and I was in constant contact with them throughout the job. The Daikin product is one of the best in the world! I'm giving Piggies two thumbs way up!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Piggies Air Conditioning, and I can't recommend them enough! From the moment I contacted Ruben, their team displayed an impressive level of knowledge and experience in the field. They answered all of my MANY questions with ease and friendliness and provided insights that really helped me understand my options and the scope of work as a whole. The communication throughout the process was fantastic. They kept me informed every step of the way, which was especially reassuring as a new homeowner navigating this kind of installation for the first time. I felt confident in their expertise and reccomendations they presented for our new HVAC sytems. When it came time for the installation, I was blown away by how efficient and professional the team was. They did a fantastic job with the installation itself and left the area spotless afterward. It was clear they respected our home as if it were their own, which is surprisingly rare in certain service fields, and greatly appreciated. Overall, my experience with Piggies Air Conditioning was excellent, and I would gladly recommend them to anyone in need of HVAC services.

Overall great job replacing our antiquated AC unit. The evaluation and detail is a big deal to us. Rueben explained all the techincal aspects and gave us great
recommendations and feedback. The actual installation was painless and unremarkable, his AC experts got it done, got it cleaned and most importantly got it right. Rueben even went a step further to assure we had
protection from the coming rain, that is service unheard of these days. His price was competitive and a REAL value for the service we recieved. Using anyone else for your AC needs, would be a huge mistake. We thank them again and will recommend to everyone.

I am a realtor in Los Angeles, and while we were getting ready to sell my clients home in Pasadena, an inspector from another company backed into my clients air conditioner. I was referred to Piggies AC by another trusted client so I called them. I talked to Ruben, he answered the phone right away, answered some of my initial questions, and was able to get me an appointment just two days later. On site Ruben was there on time, was extremely knowledgeable, And told us the best course of action to get the AC unit back in good working order. A day or two later he sent us an invoice and his prices were very reasonable. I am happy, Client is happy, thank you Ruben!

Leaving a 5-star review just after the initial inspection because I was blown away by Ruben's professionalism.
Echoing a lot of the other reviews here, Piggies Air Conditioning responds so quickly to requests (even though I actually accidentally sent in multiple requests on my side without responding, oops!)
They were able to come do a FREE energy audit and initial inspection on the same day and Ruben was amazing at explaining his thoughts on our house's situation and what he thought was worth the money and wasn't worth the money.
I truly felt like he was trying to help me find the best solution to our issues instead of just trying to upsell us on everything and anything.
I'm definitely recommending this business to anyone I know if they want a trustworthy and realistic service, value, and quality.
