How to Save Money on Air Conditioning in Charlottesville
- Schedule AC maintenance in spring before summer demand drives up pricing — get ahead of the rush
- Get at least three written estimates and compare scope of work and warranties
- Change your air filter every 1-3 months to reduce strain on the system
- Ask about manufacturer rebates and utility company incentives for new installations
- Consider a maintenance contract for annual tune-ups at a discounted rate
- If your system uses R-22 refrigerant, plan for replacement as R-22 costs rise every year
