AC maintenance and seasonal tune-ups

What a spring tune-up actually covers

A spring tune-up is the cheapest insurance your air conditioner will ever get. Our techs check refrigerant levels, clean the condenser and evaporator coils, test the capacitor and compressor, clear the condensate drain, tighten electrical connections, and change the air filter. Catching a weak part in April beats a no-cool call in July, and regular maintenance protects efficiency, extends the system lifespan, and keeps your manufacturer warranty valid. Our Maintenance Membership starts at $16.58 a month and adds priority scheduling, a waived diagnostic fee when you proceed with a repair, and a discount on any repairs you do need.

Tuned up by a company built to last

Tune-ups only pay off if the company doing them plans to be around next spring, and we've kept that appointment every year since 1956. The third generation of our founding family runs the shop today, the techs on your tune-up are certified employees, and seniors and military members save 5% on the visit.

One call books your tune-up

Booking a tune-up takes one call, answered live whenever you make it. We'll find a slot that fits your week, often within the day, and the same certified crew can handle anything the inspection turns up.

What a Leonard Splaine tune-up actually covers, and the plan that keeps it on schedule.

Seasonal AC Tune-Up

A spring tune-up is the cheapest insurance your AC gets. We run a full multi-point check: refrigerant levels, capacitor and compressor, contactor, coils, condensate drain, electrical connections, airflow, and thermostat, and give you a straight report on anything starting to wear before it fails in July.

  • multi-point inspection
  • spring & fall service
  • performance report
  • every brand

Coil Cleaning

Dirty condenser and evaporator coils are one of the biggest quiet drains on efficiency. We clean them so the system sheds heat properly, cools faster, and runs on less power. A clean coil is often the difference between an AC that keeps up in a heat wave and one that doesn't.

  • condenser & evaporator coils
  • restores efficiency
  • better cooling
  • lower bills

Refrigerant Level Check

We check your refrigerant charge against factory spec every visit. Low refrigerant means a leak, and a system that's under-charged runs warm, ices up, and works the compressor to death. Catching it during maintenance beats an emergency no-cool call.

  • charge to factory spec
  • early leak detection
  • protects compressor
  • R-410A & R-22

Filter Replacement & Air Quality

A clogged filter chokes airflow and makes the whole system strain. We check and change filters and can add indoor air quality upgrades, high-efficiency media filters, UV lamps, and air purifiers, so your family breathes cleaner air and the equipment moves it more easily.

  • filter changes
  • media & HEPA
  • UV lamps & air purifiers
  • better airflow

Electrical & Capacitor Inspection

Most summer breakdowns are electrical, and they announce themselves early. We test the capacitor, contactor, relays, and connections during maintenance and replace anything weak, so a five-dollar part in April doesn't become a no-cool emergency in July.

  • capacitor & contactor test
  • tighten connections
  • prevents breakdowns
  • safe operation

Lynn Gilbertson Google review
Kyle provided emergency holiday weekend service when our a/c was completely out with 104F "feels like" temperatures. He quickly diagnosed and fixed our system, with solutions for avoiding similar problems in the future. We are grateful to Kyle and Leonard Splaine!
Katie Kada Facebook recommendation
Couldn't have asked for better service! Leonard Splaine was timely, honest and did a wonderful job replacing our very outdated AC unit. We plan to use them again for any service or replacement in the future and we'll recommend them to our friends and family.
Emma F. Yelp review
I will definitely use this company again! Our AC went out on one of the hottest days of the year. They answered and came to the rescue! Family owned and very kind. Technician was knowledgeable and quick.
Ankur Mundra Facebook recommendation
I've used Leonard Splaine the last 5 years. They are professional, provide quality service, and answer my questions and concerns. Michael Ford came out this year to do my spring maintenance as well as eztrap installation and condenser coil cleaning. He did an excellent job.
Candace Bond Google review
They were such gentlemen and seemed to be very knowledgeable and honest. They were also very patient and took the time to answer all of our questions. I would highly recommend these guys.
Shawn R. Yelp review
A/C stopped working on the hottest day of the year, so far. They came over the same day and had it up and running in no time. The price was reasonable and the tech was great.

Good questions

Frequently asked questions about ac maintenance in Northern Virginia

The questions Northern Virginia homeowners ask us most about ac maintenance. Anything else, the phone's faster than the internet.

What's included in an AC tune-up?

We check and top off refrigerant levels, clean the condenser and evaporator coils, test the capacitor, compressor, and contactor, clear the condensate drain, tighten electrical connections, check airflow, and change or check the filter. You get a report on anything that is starting to wear.

How often should I service my AC?

Once a year, in spring before cooling season. If you also have a heat pump that runs year-round, twice a year is better since it works in both seasons.

Does maintenance really prevent breakdowns?

Most summer no-cool calls trace back to a part that was quietly failing for months, a weak capacitor, low refrigerant, a dirty coil. A tune-up catches those in the spring, when it is a cheap fix instead of an emergency.

Do I need a maintenance plan?

You do not need one, but our plan pays for itself for most homeowners: priority scheduling, waived diagnostic fees, seasonal tune-ups, and a discount on any repairs. Ask us for the current details.

Will a tune-up keep my warranty valid?

Yes. Most manufacturers require documented annual maintenance to honor the parts warranty. We keep the records so your coverage stays intact.
