How much does HVAC maintenance cost?

One-time maintenance starts at $99 for a seasonal tuneup of your A/C unit, heat pump or furnace. If your Service PROvider discovers additional issues during the maintenance, you may need to schedule follow-up services at an additional cost.

Your HVAC system may become less efficient if you skip regular tuneups. Conventional central heating and air systems should receive service twice a year — once in the spring for the cooling season and once in the fall for the heating season. An A/C system’s performance can decrease due to buildup of dirt, wear of components and improper refrigerant levels. A system tuneup can prevent costly repairs, extend the life of your system, and save energy and money. To ensure you receive the right options for your home, complete the form above.

Maintain Your HVAC or Air Conditioner Unit

Don’t suffer through a summer heat wave or winter’s chill with an unreliable heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) system. Lowe’s offers heating and air conditioning service to keep the humidity level and temperature comfortable in your home.

Regularly caring for your central air conditioning or air conditioner unit (A/C) with A/C tuneups can prevent costly repairs later. We offer HVAC repair and air conditioner repair for large system issues, such as compressor problems, as well as furnace repair. To keep your system running smoothly all year, regularly replace air filters and schedule HVAC tuneups and A/C tuneups at the start of the cooling and heating seasons. Regular checkups can ensure that your system has the proper insulation and airflow for maximum performance and energy efficiency.
