    Customer Challenge

    As a Silver Club client, the homeowner received scheduled air conditioning maintenance from Air Care. During the visit, technician James maintained the AC system and also installed additional components designed to help protect the equipment and support compressor startup.

    Our Recommendation

    The visit was completed as a scheduled Silver Club maintenance appointment. Along with the AC maintenance, a surge protector for the AC unit was recommended to help protect the system’s electronic components from electrical surges, and a hard start kit was recommended to assist the compressor during startup.

    Our Solution

    Technician James performed the scheduled AC maintenance and checked the system as part of the Silver Club service visit. James also installed a surge protector for the AC unit to provide additional protection for the system’s electronic components. A hard start kit was installed to assist the compressor during startup and reduce startup strain.

    Outcome

    The AC system received its scheduled maintenance, along with two additional equipment-protection upgrades. The system now has a surge protector for the AC unit to help protect electronic components from electrical surges, and a hard start kit to assist the compressor during startup. The hard start kit assists the compressor during startup, helping reduce startup strain and potentially reducing wear on the compressor over time.

    What the two protection upgrades do

    The surge protector was installed to help protect the electronic components within the air conditioning system from electrical surges. The hard start kit was installed to assist the compressor during startup and reduce startup strain. Both were added during the scheduled Silver Club maintenance visit.

    Air Care Heating & Cooling completed scheduled AC maintenance for a Gold Club member in Sunnyvale, CA 94087. As part of the Gold Club maintenance visit, Brian cleaned and inspected the system to help identify potential problems before they could lead to an unexpected loss of cooling. During the maintenance inspection, Brian found that the system’s dual capacitor was testing outside of the manufacturer’s factory specification. The capacitor was replaced during the visit rather than leaving a known out-of-spec component in service, helping reduce the chance of the air conditioning system experiencing a capacitor-related failure during hot summer weather.
