At Chason Services, we offer a full range of AC services, from spring tune-ups and maintenance plans to repairs and new installations. With 80 years in the HVAC industry, our team keeps Central Maryland homes cool and comfortable all summer. The best way to avoid a mid-July breakdown is to have your system checked before the heat arrives, and that’s where we start.

Why Annual AC Maintenance Matters

Regular maintenance will:

  • Help you avoid costly repairs by catching worn parts early.
  • Lower your energy bills by keeping the system running efficiently.
  • Extend the life of your equipment.
  • Improve indoor air quality. Coils and filters that aren’t cleaned regularly can harbor mold and bacteria.
  • Protect your warranty. Many manufacturers require proof of regular maintenance.

A Real Inspection, Not a Sales Pitch

At Chason, we do a full inspection, not a quick look. We don’t glance at your air conditioner and tell you that you need a new unit. We actually maintain it so it lasts. That means checking refrigerant pressures, subcooling and superheat, testing voltage, amp draw and capacitance, tightening every electrical connection, and inspecting the coils, blower wheel and condensate drains. When we’re done, we go over how your system is running and what condition it’s in, so you can make your own decision.

What’s Included in Our AC Tune-Up

Every cooling inspection follows the same checklist:

  • Inspect, clean (if washable) or replace your standard 1″ filter
  • Inspect system safety devices
  • Check thermostat operation and settings
  • Check refrigerant pressures, subcooling and superheat
  • Inspect condensate drains and condensate pumps
  • Inspect the indoor evaporator coil and outdoor condenser coil
  • Inspect fan blades and the blower wheel
  • Check voltage, amp draw and capacitance of equipment and components
  • Inspect and tighten all electrical connections
  • Inspect the water heater
  • Review the system’s operation with you and advise you of its current condition

Coil cleaning, condensate pump cleaning and blower wheel cleaning are available as add-on services. Gold members get standard coil and blower wheel cleaning included.

AC Care for the Maryland Climate

Central Maryland summers bring long stretches of heat and humidity. During those weeks your air conditioner runs almost nonstop and has to pull a lot of moisture out of the air. Pollen, cottonwood fluff and leaves clog outdoor coils, and humid weather can lead to algae in condensate drains. Spring is the right time for a tune-up in Timonium, Cockeysville and across Baltimore County. Clean coils and clear drains let your system handle that first heat wave.

  • Membership: members get discounted service rates and 15–30% off parts.
