Fast, Reliable AC Maintenance Across Conway
AC maintenance in Conway, FL typically runs $80 – $200 for a thorough tune-up and should be done twice yearly to handle our punishing humidity. Most Conway homeowners book spring and fall visits so their system is ready before the heavy cooling season hits the lake chain. Call Brandt HVAC at (984) 538-9003 to schedule yours, or read on to understand why Conway’s older homes need a different kind of maintenance than newer builds elsewhere in Orange County.
We know Conway well. Our crews are dispatched from our Miami office and serve neighborhoods throughout the Conway chain of lakes, from homes along Curry Ford Road to the CBS ranches tucked between Lake Conway and Lake Jessamine. We’re familiar with the concrete block construction that dominates here, the converted Florida rooms that strain original ductwork, and the elevated dew points that make a properly sized and maintained system critical, not optional.

Every maintenance visit starts with a written price before any work begins. No exceptions. You’ll also get a written report of what we found, what we did, and what to watch for next. Our technicians aren’t paid on what they sell, so there’s no pressure to add services you don’t need.

AC Tune Up in Conway
AC Tune Up in Conway means more than a quick filter swap and a glance at the thermostat. Our tune-ups address the specific stress this lake-chain climate puts on your system: elevated humidity that corrodes coils, biological growth in drain pans, and ductwork leakage in hot attics that robs your cooling before it ever reaches the rooms you actually live in. A typical AC Tune Up in Conway runs $80 – $200, and we recommend one every spring before the heavy cooling season, plus a fall check to catch any summer wear.
What We Check and Correct
We test refrigerant levels, measure temperature split across the evaporator coil, inspect electrical connections for heat damage, and clear condensate lines that clog faster here than in drier parts of Orange County. We also measure static pressure to spot restrictions from undersized duct takeoffs, a common problem in Conway homes where Florida rooms were added to original systems never designed for the extra load.
Written Report, No Sales Pressure
After every tune-up, you’ll receive a written report documenting what we found, what we adjusted, and what condition your system is in. If something needs attention beyond routine maintenance, we’ll explain why and give you a written price to fix it. Our techs don’t earn commission on upsells, so the recommendation you get is based on what your system actually needs.
HVAC Maintenance Service in Conway
HVAC Maintenance Service in Conway covers the full scope of keeping your heating and cooling system reliable year-round, not just the cooling side. Because our winters are mild, many Conway homeowners forget their heat pump or furnace needs attention too, until a January cold snap reveals a problem that maintenance would have caught. A complete HVAC Maintenance Service in Conway runs $80 – $200 for a standard visit, with any needed repairs quoted in writing before work starts, typically $150 – $650 depending on what’s required.
Heat Pump and Furnace Attention
We inspect heat pump reversing valves, test defrost cycles, and check electric heat strips that supplement your system on the coldest nights. For gas furnaces, we examine burners, heat exchangers, and safety switches. These checks matter in Conway because many systems here are original to 1960s and 1970s homes, with electrical panels and duct configurations that need careful evaluation before any major repair or replacement.
System Longevity in Older Homes
Conway’s housing stock, built heavily in the 1950s through 1970s, presents real challenges for HVAC longevity. Original ductwork in hot, poorly ventilated attics leaks conditioned air into spaces no one occupies. We measure that leakage and show you the numbers. Sometimes sealing and balancing the existing ductwork does more for comfort and efficiency than a new unit ever could.
Trusted Brands We Service in Conway
We maintain all major residential HVAC brands, including Goodman, Rheem, and York systems that remain common in Conway’s older neighborhoods. We also service Daikin units and carry parts for Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Bryant, and American Standard. Because we stock common components locally, most maintenance visits don’t require a return trip for parts. If your system is aging and parts are getting harder to source, we’ll tell you honestly and help you plan, not pressure you into a premature replacement.
Common AC Maintenance Problems We See in Conway Homes
- Evaporator coil corrosion and biological growth. The Conway chain of lakes keeps dew points elevated even when inland Orange County feels drier. That persistent moisture corrodes coils and breeds growth in drain pans, leading to clogs that back up water into your home or trigger emergency shutoffs.
- Chronic condensate line blockages. The same humidity that drives coil issues fills condensate lines with algae and sludge faster than in drier climates. We clear these lines thoroughly and treat them to slow regrowth, but the local conditions mean they need regular attention.
- Duct leakage in hot, unventilated attics. Many Conway CBS ranches have original ductwork running through attic spaces that reach 140°F in summer. Tape dries, seals crack, and conditioned air leaks into the attic instead of reaching your living room. We measure leakage with a duct blaster and show you exactly how much you’re losing.
- Undersized takeoffs starving converted spaces. Florida rooms and screened enclosures converted to conditioned space are often tapped into the original supply trunk with ductwork too small for the load. Static pressure spikes, the blower motor hunts, and the thermostat never satisfies while your energy bill climbs.
Pricing for AC Maintenance in Conway, FL
We believe Conway homeowners deserve to know what maintenance costs before they call, so here are our actual price ranges for this market:

|---|---|
| AC Tune-Up | $80 – $200 |
| AC Repair (if needed during maintenance) | $150 – $650 |
What affects where you fall in these ranges? System accessibility matters. Units in tight attic spaces take longer to service properly. The age and condition of your equipment affects how much adjustment and cleaning is needed.

FAQs About AC Maintenance in Conway
Your system is likely short-cycling, running too briefly to pull moisture from the air before shutting off. The Conway chain of lakes keeps local dew points elevated even when inland Orange County feels drier, so a system that would dry a house fine a few miles west can leave a Conway home clammy. Oversized units are a common culprit in older CBS ranches, and undersized duct takeoffs in converted Florida rooms compound the problem by making the blower hunt without satisfying the thermostat. We measure latent load and run times during maintenance to diagnose this properly. Call (984) 538-9003 to schedule an evaluation.
No, and doing so often makes comfort worse. Original systems in 1950s – 1970s Conway homes were frequently oversized even when new, and decades of duct leakage in hot attics have only increased the mismatch. A like-for-like swap ignores the converted spaces, degraded ductwork, and actual heat gain your house experiences today. We perform Manual J load calculations and measure duct capacity before recommending any replacement. Call (984) 538-9003 for a proper evaluation.
Twice yearly: spring before the heavy cooling season, and fall to catch summer wear. Conway’s lake-chain humidity and near-constant cooling load from April through October mean systems here work harder and longer than in many parts of the country. Bi-annual maintenance catches coil corrosion, drain pan growth, and refrigerant issues before they cause breakdowns or water damage. Call (984) 538-9003 to set up a maintenance schedule.
SEER2 is the updated efficiency rating that reflects real-world conditions, including higher external static pressure that better represents ductwork like what we find in older Conway homes. A high SEER rating on paper means little if your duct system can’t deliver the air. We evaluate your entire system, ducts included, when discussing efficiency upgrades. Call (984) 538-9003 for an honest assessment of what efficiency gains are actually achievable in your house.
Yes, we maintain and repair both. Heat pumps are common in Conway’s mild-winter climate, and mini splits are increasingly used for converted Florida rooms or additions where extending ductwork isn’t practical. We service all major brands and can integrate these systems with your existing equipment or maintain them as standalone units. Call (984) 538-9003 to discuss your specific setup.
