Air Conditioner Cleaning – Denver & Boulder, Colorado
Regular cleaning and maintenance is vital to the health and efficiency of your central air conditioning unit. Cooling fins become clogged throughout the year by dirt and debris, lowering your unit’s efficiency and raising your energy bills. Neglecting regular cleanings is also one of the leading causes for air conditioner failure. Be sure to keep your home cool and comfortable all summer long by having our technicians clean and check your air conditioner.
FREE! Air Conditioner Cleaning Special
(With a rotary brush duct cleaning. Regular Price: $108.95)
Your outdoor AC unit collects a lot of dust and debris over time, such as grass clippings, leaves and dirt. The dirt and dust act as a blanket that keeps heat from transferring efficiently. As a result, your air conditioner has to work extra hard. This increases the energy consumption and chances of failure. Most AC manufacturers recommend an annual air conditioner cleaning.
We remove the metal cover and the grille of the air conditioner. We clean the condenser coil, the fan motor blade, and fan motor. We carefully remove all dust and debris. We then test your air conditioner to ensure it runs optimally.
Air Conditioner A-Coil Cleaning Special – $129.00!
(Regular Price: $178.00)
The A-Coil or evaporator coil is a separate unit, hidden inside a housing. It works in conjunction with the AC condenser and the furnace blower. When your air conditioner is running normally, the A-coil becomes very cold. After the air that passes through the A-coil, it temperature is lowered. Dust, dirt, debris, and even cat litter dust can build up on these coils, reducing your AC’s efficiency. A dirty A-coil can also become covered with mildew and mold, causing problems for residents with allergies and asthma. In severe cases, A-coils can become so blocked that air flow is seriously reduced, leading to an A-coil icing problem that can cause your air conditioner to stop operating.
Our cleaning technicians will pull the A-coil partially out and clean it. The dust, dirt and debris will be carefully removed. After your A-coil is cleaned, we will run a complete AC test to ensure your air conditioner functions normally.
How to Check for Dirty A-Coil?
The quickest way is to measure the temperature of the air entering the AC at the filter and compare it to the temperature at the closest register inside your home. A good system will show a 20-25F degree difference in temperature. If your AC is fully charged with refrigerant, but your house doesn’t cool, the culprit is likely a dirty A-coil.

Air Conditioner Energy Saving Tips
- Choose the right sized unit – A bigger air conditioner is not necessarily better. An air conditioner that is too large will not cool a house uniformly. As a result, some areas are cooled too quickly while other areas are still warm. If an oversized unit cools an area too quickly, it can cause the air conditioner to frequently turn on and off, wasting electricity. An air conditioner should be sized based on the size of your home, number of rooms, shading and humidity levels
- Choose a high efficiency model – Air conditioners are rated by Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER). High efficiency air conditioners have a SEER level above 14.5. Air conditioners with a higher SEER consume much less energy over time, resulting in significant energy bill savings.
- Keep the air filter clean – A dirty filter reduces air flow. Check your AC’s air filters once a month and clean or replace filters when necessary. Keeping your filters clean can cut energy consumption by 5 to 15%.
- Keep the air conditioner clean – Two critical components of your air conditioner, the condenser coil and A-coil must be kept clean for peak performance.
- Set the thermostat to the right temperature – Set the thermostat to 78F. Setting the thermostat down to 72F will increase your cooling costs from 12 to 47%.
- Keep air flow unobstructed – Make sure furniture does not obstruct air conditioning vents. Close off unoccupied rooms and close vents in those rooms.
