AC Maintenance & Tune-Ups in Batavia, IL | State Automatic
An air conditioner is an outdoor machine. It lives in rain, snow, and heat. In Batavia, it also lives in a cloud of cottonwood seeds, pollen, and dust. Over the course of a year, your condenser coil becomes a filter, trapping dirt that acts like a winter coat on your AC. This causes the system to run longer, hotter, and harder—driving up your ComEd bill and shortening the unit’s life. State Automatic Heating & Cooling provides a forensic-level 21-Point AC Tune-Up to strip away this grime and restore factory efficiency. See why the EPA recommends regular maintenance.
The “Cottonwood” Deep Clean
During June, cottonwood trees in Tanglewood and along the Fox River release their seeds. They mat against your outdoor unit, choking off airflow. A simple hose rinse isn’t enough.
- Chemical Degreasing: We apply a specialized foaming coil cleaner that pushes debris out from the center of the coil.
- Fin Straightening: We use a fin comb to straighten bent aluminum fins, restoring proper airflow dynamics.
- Drain Line Flush: Algae loves dark, wet places. We flush your condensate drain line with nitrogen and biocides to prevent summer basement floods caused by backups.
Electrical Safety Check

Heat kills electronics. We inspect your electrical disconnect, tighten loose voltage connections (which cause arcing), and test your dual capacitors. A weak capacitor typically costs under $100 to replace during maintenance but can cost $400+ if it fails on July 4th and takes his compressor with it.

Maintenance FAQs
How often should I service my AC?
Once a year, ideally in spring (April/May) before the first heatwave. This ensures your system is clean and charged before it faces the heavy load of summer.
Does maintenance really save money?
Yes. A dirty coil can increase energy consumption by 30%. Routine maintenance also prevents expensive breakdowns (like compressor failure) and extends the lifespan of the unit by 3-5 years.
What if my system is brand new?
Manufacturers like Carrier require proof of annual maintenance to keep their 10-year parts warranty valid. If you skip it and a part fails, they may deny the claim. We provide the documentation you need.
