New Goodman condenser installed by Mendoza Heating and Air in Tampa, FL

A Tampa air conditioner doesn't get a season off. It cools from April into October, rests for about a minute, and then the heating side takes its turn — and it's running in humidity that grows algae in drain lines and corrodes electrical parts year-round. Systems here don't usually die of old age. They die of neglect: a capacitor that weakened for two summers, a drain that clogged one month at a time, a coil that got dirtier until the compressor gave up.

A maintenance plan is how you stop playing that game. Two scheduled visits a year — one in spring for the cooling side, one in fall for the heating side — where a tech runs the full checklist, cleans what's dirty, tests what's wearing, and writes down what he found. Problems get caught in the cheap stage. And because every visit is documented, your manufacturer's warranty stays protected with a maintenance record to back it up.

You don't have to remember any of it. We track the schedule, reach out when your visit is due, and work around your day. That's the plan.

What's included in every plan visit

Every visit — spring and fall — runs the same complete checklist as our full tune-up. No lite version for plan members.

After each visit you get a straight written report: what we tested, what the readings were, what's healthy, and what's starting to wear. That report is also your maintenance documentation — the paper trail manufacturers ask for when a warranty claim comes in.

wil’s take
“Nobody’s AC breaks during a tune-up in April. It breaks in July, on a Saturday, when it’s 94 degrees and the house is full of family. A plan moves your problems to a weekday in spring, when they’re still small and cheap. I can’t promise nothing will ever break — anybody who does is lying. I can promise we’ll see it coming.”

What members actually get

Priority scheduling

When something does break — and in Tampa, mid-July is when everyone breaks at once — plan members go to the front of our schedule. You're not a stranger calling a booked-solid shop during a heat wave. You're on the list, and the list gets served first.

Fewer surprise breakdowns

Most of what kills a system announces itself months ahead: a capacitor drifting weak, contactor points pitting, a drain line narrowing with algae, refrigerant creeping low. Two inspections a year means those parts get seen while they're still cheap — that's the difference between a part swap during a tune-up and a dead compressor on the hottest weekend of the year.

Your warranty stays valid

Equipment manufacturers expect regular maintenance, and they can ask for proof of it when a warranty claim comes in. Skipped maintenance is a known way to get a claim denied. Every plan visit is documented — date, readings, work performed — so if a covered part fails, your paperwork is in order and the claim has what it needs.

Lower bills, longer life

A clean coil, correct refrigerant charge, and tight electrical connections mean the system doesn't have to work as hard to cool the same house — that shows up in the electric bill. And systems that get maintained simply last longer. Years longer, in our experience, than identical systems that only ever see a tech when something breaks.

How the plan works

1. Join with one call. Tell us about your system — or systems — and we'll match you to the right tier for your home.
2. First visit, right away. A full-checklist tune-up with baseline readings and a written report, whenever you join.
3. We track the calendar. When the opposite season's visit comes due, we reach out and schedule around you.
4. Between visits, you're priority. Something acts up, you call — and your name goes to the front of the line.

Honest pricing

Plans starting at $199. We'll match you to the right tier for your system.

Your exact price depends on your home — mainly how many systems you have and their size and type. We quote it in writing before you join, and here's our commitment on the fine print: the plan covers the maintenance visits themselves, repairs are always quoted separately and approved by you first, and you can cancel anytime. No lock-in, no exit fees, no surprises buried in paragraph nine.

Questions & Answers

What's included in a maintenance plan?

Two full tune-up visits a year — spring for the cooling side, fall for the heating side — each running the complete checklist: capacitor and electrical testing, refrigerant pressures, coil cleaning, drain clearing and treatment, float-switch test, connection and contactor inspection, thermostat test, and a heating-side test in fall. You get a written report after every visit, and plan members get priority scheduling when something breaks.

How often do you come out?

Three times a year. The spring visit gets your cooling ready before Tampa summer; the fall visit tests the heating side before the first cold night. We track the calendar and reach out when your next visit is due — you don't have to remember anything.

Can I join mid-year?

Anytime. Your first visit gets scheduled right away whenever you join, and the second visit lands in the opposite season, so in your first year you still get both sides of the system checked — cooling and heating — no matter when you start.

Does the plan cover repairs?

Honest answer: the plan covers the maintenance visits themselves, not repair parts and labor. What it does is catch problems while they're cheap — a weak capacitor found in April instead of a dead system in July. If a visit turns up something that needs fixing, you get a straight price up front and nothing gets repaired without your okay.

I have two systems. How does that work?

Each system gets its own three visits a year — both air handlers, both outdoor units, full checklist on each. Your exact price reflects how many systems your home has and their size, and we quote it in writing before you join, so there are no surprises.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There's no long-term lock-in and no cancellation runaround — call us and it's handled. Visits already completed stand as done; we're not interested in keeping anyone on a plan they don't want.

Does maintenance really affect my warranty?

It can. Manufacturers can ask for proof of regular maintenance when a warranty claim comes in, and skipped maintenance is a known reason claims get denied. Plan visits are documented — dates, readings, and work performed — so you have the paper trail if a claim ever comes up.
