Boise’s cooling season runs longer than people who haven’t lived through a few of them tend to expect. The system kicks on in late April and doesn’t stop until October. That’s a long time to go without a tune-up, and the systems that show up on emergency repair calls in July almost always had problems that were visible in March. Right Now Heating, Air Conditioning, Plumbing and Electrical has been maintaining Boise homes since 2001. Our 21-point inspection covers the components that actually fail in Idaho summers.
What Deferred Maintenance Looks Like in July
We see the same pattern year after year across Boise and the Treasure Valley. A capacitor that read borderline during a spring visit fails during the first extended hot stretch in late June. Refrigerant that’s been dropping slightly for two seasons finally affects compressor output enough to notice in August. A condensate drain that started to restrict in spring backs up during the first humid week and shuts the system down on a Saturday afternoon.
None of that is a surprise if the system was inspected in March. It’s only a surprise when it’s not.
What the 21-Point Tune-Up Covers
Every item, every visit. No shortened version.
- Refrigerant pressure and charge verification. Even a small deficit increases compressor load and can shorten system lifespan over time
- Condenser coil cleaning. Boise springs bring cottonwood and dust that load outdoor coils quickly. A 20 percent fouled coil runs noticeably less efficiently.
- Evaporator coil inspection and cleaning
- Capacitor and contactor testing. Capacitors are the most common single-point failure in Treasure Valley systems and the most preventable.
- Condensate drain line clearing
- Electrical connection inspection and amp draw testing
- Blower motor and belt check
- Thermostat calibration
- Filter inspection and replacement
- Water heater cleaning and safety inspection included with the tune-up special
When to Schedule in Boise
March or April. Before the system is under summer load, diagnostic readings are more accurate and there’s time to address anything found. By late May the schedule fills fast across the Treasure Valley. Boise’s spring is short. Don’t wait until the week before Memorial Day to call.
