Raytown AC Tune-Up Checklist
Detailed, measurable steps our technicians complete and document during your tune-up.
- Record temperature differential (ΔT) across the evaporator coil and note results.
- Measure total external static pressure at return/supply; compare to system maximum.
- Check blower motor amp draw vs nameplate and confirm proper speed tap/ECM profile.
- Measure compressor amp draw (running & inrush) and compare to spec.
- Test and log capacitor microfarads (μF) for compressor and fan; replace if out of range.
- Inspect contactor faces for pitting; verify coil voltage and contact resistance.
- Tighten electrical connections in the air handler, condenser, and outdoor disconnect.
- Inspect condenser fan blade and motor bearings; confirm correct rotation and amperage.
- Verify thermostat calibration, staging, and communication; record setpoint accuracy.
- Flush condensate line and P-trap; treat for algae; confirm float switch shuts system off.
- Inspect evaporator coil and drain pan for cleanliness and proper drainage.
- Clean/rinse condenser coil (inside-out) to restore heat rejection where accessible.
- Assess refrigerant charge via superheat/subcool; document readings and ambient conditions.
- Inspect line-set insulation and brazed joints; perform electronic/soap leak check if indicated.
- Check supply air temps and airflow at registers; note any weak zones.
- Inspect duct/plenum connections for leakage or damaged mastic/tape.
- Test high/low pressure safety controls and review any control board codes.
