As the seasons change, it's important to ensure your heating and cooling systems are working properly. We recommend getting a pre-season tune-up twice a year — once in the spring to prepare for summer, and again in the fall to make sure your system is ready for winter. Keeping your HVAC in top condition can help prevent breakdowns and possibly prolong its life.
Tune-ups are available in the spring and fall for just $100 per unit with our ShieldSilver™, ShieldGold™ plans. One free tune-up per contract term is included in the ShieldPlatinum™ plan. HVAC Tune-up services are provided by Frontdoor® Pro. Current member? Please login to MyAccount to request service.

American Home Shield® uniquely offers pre-season HVAC Tune-ups to our members - once in the spring to prepare for warm days ahead and then again in the fall to ensure that your heater is ready for winter. Our HVAC tune-ups are offered at $100 per unit with the ShieldSilver and ShieldGold plans. If you have our ShieldPlatinum plan, you get one free tune-up per contract term and unlimited AC refrigerant.
You will simply pay $100 per unit (plus sales tax where applicable) for your HVAC tune-up. Should a covered issue be found that requires repair, you will be charged your service fee for that separate service request.
AC refrigerant should be checked during your spring HVAC tune-up every year and refilled when necessary.
Your refrigerant levels will be checked during the spring AC tune-up. If your AC system needs a refrigerant refill to keep the air in your home cool, our ShieldSilver and ShieldGold plans provide refrigerant at the discounted rate of $10/pound off the per pound price.
The ShieldPlatinum plan offers unlimited refrigerant at no cost. If a refrigerant refill is required, you will be charged your service fee for that separate service request.
You can place your first service request 30 days after you sign up for your plan. Service requests can easily be placed 24/7 online via MyAccount or by calling 1-888-691-2854 during standard business hours to request service.

Protecting your heating and AC systems with a home warranty can help save you money on repairs, give you peace of mind that you have someone in your corner when unexpected breakdowns happen, and help save you time because we’ll find the right Pro for the job.
An HVAC system can lose 5%-15% efficiency each year if not regularly maintained, so it’s important to get two, pre-season HVAC tune-ups per year - one in the spring to prepare your AC for summer and another in the fall to ensure your heating system is ready for winter. If you have multiple HVAC units, you will pay $100 per unit for your tune-up. One free tune-up per plan agreement term is included with our ShieldPlatinum plan.
Simply place a service request online via MyAccount, pay the fee, and then we’ll assign a Pro to your HVAC tune-up service request.
