East County summers are brutal. El Cajon, La Mesa, Santee, and the backcountry pushes 100°F+ routinely from June through September. Systems work hard and fail fast when maintenance is skipped. We put East County homes on twice-a-year tune-up plans so capacitors and refrigerant charge don't quit in the middle of a heat wave.
