Skipping AC service resulted in a repair

For years I would reliably call my local Chicago AC repair business for seasonal service. I would have an appointment every spring and allow them to clean the inner workings. They would wash, wipe, scrub, and then leave. There was never an AC repair or anything major. I started wondering what I was paying for. You can’t really see it, just take their word for it. So I then made the house no longer do AC service. After two years of missing service, my device got back at me. The system totally shut down and would not turn on. It was the middle of my summer party where I had a whole crop of people. I had to call Chicago AC emergency service on a weekend. That added cost alone made me all sweaty and nervous. I then had to navigate an AC professional during a party, on a weekend, in a hot house. It was horrible. The guy showed me how gross my system was inside. There was also a worn part that had been given out that needed replacing. The cleaning, lubricating, oiling, and fixing all took hours to repair. By that point everyone had left because my house was so hot. The cost of the bill was obscene. The guy said I could have prevented it all with routine AC service. I immediately made sure to enroll in cooling service again so that an emergency repair never happened to me. It would have been cheaper to pay for service for two years then that one repair. It was a dumb decision on my part.
