How bad is it not to have your cooling system checkup every year?

How bad is it if the A/C is making loud noises?
Really bad.
If you suddenly hear a noise you haven’t heard before and discover it’s coming from the HVAC, turn the system off and call for help immediately. Something is off balance or broken. If you continue to run the system with the odd noise, you’ll only be making matters worse. It is likely that there is something wrong with the blower, motor or compressor.
How bad is it to ignore utility bills that are getting higher?
Really bad.
Skyrocketing utility bills means that your system is no longer running efficiently. It may mean there is something seriously wrong with your air conditioning system. If your air conditioner is older than 10 years, it may be time to replace it especially if it is running all of the time (and running up your energy usage) trying to keep up.

While excessive leaks can be a problem, most water coming from the outdoor air conditioning unit is probably just condensation. Keep an eye on it and call if you are concerned that too much water is leaking.
