And don't forget to clean the coils and the blower wheel annually. A decent company will do this. Run capacitators go bad and should be replaced every few years. Contacts should be inspected as well as tightening electrical connections. This is why some companies charge more than others. Competent and honest hvac companies are few and far between.

True but, most of these things fail due to stress of unit needing to run more often and longer due to poor air flow caused by dirty filter. Also every house will go thru filters at different rates. For instance our house with 2 pets needs to be changed closer to 45 days than 60 days listed on the filter.
