The words "maintenance agreement" do not mean that the system will be maintained for free for a certain period of time, regardless of what goes wrong.
Dirty coils obviously change pressures. A dirty evap coil lowers suction pressure and a dirty condenser raises discharge pressure. A resi. split system will continue to function for yrs with a low charge usually undercharged at installation, of coarse the end result will probably be high electric bills and finally a dead compressor and the home owner will be non the wiser.
