I don't and I rely on them to do the job that they are trained to do.

The most common fault on a household ac system is that the condenser starting cap fails. This is a 25-35 dollar item. The first thing I did when I moved in was buy a replacement online and stuck it in the condenser wiring compartment, so that when it fails in 5 years on a Friday night and you can't get one till Monday it will be there to replace the old one. Very easy to change by yourself.
