Yearly if you don't know how to clean the filters. Dirty filters add to the cost of operation and can impede air flow to the point of causing damage.

Ask them what they will do for typical service check. Clearing debris from the condenser should be done also. Either learn how or pay someone once in a while. How often really depends on environment and hours run.

The routing yearly cleaning of filters is something most homeowners do themselves. The filter manufacturer website should have info on how to do that. The outside condenser unit should be cleared of any leaves, debris, etc that is blocking airflow. Coils if dirty can be hosed down. I'm sure there is info on the web you'll find from googling.
