Fall is officially here! That means it’s time to prepare your comfort system for the cooler weather. To help you get started, we put together a few easy tips!
As the weather gets colder, it’s a good idea to ensure your HVAC system is ready to keep you and your family warm until spring. Here are 3 tips to ensure your heating system will be running well throughout fall, and that your air conditioning system is protected against the cooler weather.
1. Clean Around Your Outdoor Unit
Make sure your outdoor unit is free of leaves, twigs, and bushes. This is important because debris can get logged into your air conditioning unit and could potentially cause a fire. Keeping your outdoor unit free of debris will certainly save you repair costs in the long run.
2. Check And Replace Air Filters
An ideal time to check and replace your air filters is before the cold weather arrives. A dirty air filter restricts airflow, making your comfort system work harder and reduces its efficiency. You should check your air filter at least once per month and change them when they get dirty. This small maintenance tip will ensure your HVAC unit is running efficiently throughout the year.
3. Check Your Furnace And Duct Work
Before you turn your furnace on, it’s a good idea to have your HVAC system checked and your ductwork cleaned by our expert technicians. Our certified technicians will make sure your heating system is running smoothly and that your ductwork is free of blockages.
