Read some tips from us to keep your cooling system in top condition.
Maintenance Is Key
Maintenance is key to keeping your cooling system running efficiently and avoiding costly repairs. Generally speaking, it is best practice to have a professional come out annually and give your AC unit a proper tune-up.
It typically involves checking for leaks, inspecting electrical connections, checking refrigerant levels, and more. A tune-up can help catch small problems before they become larger ones, saving you time and money in the long run.
Keep It Clean
A clean AC system runs much more efficiently than one that is dirty or clogged with debris. Make sure to regularly check the vents and filters of your AC unit for dust or dirt buildup; if the filter looks dirty, replace it immediately!
It will improve both the efficiency and lifespan of your cooling system. Additionally, make sure not to cover any outdoor condenser units as this can interfere with their ability to draw in air for cooling purposes.
Clean or Replace Air Filters Regularly
The air filter in your cooling system should be checked and cleaned at least every three months (or replaced if necessary). If you don’t clean the air filter regularly, dust, dirt and other airborne particles will accumulate inside and block air from flowing freely.
Leaving your unit’s air filter uncleaned will cost you more than the expense of getting regular maintenance. It will work harder than it needs to, for example, leading to decreased efficiency and higher energy costs.
Overall, clean or replace the air filter regularly for maximum performance.
Schedule Annual Tune-Ups
It is also a good idea to schedule annual tune-ups with a professional HVAC technician. These professionals will inspect your cooling system for any potential issues that could lead to larger problems down the line.
They perform routine maintenance such as cleaning condenser coils, checking electrical connections, lubricating moving parts, tightening bolts and screws, and more too. All of these help keep your unit running like new for years to come!
