While summer is still a good ways off, south Florida residents are well aware of how quickly the warmer weather can sneak up on you. If your air conditioner isn’t prepared, you may find yourself in a hot and sticky situation in just a few short months. We’ve shared a few tips below to help you prepare your air conditioner and ensure a comfortable summer for you and your family.
Check Your Filters
Air filters serve to prevent dirt, dust, and other particles from reaching the equipment within your air conditioner as well as the air in your home. A dirty, clogged filter could make it harder for your cooling system to do its job, and also decreases the quality of your indoor air by allowing pollen, pet dander, and even mold and bacteria to reach your living space.
Clean Debris Away From Your Condenser
Have you ever given much thought to the landscaping surrounding your outside unit? Most homeowners don’t. However, overgrown grass, leaves, twigs, and plants could all pose a problem to your condenser and other outside components, obstructing airflow around this device.
Get Your Ductwork Cleaned
Envirotech Air Quality Services is one of the very few HVAC companies in West Palm Beach, FL that provides duct cleaning services, a vital function to ensuring the full functionality of your air conditioner. Ducts should be checked at least every 5 years to eliminate dust, allergens, and debris that may have become stuck inside. Dirty ductwork restricts airflow and also pollutes your indoor air.
Schedule Routine Preventive Maintenance
While most people wait until fall to schedule their air conditioning maintenance appointment, timing is not important as consistency. With regular AC maintenance, you’ll find that little problems can be resolved before they become bigger, more expensive problems. When you choose us for air conditioner maintenance, you’ll get a complete inspection including cleaning.
