Spring HVAC Maintenance Tips

For some homeowners, HVAC maintenance can seem intimidating. However, by completing a few simple tasks, you can ensure your system is running properly, prevent expensive repairs, and extend the lifespan of your unit. 

Simple but effective ways to keep your AC working reliably include:

• Change your air filters: It’s important to change your air filters every 30 to 60 days to ensure your system runs properly.
• Inspect your ductwork: A quick look at your home’s visible ductwork can reveal problems like holes or broken seals. 
• Inspect the drain pan: It’s not uncommon for your drain pan to get dirty or full of debris that can clog your condensate line and cause flooding. 
• Remove any debris around the outdoor unit: If your outdoor unit is blocked by landscaping or other objects, you need to remove them to ensure proper functionality. 
• Install a smart thermostat: Smart and programmable thermostats offer many convenient features and can also improve your home’s energy efficiency.
• Schedule professional maintenance: It’s important to schedule AC maintenance each spring so you can be confident your system is running correctly before summer.
