Planning regular AC maintenance is useful.
Tune-ups keep your AC unit in Philadelphia operating at its top performance while keeping utility usage down. It also could even help lengthen its life span.
While there are a few things you can finish by yourself, you should work with Experts, like the ones at Stallion Heating Plumbing Air Conditioning, for AC inspections and upkeep.
Here are a few steps you can do on your own as you prep for warm weather.
Get Your AC Checkup Scheduled
Spring is a period of revival, and to many that includes a large dose of home, garage and yard cleaning. With the hotter weather approaching, it’s also a good idea to add AC maintenance on that list.
Spring is a great season to get your AC equipment freshened and inspected. Waiting to turn it on until the first warm day of the summer can be dicey. If you need service or replacement, you might be waiting awhile for a tech. And that might get very unbearable.
And for allergy sufferers, being ahead of the game with a clean air conditioning system will help assure the best indoor air quality when it’s pollen season.
Plus, AC maintenance can be mandatory for your equipment’s manufacturer warranty or any extra extended warranty.
Can I Do a Tune-Up Myself?
There are methods that you can take to help keep your cooling unit in the top state:
- Replace your air filter recommends each month or two. This is particularly necessary if you suffer from allergies or have pets in your residence.
- Lawn upkeep by the outside condenser. Make sure the area is free of grass, weeds or bushes by your cooling unit. We suggest keeping 2–3 feet of open room. You should also clear any leaves or twigs that have dropped into your system, since this may block airflow.
