Don’t Throw Away Your Money This Summer On A Lack Of AC Maintenance
This summer has been incredibly hot and with warmer temperatures, there is a potential to throw your money away.
Homeowners can’t afford to ignore their air conditioning equipment because inefficient equipment and potentially costly home cooling problems could equal wasted expenses.
“Proper care of cooling equipment can keep your unit running efficiently, which saves money and helps avoid costly repairs,” said Dave Kunz, Vice President of Holland Heating and Cooling. “Now is the time to make sure your cooling system will keep you cool without wasting your money.”
Homeowners play a vital role in making sure their cooling systems operate at peak performance to maximize home comfort and money savings. It’s important to realize that operating a dirty unit can cause unnecessary loss of efficiency and can damage the unit so AC maintenance is really important. A few minor steps are a small price to pay for the high efficiency, which means lower energy bills and improved total comfort.
A qualified service technician should handle major maintenance tasks, but homeowners can take a few simple steps to ensure their systems are running properly.
Homeowners can:
o Trim brush and shrubbery near outdoor units to prevent airflow obstruction
o Remove grass clippings, leaves, and other debris from the outdoor coil
o Replace your indoor unit’s filter monthly and clean the blower
o Reduce clutter in the attic to maintain proper ventilation and reduce the system’s cooling load
The most effective steps consumers can take to help ensure they’ll get the efficiency they paid for is to contact an experienced, reputable air-conditioning contractor to check their system’s refrigerant charge and operating safety controls.
