Maintaining your HVAC system through the changing seasons ensures efficiency and longevity. Here are some seasonal tips to keep your system running smoothly:
Replace Filters: Start the season with clean filters to improve air quality and system efficiency.
Inspect Ducts: Check for any signs of dust buildup or damage and schedule a professional cleaning if needed.
Clean Vents: Remove dust and debris from vents to ensure unobstructed airflow.
Check Insulation: Ensure your home is well-insulated to keep the cool air inside and reduce the system’s workload.
Inspect Refrigerant Levels: Low refrigerant levels can affect cooling efficiency. Have a professional check and refill if necessary.
Clean Outdoor Unit: Remove debris and ensure the outdoor unit has proper clearance for optimal airflow.
Test Thermostat: Ensure your thermostat is functioning correctly to maintain comfortable temperatures.
Inspect Heat Exchanger: Have a professional check the heat exchanger for cracks or damage, as this can be a safety hazard.
Seal Ducts: Inspect and seal any leaks in the ductwork to improve heating efficiency.
Monitor Humidity Levels: Use a humidifier to maintain comfortable humidity levels and prevent dry air issues.
Clear Obstructions: Ensure vents and registers are not blocked by furniture or drapes to allow proper airflow.
Regular Maintenance: Schedule a professional inspection to ensure your system is ready for the cold months.
