Planning yearly AC maintenance is worth the effort.
Maintenance keeps your AC equipment in Grand Island operating at peak performance while keeping energy consumption low. It also might even help prolong its life cycle.
While there are a couple tasks you can do alone, you should call the Experts, like the ones at McElroy Service Experts, for AC examinations and upkeep.
Here are several steps you can do by yourself as you prepare for warm weather.
Get Your AC Tune-Up Set
Spring is a period of revival, and to many that involves a hefty portion of house, garage and yard sprucing. With the hotter temperatures approaching, it’s also a good idea to include AC checkups on that checklist.
Spring is a great time to get your air conditioning system scrubbed and examined. Hesitating to flip it on until the first sweltering day of the summer can be risky. If you have to have repair or installation, you might be waiting a long time for a tech. And that may become very unbearable.
And for those with allergies, being ahead of the game with a freshened AC system will help ensure the finest indoor air quality when it’s pollen season.
Also, AC maintenance might be mandatory for your system’s manufacturer warranty or any additional extended warranty.
Can I Do Maintenance Myself?
There are steps that you can complete to help keep your cooling system in the prime condition:
- Change your air filter advises each month or two. This is particularly necessary if you deal with allergies or have pets in your residence.
- Lawn maintenance near the outdoor condenser. Check there’s no grass, weeds or bushes by your air conditioning system. We suggest keeping 2–3 feet of clear space. You should also get rid of any leaves or twigs that have dropped into your system, because this could limit airflow.
