Tips for Taking Care of Your HVAC System This Spring

As heat gets turned off and A/C is on the way, it might be time to look at your HVAC system and see if everything is in working order. To be realistic, it has likely been too long since you last looked at your heating and cooling system, and some things might need attention or cleaning. spring is a great time to do this, as the weather warms and there are likely a few weeks where it won’t be running. Here are some things to keep in mind as we move into spring for keeping your HVAC in top condition.

HVAC Spring Tips to Take Care of Today

HVAC systems are durable and do a lot for your home. Make sure to take time this spring to check on some of these common problem and trouble areas.

Furnace Filter - Check It Today

Don’t wait on this first one. There’s a reason everyone always says to check your furnace filter. Not only can a clogged filter make for a possible safety hazard, but it’s likely that you could be saving money on energy costs simply by cleaning the filter out. Whether it needs a good cleaning, or maybe a total replacement, make this the first thing you do this spring.

Drainage Hole Cleaning

Make an effort to check the drainage hole in the base of the HVAC cabinet. When the drain is clogged, things have to work harder to keep air or heat running, and that can lead to problems with other parts of the HVAC system. To clean out the drainage hole, a small item like a paper clip or wire can fit into those tough spots.

Schedule a Tuneup

Much like a car, an HVAC system is something you want to regularly get maintenance on. Rather than wait for something to go wrong in the heat of summer or the chill of winter, schedule a tune up this spring when temperatures are mild and the HVAC system is largely unused. Scheduling a tuneup with our team does not just mean finding out things are in need of work, it also means a check of all the necessary parts of the HVAC system. Professionals know the ins and outs of HVAC systems, and to avoid having to guess as to the condition of your heating and cooling system, we tell you right away how things look from experienced eyes.
