You want your home to feel comfortable year-round. One way to do this is to maintain its HVAC system. Poorly maintained heating and cooling equipment breaks down more often and affects indoor air quality. Follow these tips from the pros and keep your HVAC in Melbourne, FL, working well all year.
Schedule Seasonal Tune-Ups
It’s recommended that you have your heating and cooling equipment professionally inspected and tuned twice a year. Spring and fall tune-ups prepare your equipment for hot and cold weather that comes with seasonal changes. Scheduling professional service keeps your equipment cleaner and identifies potential issues sooner.
Clean the Outside Condenser
Central air conditioning systems have indoor and outdoor units. Often, the outdoor unit gets forgotten about. However, during the summer, make it a point to clean the outdoor condenser to remove debris like grass clippings from the fins. Make this part of your weekly landscaping chore and call it done.
Replace the Filter
Your HVAC equipment comes with a replaceable filter. Replace this filter every 30 days to keep fresh air circulating through the house and prevent unnecessary strain on the system. A dirty filter not only pollutes the indoor air. It also makes it difficult to heat or cool your home. Some HVAC equipment uses reusable filters. If your system has this filter type, refer to its manufacturer instructions for cleaning instructions.
