Time For a Tune-Up?
An AC system is only as strong as its weakest link, but the air conditioner
unit itself is still the most important piece. As we’ve mentioned
in previous blogs, it’s a good idea to regularly maintain your air
conditioner. If you haven’t been doing this, however, there is no
better time than now! Air conditioners can take a beating during the winter
months, so it’s good to have them inspected by a professional to
make sure everything’s in working order.
Get Your Home Ready
It’s hard to imagine life without an air conditioner here in Murrieta,
but the summer heat can make your electrical bills soar. To maximize both
the effectiveness and the efficiency of your AC system, there are a few
easy and relatively inexpensive things you can do:
- Invest in some heavy curtains – and most importantly, make sure they
are shut during the day!
- Make sure air leaks in your home are properly sealed. This includes around
windows, under external doors, and in your attic.
- Use a programmable thermostat. These devices make it easy to keep the air
off when you aren’t home, which can yield major savings.
Clean Your Ducts & Filters!
Keeping your ductwork clean and your filters fresh isn’t just necessary
for peak performance – it’s also important for your health.
As a standard practice, you should at least check your air filters every
month, and clean or replace them often.
