HVAC System 3 Tips for Summer Preparation

Summer is almost here. We have already experienced summer temperatures. All we need now is to prepare our HVAC system to be in prime condition for the summer. Follow these three summer HVAC maintenance tips, and you don’t have to worry about the summer heat.

1. Change the filter

Changing the filter on your HVAC system is a basic necessity. Not only during summer but through all the seasons. A fresh filter will allow the air circulates better, and your system operates more efficiently.

2. Clean around the outdoor unit

During wintertime, dirt, leaves, and branches have probably collected around the outside unit. That’s not good because cool air can’t circulate through the ducts.

3. Duct cleaning

Duct cleaning is basically like tooth brushing for vents. You should choose a regular time for duct cleaning, for example, early fall,
winter, spring, and summer. It is best to let a professional HVAC technician do it for you. What you can do is unscrew the registers and wipe the covers.
