Winter is finally coming to an end, and spring is right around the corner! Warmer weather is on the way, and now is the perfect time to have your HVAC checked. Most people focus on the heating part of their system, but with warmer weather on the way, it is essential that the air conditioning is serviced and that it is in working order.
Air Filters
Your air filters need to be changed consistently. Airflow is important to the health of your HVAC system. If the airflow is slowed, it causes your system to work even harder. When this occurs, it leads to repairs and, over time, a new unit. It is best to set an alarm to change your air filters.
AC Checks
Your air conditioning has a lot of working components that should be checked before the hot weather hits. Your local HVAC specialist can provide maintenance to your air conditioning unit. They will check all parts and ensure it is working properly. It is best to have the air conditioning checked before the weather is too hot. You never want to have a broken A/C when the weather is hot.
Air Duct Cleaning
Air ducts are what carry heat and cold air to different parts of your home. If your air ducts are dirty, it not only affects the quality of your air but can also cause airflow issues. If this happens, it can cause your HVAC system to strain as it tries to cool your home. This can lead to significant damages.
Above are a few items that should be checked before Spring arrives. If your HVAC unit is not cooling properly, making noises, or freezing, contacting an HVAC specialist is important. Never run your HVAC unit if any of the above occurs, as it can cause even more damage.
