Planning yearly AC maintenance is useful.
Tune-ups keep your AC unit in Pierre working at its top performance while keeping energy needs low. It also can even help lengthen its life span.
While there are a few things you can do by yourself, you should call the Experts, like the ones at Peitz Service Experts, for AC examinations and upkeep.
Here are a couple steps you can do by yourself as you prepare for summer.
Get Your AC Service Booked
Spring is a period of revival, and to many that includes a large amount of indoors, garage and yard cleaning. With the warmer temperatures near, it’s also a good idea to add AC service on that listing.
Spring is the best time to get your air conditioning equipment cleaned and inspected. Delaying to switch it on until the first sweltering day of the season can be risky. If you have to schedule service or installation, you may be waiting awhile for a technician. And that may get awfully unpleasant.
And for people with allergies, being ahead of the game with a fresh air conditioning system will help ensure the best indoor air quality while it’s pollen season.
Also, cooling upkeep can be required for your unit’s manufacturer warranty or any extra extended warranty.
Can I Do a Tune-Up Alone?
There are steps that you can complete to help keep your AC equipment in the top order:
- Change your air filter advises each month or two. This is especially crucial if you suffer from allergies or have a dog in your house.
- Lawn work around the outdoor condenser. Ensure there’s no grass, weeds or bushes near your cooling equipment. We suggest keeping 2–3 feet of free area. You should also get rid of any leaves or twigs that have fallen into your equipment, since this could impede airflow.
