As the sweltering heat of summer approaches, the importance of a well-functioning air conditioning system cannot be overstated. HVAC systems help maintain indoor comfort during extreme weather conditions, but they require regular maintenance and proper care to function efficiently, much like any complex machinery.

Amy Grant

It was so easy to schedule this appointment online and the service happened quickly. I sent my online request on Friday night and Henry was at my door first thing Saturday morning. Henry was courteous, polite, and friendly and explained what needed to be done. The first repair made didn’t 100% solve our toilet issue, so he made sure to recheck everything and ended up replacing a part that he needed to go out and get. Henry was respectful of my time and my home and I appreciate that. Will definitely use this company again!

Neglecting these responsibilities can lead to reduced performance, higher energy bills, and even complete system failures. In this brief article brought to you by Service Hero, we help you ensure your air conditioner runs smoothly throughout the summer.

Regularly clean or replace air filters

Air filters play a pivotal role in maintaining indoor air quality and the overall efficiency of your HVAC system. Over time, these filters can become clogged with dust, pollen, and other particulates, effectively restricting airflow and forcing the system to work harder. 

We Provide All Types of Professional HVAC Services

Tailored services to meet your specific needs and budget, ensuring optimal performance and comfort.

It is recommended to check your air filters every month during the peak cooling season and replace or clean them as necessary. For most systems, this means replacing the filters every 2 to 3 months. High-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters, which can capture smaller particles, may need to be replaced more frequently.

Inspect and clean the condenser coils

The condenser coils found in the outdoor unit of your air conditioner are responsible for releasing the heat absorbed from your home’s interior. Over time, dirt and debris built up on these coils can reduce the unit’s efficiency. 

It is advisable to inspect the coils at least once a year and clean them as needed. Be sure to turn off the power to the unit before performing any cleaning to avoid damage or injury.

Check and clean the evaporator coils as well

The evaporator coil, found within the indoor unit, absorbs heat from the air in your home. Like the condenser coils, it can also accumulate dirt and reduce efficiency. Inspect and clean the evaporator coil annually to help maintain optimal performance. 

Property owners typically leave this work to professional HVAC technicians since accessing and cleaning the evaporator coil can be more complex than cleaning the condenser coils.

Ensure proper airflow around the outdoor unit

For optimal performance, your air conditioner’s outdoor unit needs ample space to breathe. Make sure there are no obstructions such as plants, debris, or other objects within a two-foot radius around the unit. Trim any overgrown vegetation and regularly clear away leaves or other debris that may have accumulated. This allows for proper airflow and reduces the strain on your system.

Assess and seal ductwork

Leaky ducts can significantly impact the efficiency of your HVAC system by causing cool air to escape and warm air to enter. This not only reduces comfort but also increases energy consumption and costs. 

Inspect your ductwork for any visible leaks or damage, and seal them using duct tape or mastic sealant. Professional duct sealing services can provide a more thorough and permanent solution, ensuring your system operates efficiently.

Hire a uniformed and trained HVAC professional

While many maintenance tasks can be performed by homeowners, certain aspects of HVAC care require professional expertise. Scheduling an annual maintenance visit from a qualified HVAC technician can help identify and address potential issues before they become major problems.

If you have any questions or concerns, the professionals at Service Hero are happy to help. Our live representatives are on standby to help, schedule an appointment, or arrange urgent assistance for as soon as possible.
