As a homeowner, there are some requirements and steps that you must take before the transition of seasons. Educating yourself on these tasks and making sure that you do your part to get them done will help your home stay in the best possible condition. And lucky for you, we are here to help! Below is a springtime HVAC maintenance checklist that will remind you of all the necessary steps to take to ensure your system is ready for the season ahead.
Schedule HVAC System Maintenance
This might be a maintenance task that is just easier for you to hire a professional to complete. If so, make sure you do your due diligence and ask the right questions to find the best HVAC technician for your home. Hiring somebody might even be the first task on your checklist so that you don’t have to worry about any of the others.
Replace Your Air Filters
Ignoring or forgetting to change your air filters is not something you should do. Prioritizing this task will keep your system from clogging and reducing airflow. Over time, the filter collects debris, which is why clogging and dirtiness happens. Ignoring this can not only make your home unsafe, but it can also increase your energy costs overall.
Clean Around AC Unit
Depending on the weather, it might be a good time in the near future for you to go outside and clean off your AC unit. With the unpredictable winter weather, who knows what your unit has gone through. All you have to do is take off the cover and make sure that you clean it off, as well as clean the area around it. If you fail to do this, your unit will not work to its greatest capacity.
It is important to note that not completing this maintenance is not an option. Following this springtime HVAC maintenance checklist will help you make sure that you do everything you need to do.
