AAC Heating & Cooling Services brings you helpful tips to help prepare your HVAC for fall.

HVAC System—Preparing For Fall

CHECKING THE AIR FILTERS

Dirty air filters can result in several issues in your HVAC system. One of these issues is inconsistent heating.

To prepare for fall, change the air filters in your HVAC system so that it gets ready to work efficiently. Moreover, changing the air filters regularly will also ensure proper working of your HVAC system.

CLEAN THE OUTDOOR UNIT

For homeowners who have an outdoor unit, it is important that you keep it clean. If there is debris around your outdoor unit, it will block air flow. Moreover, dirt and leaves can also clog the coils and other parts of the outdoor unit.

To prevent air blockage and any damages, remove all dirt, debris, and leaves from around your outdoor unit.

PREVENT AIR LEAKS

It is also necessary to prevent energy waste in your home by sealing the doors and windows. Moreover, a leaky ductwork also needs to be sealed properly.

CHECK THE DETECTORS

The carbon monoxide and smoke detectors in your home are crucial devices for keeping you safe. To prepare for fall, replace the old batteries in the devices with new ones. Moreover, make sure to replace the alarms and detectors every 10 years to prevent faults and breakdowns.

In case you’re unsure when the alarms had been replaced last time, check the date of manufacture at the back of the alarm. To make sure they are working well, push the test buttons at the back of the device.

SCHEDULE A CHECKUP AND SERVICING

The best way you can prepare your HVAC system for fall is by scheduling a maintenance checkup and servicing with an HVAC service provider.
