What Can Be Done to Prevent AC Problems?

An inoperable air conditioner can become more than an inconvenience. Extremely hot outdoor temperatures affect indoor air quality and lead to serious health conditions when you don’t have a working cooling system. Fortunately, there are a few simple steps you can take to keep your AC in optimal condition throughout the year.

Check Your Filter Regularly

Replacing a dirty air filter might not seem like a big deal, but it’s an essential part of caring for your HVAC system. Even though the best HVAC company in Titusville will replace the pleated filter during your AC maintenance, we recommend replacing the pleated filter once  every 3 months. Replacing it more often if the pleated filter collects heavy amounts of dirt and debris.

A dirty air filter restricts airflow, forcing the system to work harder to meet your cooling needs.This process accelerates the rate of wear-and-tear damage, causing parts to malfunction sooner than expected. On the flipside, not having a pleated filter can cause  more issues due to dirt and debris passing through and collecting on the inside of the unit.

Check The Outside Unit

The outdoor AC unit needs adequate clearance around to properly ventilate air effectively, removing loose debris like leaves, grass clippings or twigs. Then, trim back any vegetation growing within 2 feet of the unit.
