Do you experience unseasonable high utility bills in the summertime? If so, there is something you can do to keep cooling costs at bay: clean your air conditioner. Below are some tips on how to keep it squeaky clean.
Change the Air Filter
A clogged or dirty air filter can prohibit airflow. In return, this forces
your air conditioner to work harder. It’s easy to see how this cycle
can burn a hole in your pocket. To prevent this, change your air filter
at least once a month during the summer.
Clean the Outdoor Unit
Central air conditioners have an outdoor unit. These air conditioners
experience wear and tear because they are exposed to the elements. It
is important to give your outdoor unit a thorough cleaning. Removing debris
from your A/C unit will improve its performance.
Schedule Professional Maintenance
Having scheduled maintenance performed by one of our NATE certified technicians
will do more than keep your air conditioner clean. It will also help extend
the lifespan of your unit.
Our air tune-up and maintenance technicians wear shoe covers, put down drop cloths, are trained to perform the work you need and will thoroughly clean up the work area. Call (703) 270-0881 to schedule service.
