Well spring has sprung but there is still time to get these things checked off your Honey-do list that will help your HVAC system through what is predicted to be a record breaking summer!
*Turn off the AC before mowing the lawn to prevent grass and dirt from being drawn into the unit.
*If your outdoor unit is in direct sunlight for more than 2 hours a day, plant nearby shrubs to provide shade. This produces a cooler running temperature which will increase the unit’s efficiency.
*However, if you do decide to plant those shrubs make sure they remain trimmed at least 18 inches away from the sides of the unit to prevent an obstruction of airflow.
*Check all of your air vents to ensure they are open, clean and unblocked.
*Once your spring lawn maintenance is complete, double check your drain line to confirm that it didn’t become buried in the process. Drain lines should be cleared a minimum of once a year to prevent summer breakdowns.
