Be sure to keep leaves that may fall from trees from collecting on or around the system. These may clog condensers or fans and restrict airflow. Be sure that gutters above the unit are clear and free flowing. Water overflowing into the system can cause electrical problems and icing problems for heat pumps.
Be sure that your home is properly insulated. Also, be sure that doors and windows do not leak air. Even more important than window and door leaks is duct system leakage. That will waste more energy because the duct system is under pressure. This can also affect indoor air quality. Use programmable thermostats to set the temperature back when you're gone for a few hours. Keep filters clean, and have systems tuned up twice a year for maximum efficiency.
Fossil fuel furnaces can emit Carbon Monoxide (CO), which is an odorless deadly gas. Be sure to have your home tested for CO and have CO detectors installed.
The most common issue our technicians find is a blocked filter. The lack of proper airflow will cause your system to struggle.
If you are using disposable filters, they should be changed every 30 days.
Our experts are here to help with all your HVAC needs.
