Simple Tips and Tricks Offered by an HVAC Service Provider<\/strong><\/p>\n

Whether you have an HVAC system that cools and heats your whole-house, or just a one-room air conditioner system, try not to make it work harder than it needs to. Follow these HVAC service<\/a> tips to ensure your AC continues to run smoothly, so your home will remain cool all season long.<\/p>\n

Understanding How Your HVAC System Works<\/strong><\/p>\n

Most central air conditioners come in two parts, which include an exterior unit that houses the compressor, this will sit next to your home, the other part is the interior unit, that houses the evaporator, this is located in a central duct close to your furnace. If you have a heat pump instead, the interior unit is in the air handler.<\/p>\n

Keeping it Clean<\/strong><\/p>\n

Vacuum the fins in your HVAC unit with a soft-bristle brush. You need to practice caution here, as they are quite fragile and can be bent or crushed easily. On most units, you will need to unscrew and remove the metal box in order to get to them. If you are unsure, check with your owner’s manual for directions, and remove the box carefully to prevent damaging the fins.<\/p>\n

Fixing a Sinking Pad<\/strong><\/p>\n

The concrete pads that your home air conditioner and heat exchanger units sit on have a tendency to settle over the years. When there is no strain placed on the copper coolant tubes and electrical lines, and the unit remains level and dry and level, then a sunken pad can be left. However, when it continues to sink and starts to pull the lines tight, or when water puddles under or around the unit, then you will need to take action.<\/p>\n
