As we enter into the new year, it’s time to start thinking of ways to upgrade, change, and improve your home. It is necessary to have your HVAC functioning year-round. Your HVAC system helps keep you warm in the winter and cool during the summer. With continuous usage such as this, as a homeowner, it is extremely important to do routine maintenance on your HVAC, ensuring that it will continue to run efficiently and properly without any problems. Here are some tips to help you stay up to date with HVAC maintenance in the New Year, which will improve your comfort, increase your convenience, and make your home more efficient.
Checking/Cleaning Your Air Filter
It is important to check your air filter monthly. Checking and changing your air filter is one of the simplest ways of doing HVAC maintenance. When your air filter is clean, it improves the quality of air flowing through your HVAC system and increases its efficiency. It’s recommended that you check and clean your air filter monthly while replacing it about once every three months. A clean filter is key in maintaining a functioning HVAC system.
Routine Check-Ups
Like most things in your home, routine maintenance is key in upholding the longevity and efficiency of your HVAC system. HVAC maintenance is vital in ensuring that your HVAC system runs smoothly and that minor issues are identified before they become major problems. Scheduling routine check-ups and constantly keeping your HVAC system up to date ensures that you’ll be able to continue benefitting from healthy heating and cooling systems.
Regulating Home Temperatures
We all have a set temperature that we find most comfortable in our homes. However, one part of maintaining your HVAC system includes operating it at a comfortable temperature and running it less frequently throughout the day. Installing a programmable thermostat that adjusts automatically throughout the day can assist with this, but you can also manually change the temperature in your home. When you allow the temperature in your home to stay a few degrees cooler during the winter and a few degrees warmer during the summer, your HVAC system runs less, uses less power, lasts longer, and you save more.
