GET A JUMP ON SUMMER
Spring is the best time to prepare your home for the hot summer months ahead. Here are a few fast and affordable ways to keep your home cooler this summer.
CHANGE FILTERS
Start by changing filters in your heating/cooling system. Changing them regularly as recommended by the manufacturer can help systems run efficiently!
TEST YOUR AIR CONDITIONER
Next change your thermostat over to “cool” and test the system by turning the temperature down. If the air conditioner does not turn on, make sure no breakers are tripped. If you can’t figure out the problem, call your heating and air conditioning repair person. Calling early may keep you from making an “emergency” call when the temperatures are soaring and the repair people are busy.
CHECK FOR PROPER ATTIC VENTILATION
Heat build up in your attic during summer months will cause your air conditioner to work extra hard to achieve ideal temperatures. Proper attic ventilation can dramatically reduce heat build up and keep rooms cooler for less. Learn more about attic ventilation here.
