Top 5 Tips For Extending The Life Of Your HVAC Unit
HVAC repair and replacement can get expensive. You can extend your Rockledge HVAC’s lifespan with these five tips:
Schedule Regular Maintenance
- This includes inspecting, cleaning, and tuning up the system at least once a year.
- Address any issues found during maintenance promptly to prevent them from escalating.
Change or Clean Filters Regularly
- Replace disposable filters or clean reusable filters every 1-3 months, depending on the type of filter and your usage.
- Clean filters improve airflow, reduce strain on the system, and enhance indoor air quality.
Keep the System Clean
- Keep the area around your HVAC unit free from debris, dust, and obstructions.
- Clean the outdoor condenser unit by removing leaves, dirt, and debris to ensure proper airflow.
Use a Programmable Thermostat
- Install a programmable or smart thermostat to optimize your HVAC system's operation.
- Set the thermostat to adjust temperatures when you're away or asleep to reduce wear and tear on the system.
Seal and Insulate Your Home
- Ensure your home is well-insulated and sealed to prevent air leaks. This reduces the workload on your HVAC system.
- Check and seal gaps around windows, doors, and ducts to improve efficiency.
