We’ve compiled an HVAC checklist to ensure your system is prepared for the warmer weather!

• Change your furnace filter every 30- 90 days  (every 30 days if you have pets)
• Remove any plants, weeds, and debris from within 2 feet of your outdoor unit
• Clean and de-clutter your home to decrease the chance of dirt and dust buildup within your system. Include parts of your home that are not cleaned often like curtains and picture frames.
• Test your AC on a day that is at least 65° before the super hot days arrive.
• Caulk windows and doors around your home to keep humidity and heat out.
• Clean the air vents in every room to allow for better airflow.
• Remove the outdoor AC cover (if applicable).
• Consider upgrading your thermostat.

The US Environmental Protection agency, having already phased out Class I ozone-depleting substances (ODS), is now phasing out Class II ODS including R-22, by January of 2020. This means that R-22, a refrigerant still used in existing air conditioners, can no longer be manufactured or imported into the US. The age of your system and cost of needed repairs have always been factors in determining when it is time for a new air conditioner installation. The phase-out of R-22 is increasing the number of people having to replace their system.
