While the first official day of fall may not occur until September 23, it definitely doesn’t mean you need to wait that long before scheduling a maintenance check on your HVAC unit.

Our team at Teems Electric wants you to think about ways you can start preparing your HVAC unit now for the upcoming fall season so that it is ready to heat your home or office when the cooler temperatures begin to arrive.

Start Preparing Your HVAC System for Fall

Let’s take a look at some ways you can start getting your HVAC system ready for the cooler temperatures.

Change Air Filters

When was the last time you checked your air filters? When you have dirty air filters, you can run into a number of issues with your HVAC system, which can cause your home to not be heated or cooled properly, as well as turn into a higher energy bill for you each month.

Therefore, it is important to make sure you are changing your air filters once a month (or at most once every three months) to keep your HVAC system working effectively and efficiently.

Prevent Energy Waste

Do you have any drafts or air leaks occurring in your home? The last thing you want is for heat to leave your home through a window or door leak. Therefore, now is the time to prevent drafts with caulk and weather-stripping to ensure the heat stays in your home!

Start Clean!

When you have an outdoor HVAC unit, Mother Nature can certainly do her part in creating debris in and around your HVAC system, which can cause damage. Take time this weekend to remove and clean your outdoor unit so that your HVAC unit is ready to work in the new season!

Call Us for a CheckUp!

It never fails. A new season arrives, and your HVAC unit decides to not work. Do not let this happen to you.

Instead, stay ahead of the game by scheduling a maintenance check to ensure your HVAC system is working properly, as well as to catch any issues sooner rather than later!
