Summertime HVAC checkup

By DinaG | May 7, 2008

HVAC Checkup….

  It getting warm out there, and some will be tempted to startup the air conditioning for the summer.  Here are some important tips.

HVAC System Check

  • Have a HVAC professional do a routine-check before the summer heat waves arrive.
  • Vacuum return and/or supply air vents if they are dirty.
  • Replace the furnace filter. Make future replacements as needed or directed by your furnace manufacturer. Selecting a filter with a higher Merv rating will improve your air quality.
  • Reprogram your thermostat settings for Spring/Summer. Recommendations are to set the temperature no lower than 78 degrees in the summer.
  • If your thermostat uses batteries now may be the time to replace them.
