Air Conditioner Maintenance

Rollow these tips for keeping your AC running smoothly, so your home will stay cool all season long. What you’ll want to do it remove any debris or gunk from the top and exterior parts of your air conditioning unit.  It’s likely that through the seasons, foliage, sticks, and debris have found their way inside and around the unit.  And since any reduction in air flow through the fins can reduce efficiency, if you notice any bent fins, try using a knife but don’t insert the knife more than 1/2 .  Be gentle so that the tubing embedded within the fins is not damaged.  Next, vacuum the unit.   If you’re not comfortable doing any of this, or you don’t have the time, it would be a great idea for you to schedule a service call for your unit by contacting a certified HVAC technician.
