Winter AC Preparation can help the longevity of your a\/c unit during winter<\/h2><\/div>
\"Winter<\/span><\/div>

The winter months are upon us and for many of us those months can be pretty brutal. Winter AC preparation with routine maintenance and preventive action can help the longevity of your a\/c unit during the winter months.<\/p>\n

Before the cold winters brace hits, test your furnace. \u00a0Ideally you would like to choose a day where you can open all windows and doors. \u00a0After a furnace sits for a while, once turned back on it can release a certain odor. \u00a0Most furnaces come with a warranty. \u00a0You want to make sure during the warranty you are having your furnace checked.<\/p>\n

Make sure your thermostat is working properly. \u00a0If you have a programmed thermostat in your home be sure to check all settings.<\/p>\n

Most people ask about covering your outside unit. You do not have to cover your outside unit. \u00a0A\/C units are built to with stand harsh weather. \u00a0Majority times, the cover creates a home for critters that can cause harm to the a\/c unit wires if chewed.<\/p>\n

Always replace any old filters. \u00a0Be sure to inspect the area in which the filter is placed. \u00a0Notify a technician if you see any mold or detached wires.<\/p>\n
