This time of year is perfect for preparing your home for the colder months ahead and ensuring everything is in top shape. Ignoring fall maintenance could lead to costly repairs or discomfort during winter. Let’s dive into why fall maintenance is so important and what areas to focus on.
Fall Maintenance Tips
Preventing Costly Repairs
- Addressing minor issues now can prevent larger, more expensive problems later.
Maximizing Energy Efficiency
- As the temperatures drop, your heating system will be working harder. Performing simple fall maintenance can help keep your energy bills manageable. Check your heating system now to ensure it’s running efficiently. Replace air filters, and consider scheduling a professional inspection by Action Air to detect any potential issues before winter hits.
Warranty
- Many HVAC manufacturers require annual preventative maintenance in order to maintain the unit’s warranty. Check your warranty to determine if/when maintenance is required by an HVAC professional.
- Action Air will check your system for problems, adjust loose bolts and wires, and address any other issues you may have.
Fall Maintenance Tips You Can Do Yourself
- Make sure any combustible products are stored away from your heating system.
- Inspect your air filter and replace it if needed. A clean air filter will work to reduce indoor contaminants throughout the winter season, as well as facilitate proper airflow into your home.
- Make sure your registers are clear of obstruction. Move heavy furniture and other items that may be blocking registers, preventing heat from reaching your living spaces and potentially straining your system.
