Change your ACā??s filters regularly
Depending on how frequently you use your air conditioning unit, you must change its filter every one to three months. Make certain that the filters you use are as efficient as possible. Filters help keep your air dust and dust mite free. As air passes through them continuously, the filter catches loose particles. After a month, the filter may become blocked, limiting your air flow.
Keep the area clean
To ensure healthy circulation of air, keep remains such as leaves or grass clippings away from your AC unitsā?? outside condenser and make certain the indoor vents are not clogged.
Clean your air conditioner periodically
AC units can easily become blocked with dust, mold and bacteria, which can both make your AC system less efficient and make you and your family sick. For safety, it's best to employ a professional air conditioning service to do the cleaning. These regular cleanings also make sure that your AC unit does not have to work too hard to maintain the desired temperature. Usage for an extended period of time can cause your AC to break down sooner.
Don't overwork system
When your AC runs continuously for extended periods of time, it can burn out or overheat. It is best to set your system to cool until a certain temperature instead of keeping the fan on. During the summer time, your AC should be set to 75 degrees and must be turned off or set to a higher temperature when the house is empty for long vacations.
Have your AC maintained by a professional HVAC company regularly
