May 17, 2023
Your heating system is essential to keeping your family and house guests cozy during the cold winter months. With the season of family gatherings and holiday parties upon us, don’t make the mistake of putting off regular HVAC maintenance. Our experts at Yes! want to give you a few simple tips to keep your HVAC system running smoothly during the most hectic time of the year.
Maintain a regular maintenance schedule.
The holidays can be a busy time of the year with shopping, gatherings and preparation for the New Year. So you don’t have to worry this season, create a care schedule for regular monthly maintenance for your heating and cooling system. This can solve reoccurring problems throughout the year, or stop them from happening altogether. Monthly maintenance is quick and easy, and your bank account will thank you in the long run.
Make sure your vents are clear
Check your vents regularly to ensure they are clear of clutter and trash. You don’t want your HVAC to work harder than it needs to. This simple step can help avoid major issues in the longrun.
Keep up with changing your air filters
At Yes!, we’re always talking to our customers about air filters. This is such a simple step that most homeowners forget or leave off their to-do list. We recommend replacing your air filters every three months. When dust and debris builds up, your HVAC system must work harder to pass air through the vents. When your system is working over time, you can experience higher heating and cooling costs as well as excessive wear and tear. New filters allow your system to work properly and efficiently, and your family to breathe cleaner air.
Be aware of seasonal energy needs
The holidays can be a stressful time with increased spending and time off work. Don’t let your HVAC system be another factor in your stress. Your heating and cooling system needs will change as the weather changes. Become aware of the seasonal tactics you can use to control your monthly energy costs. You can start by adjusting ceiling fans, using attic and whole house fans, and changing your thermostat upon weather change. Using these tactics will ensure your family is comfortable without wasting energy and money.
