Steps to Get Your Air Conditioner Ready for Hot Weather



Hot and humid weather is on the way, and it's time to think about our air conditioners. Just like any other appliance, it is important to do regular maintenance to ensure that it will continue to serve your household for as long as possible, and will run with maximum efficiency. It's not a difficult job, and your small investment will pay off in the long run. Follow these steps each spring to keep your central air system running great. These tips were provided by an air conditioning service in Greenbrae CA.
  1. Turn off the power to the unit, either via the plug outside or by flipping the circuit breaker inside the house.
  2. Clean leaves, grass clippings, or other debris from around the outside unit, also called the compressor or condenser.
  3. Remove the outer case of the compressor and use a vacuum with a soft brush attachment to vacuum the fins. This job can be done several times a year, especially after a heavy pollen season.
