Don't Neglect Your Air Conditioner

November 16, 2015

While the temperature is still fluxuating in Raleigh, it’s about time to think about preparing your air conditioner for the off season. Whether it’s with air conditioner service or by taking a couple easy steps before the temperatures drop one last time, you can help be sure your air conditioner is prepped to perform correctly when it heats up again.

  1. Now is the time to consider setting up air conditioner seasonal maintenance. Do it while it’s still mild, and not when the temperatures drop in Raleigh. Arranging a Precision Tune-Up now can help you take on a variety of essential air conditioner service and safety checks if needed, such as the inspection of electrical connections, equipment cleaning and swapping out your air filter —just to name a handful. You can schedule it while calling for your yearly furnace check up.

  2. Think about adding foam pipe covers for any of your uncovered exterior pipes. Foam pipe covers may be a big help in saving your pipes from freezing when the temperatures go down.

  3. Clear the area near your air conditioner to be sure there isn’t debris or leaves that could inhibit the performance of your air conditioner or the air conditioner technicians performing your air conditioner service. This is something you can do throughout the year, so aim to keep two to three feet of space around the air conditioner uninhibited from debris.

These are just three tips to help you get your air conditioner ready for some downtime this season. With seasons changing, it’s critical to keep your unused system in mind so that it can start strong when you begin utilizing it when it heats up.
