Prevent Heatwave Failures with Early Maintenance

Why ACs Break When Everyone Turns Them On
Spring has sprung in the Old Bridge, NJ area. As the birds begin to chirp and the weather starts to heat up, it’s getting closer to time for spring cleaning.

Spring HVAC Cleaning & Maintenance To-Dos
- Replace the air filter – One of the biggest mistakes many home and business owners make is failing to replace the HVAC system air filters. Failing to replace these filters leads to polluted indoor air, dirt and debris buildup in the system, and an inefficient system.
- Install a programmable thermostat – Installing a programmable thermostat will help the environment and help you save money. Thermostats range in price and features – ask our technicians what they recommend. Even if you’re not replacing your thermostat, at least replace your batteries.
- Do a test run – Before the weather starts to really heat up, it’s important to do a test run of your system. Turn on your air conditioning to make sure everything feels and sounds right. If anything goes wrong, call our HVAC professionals for repairs right away.
- Call a professional for more in-depth HVAC maintenance – While replacing your air filter, installing a new thermostat, and restarting your AC system are easier to do on your own, you may want a professional to check out your system for a more in-depth maintenance check (for things such as duct cleaning).
