Prepare Your HVAC System for Summer

April 27, 2020

As the colder months of winter start to wind down, and the chirping birds and budding flowers of spring reveal themselves, your mind is probably turning to the heat of summer and whether or not your HVAC system is up to the task of keeping you comfortable through another hot season.

Your neighborhood partners at Kenny’s Air Conditioning & Heating Services, Inc. know just how hot and humid a Florida summer can get, so you can trust us when it comes to HVAC maintenance in Tampa, FL. Below is some information to help you understand the importance of seasonal HVAC maintenance.

Regular maintenance pays off

With any sort of home appliance system, the key is always going to be regular preventative maintenance, preferably with a qualified and experienced company, and the same is very true when it comes to your HVAC system. Consistent cleaning of the system, plus replacement of the filters, is going to go a long way towards keeping the system up to speed. If you have a clogged filter you can really increase the workload on the system, which will result in both a warmer home when you want it to be cooler and in higher energy bills that can hit your wallet.

An easy way to keep up with HVAC maintenance in Tampa, FL is to replace your filter regularly—you can even set a reminder in your phone to change it on a consistent basis. Filters are sold in bulk for cheap at most home improvement stores, and this is likely one of the easiest home maintenance tasks you can complete.

Check around the condenser

If it’s been a few months since you last turned on the air conditioner, then you want to look around the condenser unit to make sure everything is good to go. Debris around this component can really drag on your unit, so keep an eye out for loose debris like grass, twigs, leaves or even small animal nests that can be set up during periods of dormancy. If you start the condenser up when there’s foreign objects inside, you can really be creating a significant problem for yourself, because these seemingly small objects can cause serious trouble and significant damage.
