HOME IMPROVEMENT TIPS
get your air conditioner tested right now...
BEFORE THE SUMMER REALLY HEATS UP! The truth is the best time to get your air conditioner tested is right now, before the summer really heats up. Sadly, the day most people find out their air conditioner isn't working is generally during a day of blistering heat, which is of course, too late. So what are the benefits of regular maintenance? Regular maintenance on your air conditioner will save you from headaches, time, and money.
Headaches and Time The headaches and time quite honestly are dealing with your family when it's 100+ degrees outside and your air conditioner has stopped working. You're the one that will have to deal with finding that emergency repairman and waiting while the whole family suffers in the heat.
Money Regular maintenance on your air conditioner can help save you money as the repairman may be able to detect & fix small problems before they become big problems. This alone could save you hundreds of dollars in repairs. Well that was easy. Seriously, having yearly maintenance performed by a HVAC expert will save you not only money but also headaches. So what is maintenance, how expensive is it, and how often do I need it? Routine maintenance involves a heating and cooling expert coming out to your house and inspecting your system to restore peak performance. A good company should: • • • • • • • • • • •
Check Refrigerant Pressures Clean Outdoor Condenser Coil Monitor Voltage & Amps Check Superheat and Sub-cooling Clean & Inspect Blower Components Lubricate all Moving Parts Check Electrical Connections Monitor Air Conditioning Cycle Check Temperature Drop Replace Thermostat Batteries Clean or Replace Filters
Air conditioner maintenance is suggested once a year. In addition to your maintenance, the technician will also help you to know when repair or replacement is necessary. Replacing older cooling equipment can save you over 60% on your electric bill. The experts will help you understand your options when repair or replacement becomes necessary. In addition, they can offer helpful explanations and offer suggestions to help you save money through tax rebates, upgraded thermostats, recommendations for increased insulation, and a whole host of other tips that HVAC experts have. The bottom line is you spend a lot of money on keeping your house cool. You should start your summer with a checkup call to ensure peak performance. Your HVAC expert will be able to tune up your air conditioner and ensure your efficiency. If you need a replacement they will be able to offer you expert analysis so that you will get the system you need for your home. A good heating and cooling repair company will even give you back the price of the checkup back if you need a new air conditioner. Home Improvement Guide - Page 10

HOME IMPROVEMENT TIPS
The U.S. coastline gets struck by an average of How To Prepare Your 5 hurricanes every three years. Hurricanes Home For A Hurricane bring winds as high as 100 miles per hour and water surges reaching heights of 20 feet. These tropical cyclones can be dangerous, so it is smart to be prepared for hurricane season, which runs from June to November.
1. Understand that each hurricane is different, & be prepared for the worst. 2. Make a list of outdoor items, such as lawn furniture or yard tools, to bring inside during a hurricane watch.
3. Keep trees and shrubbery trimmed. 4. Make sure your gutters and drains are clear to prevent flooding during the long bouts of heavy rain that often accompany hurricanes.
5. Use permanent hurricane shutters on windows and doors.This is much safer & more effective than taping the glass, which does not prevent breakage. Protect the outside of windows with shutters or plywood.
6. Develop an evacuation plan. Contact your local emergency management office or local chapter of the American Red Cross for information about the safest evacuation routes and locations of nearby shelters.
7. Have blankets/sleeping bags available in case you need to go to a shelter. 8. Determine in advance what you will do with any pets. 9. Stock up on disaster supplies such as flashlights & extra batteries, a batteryoperated radio, a first aid kit, emergency food & water and a handheld can opener.
10. Invest in flood insurance for your home because home owner's policies do not cover the damage caused by hurricane-related floods. Home Improvement Guide - Page 26
