TAKE REASONABLE STEPS TO AVOID PROBLEMS WITH YOUR HAVOC SYSTEM •

First, get all of the details regarding a broken system before calling for repair. Take a look at the system or the owner's manual to find the name and model number. This will let you know that you're able to give the contractor the information that can help them. Check the whole house before you call for help. Note which rooms are hot and which are cold. That will help your repairman figure out where the problem is, and how he can fix it easily and quickly.

Before you choose an HVAC contractor, have an idea in your mind of what needs to be done. You can't get a decent estimate over a telephone, so disregard those numbers and wait until they view your system. If you can't explain anything to them, this will be even more difficult. Learn this information to start with.


HVAC LOCATION •

When you are choosing a location for the outdoor compressor unit, it's preferable to use a shaded area. In this way, it will be cooling air that is already somewhat cooled. This saves energy

If the condenser for your HVAC system is located outside, make sure you clear away any debris that might settle in or around it. Particularly after bad weather, you should inspect your unit. It can overheat, leading to disaster within your system. Don't get grass clippings on your outside unit. Have the grass shoot in the opposite direction. This also applies to leaf blowing and any other yard work that results in debris.

As you notice the tress begin to lose their leaves, keep an eye on your outdoor condenser unit. Make certain you are cleaning the fan grill often if trees nearby have leaves that are falling. If your fan is obstructed, it can keep your system from working properly.


ADDITIONAL TIPS TO MANAGE YOUR HVAC SYSTEM •

If the house is yours or you're permitted to, replace the windows that are single pane with windows that are double pane. Double pane windows can minimize the use of your air conditioner in hot weather since they keep the indoor air cooler. This also helps retain heated air during the colder months.

It is a bad feeling to return home to find that the vents have no air coming from them. Then thinking about repair costs makes it even worse. But, by using these tips, you can avoid this type of situation. Remember these tips when it comes to doing HVAC system maintenance. 24/7 Emergency Service Available Broward 954-428-7877 Palm Beach 561-994-9008 1471 SW 30th Ave #7, Deerfield Beach, FL 33442 Available on Nights, Weekends and Holidays.
