3. Professional installation: Always hire certified technicians for proper installation and optimal performance.

HVAC Repairs

2. Clean or replace filters: Do this every 1-3 months to improve air quality and system efficiency.
3. Check thermostat settings: Ensure your thermostat is programmed correctly for optimal comfort and energy savings.

Air Conditioning Service

1. Keep outdoor units clear: Remove debris and trim vegetation around your AC unit to ensure proper airflow.
2. Inspect ductwork: Look for leaks or damage in your ducts to prevent energy loss and improve system efficiency.
3. Clean air vents: Regularly dust and vacuum vents to maintain good air quality and circulation.

Air Conditioner Maintenance

1. Clean condenser coils: Gently clean the outdoor unit’s coils annually to improve efficiency.
2. Check refrigerant levels: Low refrigerant can indicate a leak and reduce system performance.
