Springtime
is almost over, which means the hot summer months are just around the
corner. Before the heat wave takes its toll in your home, crank up
your air
conditioning now to find out if repair work is necessary. You
wouldn’t want to go without an air conditioner when the temperature
is at its hottest.
If
you notice that your air conditioning unit is not cooling your home
enough, check the specifications. Larger spaces require larger air
conditioning units. If size is the problem, you can opt to purchase
more units to increase the cooling in your home, or you can replace
your current equipment with a bigger one.
If
size is not the issue, it could very likely be a dirty filter.
Experts in HVAC system maintenance suggest to check the filters when
the air conditioning system isn’t working as efficiently as it
should. Dirty filters do not only cause harmful pollutants to
circulate around the house, they also stop cool air from flowing in.
Experts advise to replace AC filters at least four times a year for
best results.
An
air conditioning unit’s air condenser is located outside the house
or building. It will help to position this on a shaded area to avoid
being exposed to sunlight, preferably under trees or shrubs. This can
increase the cooling capacity of the system by ten percent.
