It is important to take care of your appliances that are in your home. They are part of what makes our lives comfortable and convenient. If you don’t take care of them they can become damaged and lose their efficiency. This is why it is important to not only know what stresses your appliance out but what you can do to prevent them. One appliance that uses quite a lot of energy is the HVAC unit. More specifically the cooling part of the unit. That is why you should be ready to make some adjustments to your system before you turn it back on. With the temperatures starting to warm up it is a great time to change some bad habits that you might have when using your unit.

Air Supply Heating & Air Conditioning Lists Tips to Make Your Central AC Unit More Efficient

Prevent Unwanted Heat: The first and easiest way to stop stressing out your air conditioning unit is to prevent heat in your house. When you have less heat in the house the unit has to work less and that will allow it to run for a longer life. It also will lessen the amount of energy that you use which you will see on your bill. The best way to do that is to start with where the sun is coming into the house. If you don’t have blinds it is a great time to have them installed. They are perfect when there are bursts of sunlight flooding in your house. These beams of light will cause heat in that particular room. You can also help with ceiling fans that will circulate the air in the room and even out the temperature of the air.
Programmable Thermostat: If you have a digital thermostat you want to take advantage of the settings that it offers. You can set a schedule for the system to run so that it is not cooling the house all the way down when everyone is at school or work. It can switch back to a comfortable temperature just before you know you will be there. This is a great way to keep your unit from having to overwork and being stressed out.
Change AC Filters Often: It may surprise you to know that the filters play a huge role in the efficiency of your HVAC unit. The air has to have a clear path to move through the house and through the air ducts. The filter is the path that it has to travel and when it is clogged the air is not able to move freely. The best way to combat that is to ensure that you keep your filters changed out often and when necessary. The filters will become full of dust, dirt and allergens that need to be taken down and out of the house to allow the unit to work efficiently.
