5 Ways to Make Sure Your Air Conditioner is Ready for Fall

October 24, 2016

There are likely some things you do to get yourself ready for fall in Lincoln, like get your long sleeved shirts out of storage and plan your Instagram-worthy pumpkin carving. There are some things you might forget about while getting ready for fall – like your air conditioner. We’re about to say goodbye to warm weather and we’re headed into cooler months. Along with your annual air conditioner service from AW Heating & Air Conditioning, we have a few tips that may help keep you comfortable and get your air conditioner ready for the change in season.

  1. Check and Swap Out Your Air Filter
    This is easy advice for every season in Lincoln. Before you completely stop using your air conditioner, go switch out your filter from dusty to clean. A dusty filter means your air conditioner has to run harder to keep you comfortable which can negatively affect your comfort and mean higher bills.
  2. Unblock Vents and Registers
    As you’ve rearranged furniture or brought more into the house, ensure you haven’t blocked any of your vents. A blocked vent might drive up your utility expenses.
  3. Schedule Annual Air Conditioner Service
    Fall is the best time in Lincoln to get your air conditioner inspected by one of our professional technicians. We will do a thorough inspection of your unit and be sure it will be in good working order for the coming cooler months in Lincoln. Routine air conditioner service can help you get the most out of your air conditioner’s performance, and could also affect the life of your system. Not to mention that a pretty high percentage of the emergency calls we get over these next few months are a result of a lack of maintenance.

We want you to enjoy every portion of the season in comfort. If you have any questions for us about getting your home ready for fall or need to schedule your routine air conditioner service give the professionals at AW Heating & Air Conditioning a call at 402-438-7992.
