Air Conditioner Service: Make the Most of Springtime Efficiency

April 08, 2015

It’s spring in Lake Forest and that means it’s time to schedule air conditioner service. The weather is getting warmer and people are getting spring fever. Why not add some cost savings to your reasons for excitement.

You shouldn’t have to think about your air conditioner’s efficiency every time you turn it on. You should be able to just revel in the cool air without worrying you’ve been running it too often. We’ve gathered up some ideas for you to regulate the efficiency of your air conditioner this spring and summer.

Service

To be certain your air conditioner is operating at peak efficiency all summer, have an air conditioner service completed on your system right before spring begins. Having air conditioner service done not only helps increase your system’s efficiency but by checking and changing your filters, can battle seasonal allergies by eliminating dust and dirt built up in your system, which flows throughout your house. This clog can cause respiratory discomfort and illnesses while also reducing your system’s efficiency.

While scheduled regular air conditioner service obviously offers a lot of benefits, one of the most significant benefits is reducing the likelihood of your system needing a potentially costly AC repair. Regular service will keep your systems functioning properly, which helps the life of your system.

Crack a Window

There are times when the weather in Lake Forest is idyllic. These are the days when you can open your windows and sleep comfortably with a cool breeze. This lets your air conditioner rest overnight and in the morning when you close the windows and trap the cool air inside.

Make Your Thermostat Work for You

Lake Forest can get hot in the summer. It only makes sense you’d want to crank the AC up so you can always walk into a refreshingly cool home. This strategy isn’t the best for keeping your system functioning efficiently because keeping your thermostat set to a higher temperature in the summer is of utmost importance to keeping your energy costs lower. If you can keep the variation in the outside temperature and your indoor temperature smaller, you will decrease your energy use, and therefore your bill.

With routine air conditioner service and making minor adjustments in your routine, it’s easy to keep your air conditioner at max efficiency this summer in Lake Forest. You’ll keep your home and your wallet comfortable. Schedule your air conditioner service now and feel the benefits immediately.
