5 HVAC Tips for Mothers
Mother’s Day is a special occasion to celebrate and honor the hard-working and loving mothers in our lives. At Western Heating & Air Conditioning, we want to take this opportunity to recognize all the amazing mothers out there who do so much for their families. From juggling work and home responsibilities to ensuring their children’s comfort and safety, moms truly do it all.
As an HVAC company, we understand how important a functioning heating and cooling system is for maintaining a comfortable home environment and keeping your family safe and healthy. So, to show our appreciation for all the amazing mothers out there, we have put together some helpful tips to help you take care of your HVAC system and keep your home comfortable year-round.
Regular HVAC maintenance is key
One of the most important things you can do to ensure your HVAC system is functioning properly is to schedule regular maintenance. A professional HVAC technician can inspect and tune-up your system, helping to prevent breakdowns and extend the lifespan of your equipment. As a busy mom, it can be easy to overlook HVAC maintenance, but it’s an important investment that can save you money in the long run.
Change your air filters
Changing your air filters regularly is another important aspect of HVAC maintenance. Dirty filters can restrict airflow, reducing the efficiency of your system and causing it to work harder than necessary. This can lead to higher energy bills and more wear and tear on your equipment. As a rule of thumb, you should change your filters every one to three months, depending on how often you use your system.
Keep your outdoor unit clear
Your outdoor HVAC unit plays a critical role in the operation of your system, so it’s important to keep it clear of debris and other obstructions. Clear away any leaves, grass clippings, or other debris that may have accumulated around the unit, and make sure there are at least two feet of clearance on all sides to allow for proper airflow.
Invest in a programmable thermostat
A programmable thermostat is a great investment for any busy mom. With a programmable thermostat, you can set your HVAC system to automatically adjust the temperature based on your family’s schedule. This can help you save money on energy bills by avoiding unnecessary heating or cooling when no one is home.
Don’t ignore unusual sounds or smells
If you notice unusual sounds or smells coming from your HVAC system, don’t ignore them. These could be signs of a potential problem that requires professional attention. Calling a technician at the first sign of trouble can help prevent further damage and ensure your system is functioning properly.
