Changing Out Your Air Filters
One of the easiest ways to ensure your HVAC system stays in tip-top shape is by changing its air filter regularly. Everyone’s home is different, and the frequency of how often you will need to change your filter will vary. Typically, replacements are done between 30 to 90 days. There are a few signs that indicate the need for a new filter. These signs include dusty and dirty vents, heavy build-up on your air filter, poor HVAC performance, and an unexpected increase in your electric bill. It is relatively easy to replace a filter, but certain circumstances might make it difficult for others. If you need help, do not hesitate to contact an HVAC expert. They can help you determine your HVAC system’s needs, provide you with the right filter, and install it for you in places where it might be hard to reach.
Make Sure Your Thermostat Is Working Properly
Replacing your filters and ensuring your HVAC system is frequently cleaned can help maximize your HVAC system’s ability to do what is expected. Additionally, it’s essential to check up on other elements tied to your HVAC system, like your thermostat. Just as dust can build up in every aspect of your home, it can envelop your thermostat system and cause it to glitch. Another contributing factor to thermostat glitches is inaccurate calibrations. Inaccurate calibrations can cause you to overrun your HVAC system and cost you unnecessary expenses. To ensure proper cleaning and thermostat calibration, reach out to an HVAC technician for help.
