Evaporator Coil Maintenance

The evaporator coil is the most vital component of any heating and cooling system.  What does it do? It transfers heat — plain and simple. The coils can get really dirty because they’re often difficult to access. When they become insulated with dirt, the airflow is restricted, which makes your unit waste energy. Servicing the evaporator coils yearly helps them to absorb heat properly. The coil fins are made of aluminum and they’re easily bent out of shape. Outdoor coils are especially susceptible to the environment and need to be serviced regularly. Cleaning your coils is one of the components that can help you lower your A/C cooling costs!

Rinse Your Condenser

Did you know that rinsing the coils of you’re AC condenser could save you up to $30 a month on your electric bill? When the condenser coils become bogged down with dirt and dust, your air conditioning unit has to work harder, which can create more problems in the future.  Ensure that your system is operating at its optimal performance by following these quicks steps for rinsing your condenser. 

Replace Filters

Cleaning or replacing filters monthly during the summer can decrease your energy use by up to 5-15%.  When filters become overwhelmed with dirt, the airflow is reduced.  Clean filters help to protect your cooling system from damage while also prolonging the life of your unit. It’s one of the least expensive things you can do. Maintaining clean air filters also prevents dust and allergens from circulating within your home. Replacing your filters will help you protect the air your family breathes. Learn how to choose the right air filter here
