Air Conditioner Maintenance Tips

Clean/Replace Your Filters:

  • Open the Unit: Lift the front panel of the indoor unit.
  • Remove the Filter: Grip the tab on the end of the filter, push it up slightly, then pull it towards yourself. Pull down to extract the filter(s) behind the front panel.
  • Detach Air Freshening Filter (if applicable): Unclip the small air freshening filter from the larger filter.
  • Clean the Air Freshening Filter: Use a hand-held vacuum to remove dust and debris.
  • Wash the Main Filter: Clean the large air filter with warm, soapy water (mild dish soap works best).
  • Rinse and Dry: Rinse the back of the filter with fresh water, shake off excess water, and dry in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • Reassemble: Once dry, re-clip the air freshening filter to the larger filter.
  • Reinstall the Filter: Slide the filter back into the indoor unit.
  • Close the Panel: Secure the front panel of the indoor unit.

Remove Debris From Your AC:

  1. Check for Debris: Remove dirt, leaves, and branches that may reduce efficiency.
  2. Maintain Clearance: Keep plants at a distance to prevent airflow blockage.
  3. Clear Weeds: Remove any growth between the unit and your home.

Schedule Annual AC Maintenance:

  • Extend Unit Lifespan: Regular maintenance helps prevent major issues and costly repairs.
  • Best Time to Schedule: Spring is ideal before heavy summer use.
  • What Technicians Check: Duct seals, refrigerant levels, belt tightness, airflow, electric terminals, etc.
  • Professional Inspection: Experts can spot problems early to keep your AC running efficiently.

Run Ceiling Fans:

  • Improve Air Circulation: Helps distribute cool air more efficiently.
  • Reduce AC Strain: Allows you to set the thermostat higher without sacrificing comfort.
  • Adjust Fan Direction: In summer, set fans to rotate counterclockwise for a cooling effect.

Cover Your AC Unit for the Winter:

  • Check Manufacturer Guidelines: Ensure covering is safe for your AC model.
  • Protect from Harsh Weather: Covers help shield units from heavy snow and rain.
  • Prevent Damage: Adds extra protection, especially in extreme climates.

Had a great experience with Mike, when he came to do the quote at our house. The two technicians that came did a fantastic job. I wish I had called sooner to install the heat pump it’s night and day compared to our old A/C unit! Fantastic work thanks guys!

I've purchased a total of 3 mini-split systems from Able Air and the experiences were all excellent. Call out to Mike on the sales side, Martin (and his team mates) on the installation side, and Nadine coordinating everything. A very positive experience with a knowledgeable and professional team.

Able did a great job in providing a new furnace. Their price was good and installation went well. Mike’s technical expertise was excellent and this helped me make my decision on make and model. Hats off to John and Zack who installed the furnace. They came on time, cleaned up after themselves, and went the extra mile to make sure I was happy with the installation. I recommend Able!

Replaced my furnace and ac. The whole process was fast and easy. Mike came quickly and gave us a quote. Took the time to explain everything to us. Scheduled the work within a week. We felt confident with the large purchase. Work was done quickly and professionally. Ehsan and Scy were friendly installers and answered any questions we had. Highly recommend Able to anyone. Good service and good pricing.

We had our furnace tune up and inspection done by Phil recently. He was right on time, very knowledgeable and professional, and did a thorough job of not only servicing our furnace, but also educating us along the way. He didn't rush anything and made sure to answer all our questions and running all the tests. It was our first time with Able Air and they'll definitely be our first choice for all HVAC related issues from now on.
