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.

My whole experience in replacing my old furnace and A/C was great! Phil did a great job diagnosing my problems and gave great advice on going forward, Mike did a great job explaining my options and helping me chose the equipment that meets my needs and Martin and Steve spent a long day installing the new equipment, they did an amazing job! Thank you Able air conditioning and heating for the great job!

Andre cleaned my heat pump after buying a house last year. I was unaware of the age and maintenance of the unit and he gave all recommended maintenance needed. Thanks!

I had a new furnace installed today, and the two technicians, Shahin and Jaime, were wonderful. They were kind, professional, and worked efficiently from start to finish. They also made sure to keep the workspace clean and left everything spotless when they were done. Great customer service and quality work

Within a week of discovering that my A/C was leaking fluid, Able Air had replaced coils and installed my new unit. Mike came to discuss repairs versus replacement. The reason that so many people have given Able Air a 5 star rating was underscored for me when Mike said, "in good conscience I can't charge for servicing a unit that will be replaced." Crediting a service call on my old A/C might be minor compared to replacement costs, but sometimes small things go a long way to instill confidence in the varsity of a company and its owner. So also can those a company employs and Able Air has chosen it's staff well. The service tech, André, and the installation team of Martin and Steve were knowledgable, efficient, timely and personable. The office staff kept me well appraised of appointment times and payment options were seamless. The cost of the new unit was comparable if not better than the competition. I would, with confidence, recommend Able Air for your next furnace, A/C or servicing requirements.

Oct 1/26 Great yearly service of my Furnace and AC unit by Phil the tech. Very professional and respectful of my property. Feb 11/26 5*...Andre (with the beautiful eyes) came today to give me a peace of mind about the furnace room and it's temperature. He checked both the furnace from the inside and the combustion system from the outside to ensure that they were all in working order. Oct 28/25 5* AC/Furnace/Gas FP checkup by Josh. Excellent service provided. Josh was very thorough and professional in checking all 3 of my products. Oct/21 5* After getting 3 other quotes, I met Cyrus the owner. He was very professional and down to earth to answer questions honestly. He stood behind his word and his workmanship. He came to our home twice to ensure that we were 💯% confident in our decision for both AC and furnace installation. He arranged for the duct cleaning at a lower cost to ensure everything was clean before new equipment install. The crew (Waheed,Frank, Winston) came on time and were very professional and polite. They ensured that no dirt was dragged in from the outside by protecting our carpets. They protected our safety and wore masks and kept their distance during their install. I highly recommend this local company.

Sean (Shaun?) and Jim installed a new furnace and air conditioner for us today. We couldn't be more satisfied. The price was far better and more trustworthy than its competitor. The installation was very efficient and Sean and Jim left the basement cleaner than they found it! Sean also explained the differences between the new furnace and the old. I would definitey use Able again.
