Maintenance Tips
-
Replace or Clean Air Filters
Inspect monthly; replace every 1–3 months to maintain airflow and efficiency.
-
Clean Condenser and Evaporator Coils
Dirt buildup reduces cooling efficiency; schedule annual professional cleaning.
-
Inspect Furnace Burner and Heat Exchanger
Annual inspection ensures safe operation and maintains 96% AFUE efficiency.
-
Check Condensate Drain and Pan
Clear blockages to prevent water damage and maintain AC performance.
-
Maintain System Clearance
Keep 2–3 ft around indoor and outdoor units free from debris for proper airflow.
-
Verify Thermostat and System Operation
Ensure heating and cooling cycles function correctly and thermostat is properly calibrated.
-
Schedule Annual Professional Service
Technician should check gas lines, electrical connections, refrigerant levels, and blower operation to extend system lifespan.
