When it comes to AC repair and installation, few companies do it better than Turner & Schoel. But even beyond hiring professionals, there are a few tips and tricks every homeowner should know to keep their air conditioning running efficiently.
Regular Maintenance is Crucial
The first rule of thumb for air conditioning units is to conduct regular maintenance. Just like having regular oil changes for your car, your air conditioner requires consistent care. Changing filters, keeping your outdoor unit clear of debris, and scheduling annual cleanings can go a long way in preventing major issues further down the line. If you need advice on how to maintain your AC unit, don’t hesitate to reach out to the professionals.
Understanding Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency is another key factor that can save you money in the long run. Units with high SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) ratings may be more expensive upfront, but they can save you significant money over time due to decreased energy usage. Turner & Schoel can help you find an energy-efficient unit that fits within your budget.
Timing Your AC Installation
When possible, try to plan your AC installation during the off-peak seasons of spring or fall, when demand may be lower. This can lead to shorter wait times for installation and potential savings. Our team at Turner & Schoel will work with you to schedule an installation plan that suits your needs.
Keeping the Air Clean
Lastly, remember that your AC unit is only as good as the air it’s cooling. Regularly cleaning and dusting your home, removing pet hair, and minimizing indoor smoke sources can improve the effectiveness and longevity of your AC system. Turner & Schoel is not just committed to installing and repairing your AC units, but also ensuring the air in your homes is as clean as possible for your comfort.
