Air Conditioning Tips
Spring is here and summer is right around the corner, so we at the Engineering Department thought we will give some helpful hints to those of you who have air conditioning in your homes:
· Replace the filter - the size of the filter is written on the side and has an arrow indicating correct airflow.
· Ensure the outside unit (condensing unit) doesn"t have anything on or around it that would block airflow.
· During the season, keep the thermostat at a constant temperature (set point.) This will cause the unit to run less and save energy.
· If you have a programmable thermostat, check the program to ensure the program is set for your needs. Refer to the instruction booklet for programming steps. There is also a brief set of instructions on the inside cover of the thermostat.
· If you see something wrong, hear unusual sounds or the unit is not running, call for a technician. Be sure that the company is licensed.
