Extending the operating life of your home’s air conditioner can save you money in utility bills, AC repair costs and it can prolong replacement, too. In addition to signing up for a preventative cooling system maintenance program, the best advice we can give to homeowners would be to do what you can to lower the overall workload of your air conditioner.

This includes keeping the thermostat set at a reasonable temperature (not too low), keeping your blinds closed during the day (especially if you aren’t at home) and removing any heat-creating objects (televisions, lamps, etc.) from the area around the thermostat.

Having a qualified air conditioning specialist perform preventative maintenance twice a year can catch posssible problems with your air conditioning system and prevent from having to replace your system.
