Here are the most important heating and cooling issues to address before the cold weather sets in.
Clean and Replace Filters
Your home’s heating and cooling system filters keep dust, dirt, and other contaminants and allergens out of your home. Regularly cleaning and replacing filters will maintain the performance and efficiency of your heating and cooling system and improve your home’s indoor air quality. check all of your filters and replace any that are old, damaged, or dirty.
Clean and Repair Ductwork, Air Vents, and Registers
Keeping your duct work, air vents, and registers clean will improve the efficiency of your heating system. Make sure all of your supply and return air vents are open and unobstructed. Dust and clean your vents and ducts and make sure there are no leaks or holes in your ductwork. Duct sealing services will prevent duct leaks and improve the performance and efficiency of your home’s heating and cooling system. Make sure that furniture, electronics, boxes, or other objects are not in front of or over any vents.
Adjust Your Thermostat Settings
