Another way to extend the lifespan of your AC unit is to avoid placing indoor and outdoor units in direct sun or near other heat-producing appliances. Use heavy blinds and drapes indoors (especially on the sunny side of your house), and place the outdoor unit under a shady tree or awning for extra protection; however, you do need to install it at enough of a distance so twigs and leaves don’t get stuck in the fan. Make sure to keep the area around the unit free of loose dirt, weeds and grass clippings. Like any other large appliance in your home, your air conditioner functions more efficiently when it’s clean and well maintained. To improve performance, have the indoor coils professionally cleaned on a regular basis. Also, check for water pooling in the drain lines, and raise the unit higher if water is collecting near it.
It’s also important to note that the air filters in your HVAC system are probably the most important component in terms of performance and efficiency. During scheduled air conditioner maintenance, one of our technicians will inspect and change the filters, but you may need to do this more often depending on use. Usually, air filters should be changed every 1-2 months. They can get clogged with dust, pollen or pet dander, tough, so change them more often if you live in a dry, dusty area or your home has poor air quality. Also, don’t forget to remove air flow blockages around cooling vents and return inlets, and regularly inspect air ducts for leaks, gaps, loose seams, or obstructions.
