- Very important! Clean or change your air filters every 90 days to make sure they aren’t clogged. This is one of the easiest ways to prevent a major breakdown of your unit…and it ensures all of the dirt, dust, and grime that’s stuck in them won’t circulate throughout your house and contaminate your air.
- Inspect your outdoor unit. Maintaining two feet of clear space is ideal when it comes to protecting your outdoor A/C unit. Check to make sure debris like leaves, branches, and grass clippings don’t build up around the grills.
- Perform a visual inspection of your equipment to see if anything is leaking or broken. Unless you’re trained in HVAC maintenance, however, don’t attempt to fix the issues yourself—call your Appel service technician if anything seems amiss!
