On the flip side, the muggy weather can make you long for air-conditioning. So after the fun is over, you want to come back to a cool home, and for that, your AC should run optimally. Having your AC checked out by our professional before the summer heat hits ensures that any issue may be dealt with swiftly and your AC can be in top shape. This summer HVAC maintenance is crucial for ensuring your comfort all summer long.<\/p>\n<p>In this post, we explain the summer HVAC maintenance checks that our heating and air conditioning professionals perform and how these help prepare your system for summer.

Cleaning the condenser coils in spring will let your air conditioner run more efficiently. Start by trimming foliage near the unit as falling leaves and bits of branches can collect on top of the AC. Ensure there are no plants in the two feet of space surrounding the unit to allow for proper air flow.<\/p>\n<p>Next, remove any large debris from the coils with your hand, spray the coils down to loosen dirt and apply a foaming coil cleaner while the coils are still wet. If you are not sure how to access the condenser coils and clean them correctly, have our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/ask-an-hvac-technician\/\">HVAC technician<\/a> perform thorough summer HVAC summer maintenance and cleaning.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Upgrade_To_a_Smart_Thermostat\"><\/span>Upgrade To a Smart Thermostat<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t have one, consider <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/install-a-smart-thermostat\/\">installing a smart thermostat<\/a>. With a smart thermostat, you can set your HVAC system to automatically cool your home to the exact temperature you want. You can also program automatic adjustments based on when you are home or away, ensuring comfort and energy-efficiency. You can make changes and control your thermostat on your smart phone, tablet, or a voice-controlled personal assistant like Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ensure_That_Vents_are_Unblocked\"><\/span>Ensure That Vents are Unblocked<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Making sure that airflow is not obstructed in any way is another important part of any summer HVAC maintenance.
