A high quality filter in an accessible area will keep your system clean, protecting you from dust and other allergens building up in your air chase, where dust mites can breed and cause respiratory problems for the residents inside the house. A professional HVAC maintenance contractor can fit a filter grille that is properly sized for your unit.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"HVAC_Maintenance_Tip_2_%E2%80%93_Keeping_Insects_Out\"><\/span>HVAC Maintenance Tip #2 \u2013 Keeping Insects Out<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If you have an outdoor HVAC unit, not only is it exposed to the elements \u2013 it is also exposed to the creatures living outside as well. Bugs are known to crawl inside of units and cause all sorts of HVAC maintenance issues. Ant colonies can be especially troublesome if they are prevalent in your area. Ants are drawn to the high voltage electric plates on the contactor, which is responsible for turning the condenser on and off. When the ants crawl between these plates, a circuit cannot be created, and then issues start. The best HVAC maintenance strategy for this is prevention &#8211; buy ant repellent and scatter it around your HVAC unit&rsquo;s condenser pad. You should also check regularly for signs of insects in and around your AC system.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"HVAC_Maintenance_Tip_3_%E2%80%93_Inspect_the_Ventilator_Belts\"><\/span>HVAC Maintenance Tip #3 \u2013 Inspect the Ventilator Belts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/hvac-6.jpg\" alt=\"St. Louis HVAC Maintenance\" width=\"200\" height=\"267\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-22\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Under normal circumstances, a ventilator belt should last around a year \u2013 however, it is always good to occasionally check them to make sure everything is working properly. To perform this HVAC maintenance, simply turn off the power and reach in to inspect the state of the belt driven ventilator. When you start the motor up, if you notice a squealing coming from the belt, then it is definitely time for a replacement. Generally, on the outside of the belt you can find the size printed. From there, you can find most sizes at auto parts or hardware stores, though occasionally they will have to order your specific size.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Contact_Galmiche_Sons_for_HVAC_Maintenance_and_Inspection_in_St_Louis\"><\/span>Contact Galmiche &amp; Sons for HVAC Maintenance and Inspection in St. Louis<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>These HVAC maintenance tips should help prevent unnecessary and costly repairs, but the best way to be sure that everything is on the up and up is to call a professional contractor such as Galmiche &amp; Sons Heating &amp; Cooling.
