Follow our tips on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/how-to-choose-the-best-air-conditioner\/\">best air conditioner<\/a> preparation to get your summer started off right:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Change the air filters<\/strong>. Regular cleaning or replacement of your filter, depending on type and usage, will do wonders for the longevity of your air conditioner. Prepare to check it monthly, but know it may not need anything done each time you check. Pro tip: If you can see light through the filter, it is fine! Bear in mind that not only does a clean filter help the efficiency and life of your unit, it also promotes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/tips-for-healthy-air-at-home\/\">healthy air at home<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Check for air leaks<\/strong>. Check around your window frames and doors for potential air leakages. While we tend to notice these a lot more in the winter, if they are not taken care of, it can result in a large amount of cool air loss over time. Who wants to pay to cool the outside?<\/li>\n<li><strong>Close the curtains<\/strong>. This is not necessarily a step to prepare your air conditioner for summer. Rather, it is a step to preserve it. Use your curtains and drapes to your advantage by blocking out the sun&rsquo;s rays during the day, especially if you are not even home to enjoy them. This will keep your air conditioner from needlessly running.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Clear away debris from around your outdoor unit<\/strong>. One of the most important steps in preparing your air conditioner for summer is making sure the outside AC unit is free of the sediment and debris that may have found its way around it over the winter. This includes old leaves, twigs, grass cuttings, and whatever else might have nestled up against the side of the unit the last six months.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>By following these easy tips, you are already ahead of the game when it comes to looking after your air conditioning unit.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Learn_More_About_Ways_to_Prepare_Your_Air_Conditioner\"><\/span>Learn More About Ways to Prepare Your Air Conditioner<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If you have any other questions about how to best prepare your air conditioner for summer, or need to schedule your annual <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/contact-galmiche.php\">heating &amp; air conditioning<\/a> system maintenance in preparation for summer, connect with Galmiche &amp; Sons online or by phone today!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a particularly cold winter, St. Louis residents everywhere are looking forward to one thing: those summer rays of sun!
