Summer is upon us! Air conditioners are being fired up in homes and offices all around Long Island. Will they work? Better yet will they work efficiently? Here are a few tips to give your air conditioner system a quick tune up:
- Most important thing you can do for central air conditioning systems is change the filter every month… if you have window units, you should clean the filter every month
- On central air conditioning systems, clean the condensation drain line yearly. That small drain line is a magnet for sludge and algae! To clean it, simply pour an 8 ounce cup of 50/50 bleach and water down the drain line access hole, let it sit for about 20 minutes, then flush it out with water.
Congratulations on your new website. It looks great, and your air-conditioning tip is so timely. Central air conditioning is an extremely expensive item in your home. Keeping it running at peak performance ensures it will work well for a long time. My husband knew about the filters but not about how to clean the condensation drain line. Thanks for helping us maintain our system.
Thanks for the reminder I always forget to clean that AC filter. I will do that now ASAP.
You make me blush with embarrassment when you point out I should be replacing the filters every month. It is always good to get sound advice. I cannot even imagine how much energy and electric I wasted by not simply replacing the filters. Thanks for a quick and easy solution to keeping cool in this weather.
As I was looking through your website, two things reached out and grabbed me.
1. “We show up for appointments. 2. We leave your house clean.
How many times I remember waiting for hours for a service person to show up only to have wasted my time.
I recently had some work done at my upstate home, and after a five hours drive to get there, I was greeted with cement blocks, piles of unused cement and other debris on my front lawn. You can imagine how happy that made me.
I always recommend a business that keeps their appointments and leaves my home the way they found it…neat and clean. Good work, Paul.
