Summer is in full force in Allen, Texas, and AC units in the area are working hard. If you think it’s too late to give your HVAC system a summer checkup, think again. Now is a great time to conduct routine and preventive maintenance to ensure your system is running at peak efficiency. Here are four reasons to have your HVAC system serviced today.
Prevent Clogged Drain Lines
Drain lines remove the condensed moisture that’s been pulled from your home’s air, and it’s not uncommon for that water to mix with dust and debris and clog the lines. If there’s no overflow sensor in the drain pan, water could back up and overflow and damage your home.
Recharge Low Refrigerant
If your AC system is low on refrigerant, it can blow warm air or even stop working. Because the AC has already been running for several weeks, it’s easier for a technician to see if the refrigerant needs to be charged or if the system requires other repairs.
Clean Dirty Coils and Filters
Dirty coils and filters are less efficient than clean ones and can drive up energy costs and increase stress on the HVAC system. Changing filters regularly and keeping coils free of dirt and debris will keep your system working at peak performance and can even help extend its life.
Perform an Overall System Evaluation
Even if your system looks good from the outside, there may still be issues. A thorough summertime inspection will ensure there are no leaves, branches, or other foreign objects clogging the system and impeding the system’s ability to do its job.
