Three Tips from Comfort Zone to Keep Your Air Conditioner Working

The one thing you don’t need to deal with on a scorching summer’s night is a problematic air conditioner. Your air conditioner has to be functional for you to be able to have a relaxed summer. Comfort Zone, the heating and cooling experts of Harrisburg PA, have the following tips to ensure you don’t need air conditioner repair this coming season:

  1. Maintain your outdoor unit
    An unclean unit can become a nonworking unit. Avoid challenges by removing from your unit cottonwood and grass clippings. When dirty, the central air unit can overheat and shut off, which will reduce its life and prevent proper cooling.
  2. Install clean filters
    The filter that helps keep your warm in the winter is the same as the one that will keep you cool in the summer. A dirty filter can result in higher costs, and affect cooling capabilities, which will mean more discomfort in the summertime.
  3. Leave the air conditioner on at night
    Many clients ask if they should turn off their AC at night. The night air, despite being cooler, still contains humidity. If you turn off your cooling unit, all the humidity will sit there, and the air conditioner will have to work much harder to remove it. Save the appliance the effort by letting it run at night.

Enjoy the weather in comfort by contacting Comfort Zone for all your heating and cooling needs. Have a happy and safe summer!
