Summer’s coming, and with energy prices higher than normal, you’ll want to make sure your air conditioner is running as efficient as possible. So, before it starts heating up in Harrisburg, remember the following tips:
- Ensure the unit starts, operates and shuts down as it should normally.
- When you’re not home, turn the air conditioner down. Consider installing a timer that turns off the unit when you leave and turns it back on before you get home.
- Make sure all the moving parts are well oiled. Any unlubricated parts can cause friction, increasing energy usage.
- Monthly changing the air filters makes the unit less efficient, thus reducing its lifespan.
- Cleaning the condenser and evaporator coils can cause the system to run less and more efficient. A dirty coil causes the unit to operate longer, thereby increasing your electrical bill.
