Summer Maintenance

HVAC Maintenance

HVAC Contractor

Summer has arrived, leaving winter behind. If you've already switched on your HVAC, it's time to ensure it's prepared for the season. Neglecting your HVAC system after months of inactivity can lead to damage. Here’s why HVAC maintenance is crucial.

A well-maintained system can withstand months of inactivity. Hiring an HVAC contractor in Knoxville, TN, is vital to get your unit summer-ready.

Professional A/C maintenance and inspection are the best ways to stay cool during summer, but there are additional steps you can take:

Summer HVAC Maintenance Tips


Change the Filter

   Start by cleaning the reusable filter of your HVAC system, if applicable. For systems with replaceable filters, replace them promptly to prevent clogs from pollen and dust, ensuring effective air circulation.


Clean the Outside Unit

   The external unit facilitates heat transfer, absorbing indoor heat and releasing it outside through evaporation or condensation. Keeping this unit clean ensures efficient operation.


Clean the Condensate Drainage

   Condensate forms on the coils and drains away. If the drain becomes clogged, it can lead to mold growth. Regular cleaning of the condensation drain is essential.


Verify the Refrigerant Level

   Check the refrigerant levels by feeling the copper coils after the unit has been running for a while. Cold coils that condense suggest adequate refrigerant levels. If the coils do not feel cold, consider calling a professional.


Level the Condenser Unit

   Ensure the condenser unit is level using a spirit level rather than estimating by eye. Adjust with gravel or similar materials to achieve a level position.


Inspect Ductwork for Leaks

   Examine your ductwork for any signs of leaks or damage, as this can lead to energy waste and reduced cooling efficiency. Seal any leaks with mastic sealant or duct tape.


Program Your Thermostat

   Optimize energy use by programming your thermostat. Set higher temperatures when away or sleeping, and lower them when you are home and active.


These steps will help your HVAC system operate efficiently throughout the summer, ensuring your home remains cool and comfortable.
