Want to get the most out of your air conditioner in Arizona? Here are some steps you can take to keep your AC running smoothly and effectively.
- Change the air filter regularly. Dirty air filters will keep air from flowing correctly and by keeping your filter clean; you can save between 5 and 15 percent on energy usage. Be sure to follow all manufacturer recommendations and turn the system off while changing the filter.
- Do not block your inside air condition vents with furniture. Vents need to be unobstructed so that the air can circulate freely.
- Keep the outdoor condensing unit clean. This large box in your yard should be kept clean from plants, grass, leaves or anything else which might block its airflow and reduce efficiency. You should also clean the unit off from time to time with a hose.
- Close vents in unused rooms and keep doors to those rooms closed.
- Keep the fan speed on high. Unless Arizona starts to get humid, a high fan speed is best to keep your house at the perfect temperature.
- Hire a professional certified Arizona air conditioner repair specialist. Problems with your system are best fixed by trained professionals who know exactly what needs to be done to maximize efficiency.
