5 Ways to Make Sure Your Air Conditioner is Ready for Fall

October 24, 2016

There are likely some things you do to get yourself prepped for fall in Omaha, like hang up your long sleeved shirts and think through your Instagram-worthy pumpkin carving. There are a few things you may forget about while doing your fall prep – like your air conditioner. We’re about to say sayonara to warm weather and we’re headed into cooler months. Along with your regular air conditioner service from Interstate Heating & Air Conditioning, we have three tips that may help keep you cozy and get your air conditioner prepared for the change in season.

  1. Check and Replace Your Air Filter
    This is simple advice for every season in Omaha. Before you completely stop using your air conditioner, go switch out your filter from filthy to clean. A dirty filter means your air conditioner has to try harder to keep you comfortable which might negatively influence your comfort and result in higher bills.
  2. Unblock Vents and Registers
    As you’ve relocated furniture or brought more into the house, be sure you haven’t blocked any of your vents. A blocked vent could raise your utility bills.
  3. Schedule Annual Air Conditioner Service
    Fall is the ideal time in Omaha to get your air conditioner checked out by one of our highly-trained technicians. We will do an in-depth inspection of your unit and be sure it will be in good working order for the upcoming cooler months in Omaha. Routine air conditioner service can help you get the most out of your air conditioner’s performance, and could also affect the life of your system. Not to mention that a large percentage of the emergency calls we get over these next few months are due to lack of maintenance.

We want you to enjoy every aspect of the season in comfort. If you have any questions for us about getting your home ready for fall or need to schedule your regular air conditioner service give the pros at Interstate Heating & Air Conditioning a call at 402-509-5940.
