7 Tips to Get Your HVAC Ready for Summer

June 23, 2023 by Integrity Home Solutions

 

Living in Tampa Bay, we know that HVAC is a necessity during the hot months of the spring and summer. With temperatures already reaching the high 80s, now is the time to make sure your AC system is in optimal condition before the heat of summer truly sets in.  

 

Learn seven tips to get your HVAC summer ready from our team at Integrity Home Solutions. Trust us, you’ll thank us later during the hottest days of the summer!  

 

Take note of these seven tips: 

 

#1. Check Your Air Filter 

#2. Have Your Ducts Cleaned 

#3. Check the Outdoor Unit 

#4. Check for Leaks  

#5. Check the Thermostat 

#6. Test Your HVAC System  

#7. Schedule Maintenance  

Summer is On Its Way  

 

With the heat of summer just around the corner, make sure to complete these tasks to ensure that your HVAC system runs efficiently during the hottest season of the year in Florida.  

 

#1. Check Your Air Filter 

 

We say this often because it is so important; changing your air filters at least every 30-60 days is key to keeping your HVAC system running efficiently year-round.  

 

Since air filters function to trap debris before it makes its way into your air conditioning system, it is crucial to change them often, especially if you have pets or allergies!  

 

Dirty air filters will overwork your HVAC system. If you don’t change your air filters you may have costly repairs on your hands down the road.  

 

#2. Have Your Ducts Cleaned 

 

To prepare your HVAC system for the hotter months ahead, it is always wise to get the air ducts in your home cleaned. This not only ensures that there is nothing that will negatively impact the airflow from your AC, but it also prevents mildew, fungi, and other allergens from traveling throughout your home.  

 

 

Need duct cleaning or HVAC maintenance before summer? Schedule service today with Integrity Home Solutions; 813-473-6007!    

#3. Check the Outdoor Unit 

 

Each season, it is important to check the outdoor condenser unit for any branches, leaves, or other natural debris that may have made its way into the outdoor unit’s fan or shroud.  

 

Clear any grass, tree branches, or bushes from around the unit so it can run efficiently.  

 

If you covered your HVAC during the cooler months, it’s time to take the condenser cover off so you can get your system ready for a hot summer. 

 

#4. Check for Leaks  

 

During the fall and winter, your HVAC may have had leaks or cracks form due to fluctuations in temperature. It can be easy for the metal components within your HVAC system to corrode and crack, causing holes where refrigerant could leak out.  

 

If there are no obvious signs of leaking, but you still notice a crack, call our team at Integrity Home Solutions to inspect your system. We will find any leaks or cracks and repair them before the heat of summertime sets in.  

 

#5. Check the Thermostat 

 

To check for any issues with cooling your home, check your thermostat. For example, if you turn on your AC and find that you are adjusting your thermostat more often than normal, you may need a new one, or the thermostat may need to be reprogrammed.  

 

Further, if you notice that your energy bills are rising, fixing your thermostat or installing a smart thermostat can help you save money on energy costs.  

 

#6. Test Your HVAC System  

 

Now it’s time to test out your HVAC system! While this is a simple step, testing it out before running it continuously during the summer will help ensure that it is running efficiently and can help you identify any issues that need to be fixed.  

 

#7. Schedule Maintenance  

 

One of the best things that you can do to make sure that your air conditioning system is in optimal condition for the summer months is to schedule HVAC maintenance in the spring.  

 

Having regular maintenance performed on your HVAC system will ensure that it runs smoothly, saving you money and stress in the long run.  

 

If you stay on top of proper maintenance, it is less likely that you will have to deal with expensive HVAC repairs or a replacement during our hot Florida summers.

Beat those hot Florida days and humid nights with an HVAC system that is running in tip-top shape! Our team at Integrity Home Solutions will do the dirty work for you and will make sure that your air conditioning system stays in great condition all summer long.
