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 prepared for fall in McHenry, like get your long sleeved shirts out of storage and think through your Instagram-worthy pumpkin carving. There are a few things you may forget about while getting ready for fall – like your air conditioner. We’re about to say see you later to warm weather and we’re headed into cooler months. Along with your annual air conditioner service from Jett's Heating & Air Inc., we have a few tips that might help keep you cozy and get your air conditioner prepared for the change in season.

  1. Check and Swap Out Your Air Filter
    This is easy advice for every season in McHenry. Before you completely stop using your air conditioner, go swap out your filter from dirty to clean. A filthy filter means your air conditioner has to try harder to keep you comfortable which can negatively influence your comfort and lead to higher bills.
  2. Unblock Vents and Registers
    As you’ve relocated furniture or brought more into the house, make sure you haven’t blocked any of your vents. A blocked vent might drive up your utility bills.
  3. Schedule Annual Air Conditioner Service
    Fall is the best time in McHenry to get your air conditioner inspected by one of our professional technicians. We will do an in-depth inspection of your unit and ensure it will be in good working order for the approaching cooler months in McHenry. Routine air conditioner service can help you get the most out of your air conditioner’s performance, and may also affect the life of your system. Not to mention that a pretty high percentage of the emergency calls we get over these next few months are attributed to a lack of maintenance.

We want you to enjoy every bit of the season in comfort. If you have any questions for us about getting your home ready for fall or need to set up your annual air conditioner service give the experts at Jett's Heating & Air Inc. a call at 815-410-1128.
