Maintaining Your Cooling System

  • Filter: Change Your furnace filter once a month during the cooling season.
  • Annual Tune-Up: Schedule an annual tune-up. It is important to have your air conditioning system inspected by a service technician. An annual tune-up can reduce your cooling costs by five percent
  • Ductwork: Have your ductwork professionally cleaned every three – four years
  • Leaks?: Check all hose connections for leaks, and make sure the condensate tube is draining freely
