Summer AC Maintenance Tips

Summer AC Maintenance Tips

Summer is approaching, so it’s time to start thinking about your air conditioning system.

Here Are Several Tips To Help You Keep Your AC Running Smoothly All Summer.

Clean Your AC Unit's Coils And Compressor

The coils and compressor of your AC system collect dirt, dust, pet hair, and other debris over time. This buildup can cause inefficiency and make it harder for your system to cool your home correctly. You can help prevent this issue by regularly cleaning your AC coils and compressor. We recommend having a professional HVAC technician clean the components of your air conditioning system at least once a year.

Keep Your AC Unit In The Shade

Try to keep your air conditioning unit in the shade. When your unit is exposed to direct sunlight to cool your house, it must work harder, which can reduce its efficiency and lifespan. Keeping your unit in the shade can help it operate more efficiently and extend its lifespan. If your current system is not in the shade and malfunctioning and is beyond repair, reach out to us. If you search online for air conditioner installation near me, you’ll find Air Rite. When you choose us, you get the best service.

Clear Your Vents And Registers

Ensure your vents and registers are clear of any obstructions, such as furniture or rugs. Obstructed vents can prevent cool air from flowing freely throughout your home, making your system work harder than needed. Ensure your vents and registers are clear and unobstructed to ensure proper airflow.

Consider Upgrading Your System

If your AC system is over 10 years old, consider purchasing a newer, more energy-efficient model. Modernized systems are created to be more effective, which can save money on your energy bills. They also have features like programmable thermostats, which can assist you in managing your energy usage more effectively. Call us today for an AC replacement in Paso Robles.

Check Your Ductwork

Your ductwork plays a vital role in delivering cool air throughout your home. Over time, ductwork can become damaged or disconnected, which can cause cool air to escape and reduce system efficiency. If you suspect your ductwork may be damaged, contact our HVAC technician to inspect and repair your ductwork. Ensuring your ductwork is in good condition can maximize your system’s efficiency and keep your home cool and comfortable all summer.

If you’re looking for professional AC maintenance services, look no further than Air Rite. Our technicians can help keep your air conditioning system running smoothly all summer. Contact us for more information or to schedule an appointment.

They can fix anything Great People !!!!!!!!!!! 🙂 I’ve been working with this company since 1996!!!!!!!

– Susie J.

As the caretaker for a senior gentleman in Atascadero, I was concerned for his health and safety during a recent cold snap. I called Air Rite, explained the situation and they made getting my patient’s needs taken care of a priority. The service technician was knowledgeable and professional, going above and beyond and taking the time to listen to my patient’s own diagnosis. The heating repair was completed within an hour and the price was right. I will recommend Air Rite Heating and Cooling to both my patients and my friends.

“Let me tell you why this company should have “10” stars. First, you need to know we had attempted to get our forced air heating fixed by another company from Templeton (posted a review on their site). After waiting several days for the other company to return after their initial visit (said they needed to order a part). After many cold days without even a call back we called “Air Rite” in Atascadero. We spoke with Rick (the owner of the company) and explained our dilemma and frustration with our attempt to get it fixed. He understood and said a ...

“Great service at a great price. When my parents needed an entirely new heater system Air Rite took care of it. When our heater recently went out Air Rite took care of it. Arnie came out diagnosed the problem and had us back up and running in no time. Great doing business with a small family-owned business. Highly recommend!”

“They are the best! I have you used them for everything. Honest and Fair.”

– Dennis E.

“Air Rite certainly did right by me! Our 20 year old HVAC system, which had been nursed along for the last few years, finally gave up the ghost. Arne came out and assessed the situation and recommended a reasonably priced replacement system. This morning he sent his team of Cameron, Daniel, David, and Keith, and they went to work. Before 3:00 p.m. on this wickedly hot day in the North County (105°+), they got our new furnace and air conditioning units installed, up, and running. Thank you, Air Rite!”

– Carrie W.

“We needed to have our AC unit serviced and called Air Rite. The woman who works in the office was attentive and kind. They were really busy because it has been so hot but she let us know the soonest they could send someone out. When the technician arrived he was kind and courteous. He went above and beyond to clean out the leaves that were in our unit and made it ready for summer. Thanks, Air Rite!”
