Northern VA Air Conditioning And Heating Systems Require Properly Maintained Indoor & Outdoor Coils
Northern Virginia residents need to think about getting their a/c and heating systems in shape prior to the severe conditions that occur during both peak a/c and heating seasons. Not only will this help keep you more comfortable, it will help keep your utility bills lower.
Here are several tips regarding your a/c coils and your residential HVAC system.
Get checked
All northern VA residents should have their a/c and heating systems checked twice a year for safety and efficiency by their local a/c and heating company. Both your indoor and outdoor coils will be inspected during these seasonal check ups.
Cleaning the coils
Once your technician has inspected both indoor and outdoor coils, he or she will recommend cleaning if needed. The technician will recommend cleaning by any of several methods: brushing, vacuuming, pressure wash, steam, soap & water, or a non-acidic cleaner as per the manufacturer of your equipment. The fins on your outdoor coil may require straightening; your technician will be able to do this as well.
Avoiding the problem
Proactive maintenance of your HVAC system will help you head off these potential problems by discovering and correcting them prior to the hottest or coldest days of each season.
What you can do
In addition to having your a/c and heating system checked twice a year by a local HVAC company, you should; make sure grass clippings are blown away from the outdoor unit, never cover the unit with a roof or put a fence too close to the unit (these will restrict air flow), keep the unit clear of leaves and other yard debris, and make sure bushes are trimmed away from the unit to ensure plenty of air flow.
