How to extend the life of your air conditioning unit

• Clean the air conditioner on a regular basis. • Refer to your owner’s manual for

instructions on cleaning your particular unit.

• Help your air conditioner to stay cool. • Plant shrubs or small trees between the sun and the

AC unit. By keeping the direct sun off of the air conditioner, you’ll cut down on the amount of work it has to do.

Make sure the areas around the vents are clear so that nothing blocks your airflow—on both outlets and return air grilles.

Check Airflow

A programmable thermostat can be set to bring your home back to a comfortable temperature by the time you need it, and it takes the burden of switching it up and down off of you.

Use a Programmable Thermostat

Use Fans

On moderately warm days, sometimes a fan is all you need to keep you comfortable in the afternoon until things cool down.

Keep your air filter clean. Check the filter monthly and clean or replace it as necessary.

Go for professional tune up of the air conditioner. Maintained equipment last longer, it can save you over 20% on your utility usage versus non maintained equipment.

Check your ducts. Leaky ducts can make your air conditioner work harder than it has to
