It's that time of year!! AC season :). Before you turn your air conditioner on for the first time check out your outdoor compressor.
(1) Remove your AC cover
(2) Clear away any grass or weed growth at least 2' away
(3) Blow out the unit with an air compressor
Look for anything that might inhibit the air flow efficiency of your AC which will in tern increase your hydro bill!

As an HVAC Contractor, I suggest focusing on your AC compressor during spring maintenance. It's important to clean the unit, check for leaks, and ensure the refrigerant is at the correct level. Regular upkeep helps prevent issues and keeps your AC efficient, guaranteeing a cool home all summer. Proper maintenance also extends the compressor’s life and improves its functionality.
