The Summer Heat takes a major toll on how your air conditioner works in this extreme heat we are now facing. Below are some key things to remember to help your air conditioner work efficiently:

1. Keep your filter absolutely clean during this elevated outdoor temperature.

2. Make sure the outdoor unit is perfectly clean of dirt, grass, and lint.

3: Keep curtains and shades drawn to keep out direct sunlight especially from midday to sundown.

4. If the outdoor unit coil is exposed to direct sunlight, try to shade it with lattice fencing several feet from the unit for clearance and cleaning. Many units have louvered surroundings to prevent direct sunlight, many do not.

5. The cooling coils, condenser coils and condensate drain lines should be cleaned long before June through September. Fall and early spring are the best times to have these units cleaned while the attics are cool and there is less stress on the Mechanic and Customer.

6. Treat your service men well during this time of extreme heat. They are overworked and exhausted with no relief in sight until late October. Be Kind to Your Service Technician Please!
