Getting Your Air Conditioner Ready for Winter

Getting Your Air Conditioner Ready for Winter

Are cold days on the horizon?

With cooling season coming to an end, prepare your air conditioner for the cold weather.

Thanksgiving is this Thursday, which means winter is just around the corner. The temperatures are dropping, and, for many areas of the country, the need for cooling is dwindling. For those of us who switch over to heat during the winter, make sure you take the steps to ensure that your cooling equipment is protected.

If you’re done with your air conditioner for the season, here are some things you should add to your to-do list.

Schedule a condenser cleaning with your air conditioning contractor. Your contractor is going to be able to do the best job getting all the debris and dirt off of your air conditioning condenser (the box that sits outside). Of course, you can always spray down your unit by yourself, but if you want a thorough cleansing, call a professional. If you do decide to spray down your air conditioner, make sure it is not too chilly. You don’t want anything freezing.

These are just a few things you can do to get your home ready for winter. Want more advice? Check out our previous post on getting your home ready for winter.

What do you do every year to make sure your air conditioner stays safe during winter?
