Spring is here. We know your to-do list is unfortunately long, but we have several things you can combine that will save you from potential problems and keep you comfortable over the summer. When the weather gets hot in Norco and St. Charles Parish, an AC repair is the last thing you want to worry about. Use this checklist to save yourself from sweating during the summer.
- Check Out Your Air Filter and Ducts
You’ve seen this here before. Changing your air filter is so important and commonly overlooked by homeowners. A dirty air filter makes your system work a lot harder to keep your house comfortable. Hard work means less efficiency and more money. Plus, it causes undesirable wear and tear on your system. People also overlook their ducts and registers. It’s a good idea to remove the covers from your registers and vacuum them. Then you should soak the covers in mild dish soap, scrub them if needed and put them back when they’re dry. - Clean Your Outdoor Unit
Keep debris like grass clippings, leaves and plants distant from your outside unit. Debris can obstruct your system and reduce its efficiency. - Make an Appointment for Your Annual AC Tune-Up
Here’s where Mayeuxs AC & Heating can help with that checklist. Having annual AC tune-ups extends your system’s life and maintains it so it is running at peak efficiency. It’s best to schedule your tune-up in early spring so any AC repairs can be done before summer brings the heat. When you consider the value of the life of your system, the cost of a tune-up is a nominal investment.

We’ll help you stay cool and comfortable all summer long. If you have any questions about your home comfort or you would like to schedule your annual AC tune-up, call us at (985) 764-2426.
