How to Get the Most Mileage Out of Your HVAC System

You can keep your living space comfortable all year round with an efficient HVAC system. Taking a proactive approach toward your equipment will improve its performance and lifespan. A local AC and heater installation expert gives tips to prolong the life of your unit. 

Replace Air Filters Regularly

Dirty air filters are a common cause of HVAC malfunctions. They restrict airflow and make your equipment work harder than it should, straining its components. The more effort your unit makes to heat or cool your spaces, the more energy it consumes. You can easily avoid costly repairs and utility costs with regular filter replacement. 

Get Routine Maintenance

Routine inspections and maintenance can help with your HVAC system’s longevity, efficiency and safety. It will let your technician catch and address problems that can harm the unit’s performance. Be sure not to put off repairs because it will only worsen existing issues and reduce the equipment’s lifespan. 

Improve Your Attic Insulation

You will find it harder to keep your living space comfortable without proper attic insulation. Lack of insulation and leaks in your attic will cause your HVAC system to run longer and work harder. It will increase the likelihood of sudden breakdowns and early system failure. Whether you need better attic insulation or a heater repair, EZ Air Conditioning and Heating is here to help. 

Invest in a Smart Thermostat

A smart thermostat will help reduce your heating and cooling costs. It allows you to schedule your HVAC system to run less when you’re not at home. You can even control it no matter where you are through your phone, tablet and other digital devices. Moreover, the reduced load on your equipment can reduce the likelihood of malfunctions.
