5 Ways to Make Sure Your Air Conditioner is Ready for Fall

October 24, 2016

There are likely some things you do to get yourself ready for fall in Wisconsin Rapids, like hang up your long sleeved shirts and plot your Instagram-worthy pumpkin carving. There are a couple things you might forget about while doing your fall prep – like your air conditioner. We’re about to say sayonara to warm weather and we’re diving into cooler months. Along with your regular air conditioner service from Rapids Sheet Metal Works Inc, we have three tips that may help keep you comfy and get your air conditioner prepped for the change in season.

  1. Check and Change Your Air Filter
    This is simple advice for every season in Wisconsin Rapids. Before you completely stop using your air conditioner, go change out your filter from filthy to clean. A dusty filter means your air conditioner has to run harder to keep you comfortable which might negatively impact your comfort and mean higher bills.
  2. Unblock Vents and Registers
    As you’ve rearranged furniture or brought more into the house, be sure you haven’t blocked any of your vents. A blocked vent could raise your utility bills.
  3. Schedule Annual Air Conditioner Service
    Fall is the ideal time in Wisconsin Rapids to get your air conditioner looked at by one of our professional technicians. We will do a thorough inspection of your unit and make sure it will be in good working order for the coming cooler months in Wisconsin Rapids. Annual air conditioner service can help you get the most out of your air conditioner’s performance, and may also impact the life of your system. Not to mention that a large percentage of the emergency calls we get over these next few months are a result of a lack of maintenance.

We want you to enjoy every aspect of the season in comfort. If you have any questions for us about getting your home ready for fall or need to arrange your regular air conditioner service give the professionals at Rapids Sheet Metal Works Inc a call at 715-301-0256.
