Summers in Boerne, TX are too hot and humid to go without air conditioning, and a breakdown in your system means more than just an uncomfortable afternoon. It can present an active health risk. We’re on call to handle any air conditioning repair issues you may have, but we’d rather help you stop those breakdowns before they start and ensure that you air conditioner is running the way it should all summer long. Doing so involves a two-pronged approach.
Maintenance Sessions
A maintenance session from a trained technician is designed to help your system run more smoothly by correcting little issues like loose bolts and clogged air filters. But it also give the technician an ideal opportunity to check for little problems that might turn into big ones, and to schedule a repair session to deal with it on your timetable, instead of scrambling to respond during a sudden breakdown. Ideal, you should schedule an air conditioning maintenance session twice a year, at the beginning and end of cooling season. You should plan for one at least once a year, however, in order to keep things running the way they should. If you haven’t had your system serviced in 2016 yet, now might be the optimum time to do so.
Cost Cutting Measures
In addition to formal maintenance sessions, you can help reduce stress and strain with the same methods you use to lower your monthly bills. They can include (but are not limited to):
- Setting your thermostat to 78 instead of 75 and turning your system off at night when temperatures are cooler.
- Running your ceiling fan or another fan to circulate the air.
- Using weather stripping to seal cracks around doors and windows.
- Programming your thermostat to turn on 20 minutes before you arrive home instead of letting it run all day.
