Getting Your Air Conditioner Ready for Spring
Posted On: March 16, 2022
Spring is just around the corner – are you ready for warmer weather? We sure missed it, how about you? You might have a list of activities lined up for spring, and we are excited just like you! Just one more thing… is your air conditioning system ready to keep your house internally cool and comfortable?
Here are 5 basic maintenance tips that will help your air conditioner perform optimally during the warmer months:
Check your unit’s air filter as needed.
Never forget to clean or change your HVAC unit’s air filter. Doing so will only pollute your indoor air and not only that, but dirty filters can also mess up your entire cooling system by blocking the airflow. Dirty filters can also damage the unit’s motor. If air filters become clogged, the entire unit can even break down. You don’t want that, do you?
Ensure that the outdoor unit is clean and unobstructed.
Most people forget about the outdoor unit of an air conditioner. Keep that unit clean and clear away any obstructions to help your cooling system perform better and live longer. If there are any shrubs and plants near the unit, it is best to have them cut off. Any debris within the area should also be removed and collected. Remember, blocked airflow in the outdoor unit is just as harmful to your AC as a dirty air filter.
Air ducts should also be cleaned.
The air vents that your cooling system uses to distribute cooled air all throughout your home should be inspected and cleaned periodically. Air ducts can be a great hiding place for unwelcome rodents, roaches, spiders, bacteria, viruses, mold, dust mites, pollen, and other allergens that can pollute your indoor air. Ductwork can also develop cracks, leaks, and holes over time through which cooled air can escape, driving up energy costs and reducing the AC’s efficiency. If you want cleaner and fresher indoor air, clear your air ducts.
Overhead fans should be reversed.
Ceiling fans help keep our homes cool in spring and summer. Check your fan and find a small switch near the top of the fixture. Use that to set the direction of the fan blades counterclockwise. If you want to save up to 40% on cooling costs, then you should do this. Overhead fans can make you feel eight degrees cooler.

It was a refreshing experience interacting with the Twintech team. From Bob, the sales consultant, who articulated in layman's terms all the options available and reasons for making any selection. This was done without the prevailing pressure tactics so commonplace today.
Before proceeding Mitch, the technician, at our request conducted a service check on our 30 yr old furnace. His report was positive indicating no urgency to replace it. Again no pressure tactics.
Three days after first meeting with Bob, the installation team of Greg and
Spencer completed the installation within the planned time frame.
A very professional, courteous and transparent team which delivered on their promise. I highly recommend Twintech.

I had a really great experience with these guys. The salesman Bob was clearly very knowledgeable about everything to do with heating and cooling a home, spent a lot of time with us going over the details of the job, never rushed us and came back after the install to make sure we were happy. The installation crew was excellent, they covered the floors all the way from outside down to the basement furnace room, kept the place clean, got the work done on time and were very friendly. Ive got 15 years in the contracting/ construction industry and these guys are one of the most professional companys Ive dealt with. Great company!

My old water heater quit on me. I called TwinTech. In less than 4 days, I had my new water heater installed and the old one taken away. The whole process was quick, easy, pleasant, and well done. This is the third time I've dealt with TwinTech and I've been satisfied each time.
