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.

Twintech replaced our aging furnace and air conditioner recently. I highly recommend this company. Their quote was competitive, they were on time and respectful of our home and extremely professional. From the salesman to the installers and the owner who followed up afterward to ensure we were satisfied, we are very pleased with the service. We are looking forward to working with this company for all of our HVAC needs for the years to come. Excellent workmanship and service!

We wanted to get our AC replaced as it was 22-years old and added to this our furnace was costing more and more to repair. So, we decided to get both the furnace and AC replaced.
After going through a few quotes and product reviews we decided to go with Twintech. The three-men crew arrived early in the morning, wasted no time and got to work right away. By 2:00 pm, they were all done. Ive found their work to be top notch and they were completely professional. I had all my questions answered to my satisfaction both during the progress of their work and at end.
I have pleasure in recommending Twintech to anyone who is looking to get their furnace or Ac replaced

Our air conditioner died On a Saturday and within hours Dave came out to take a look and discuss replacement/repair options.
The new air conditioner was installed on the Wednesday. The new unit was installed quickly. The installers were friendly and cleaned up afterwards.
We noticed a slight leak around the furnace that night and they came out the next day and fixed the issue. It has been working great and is quieter than our previous unit.
Very satisfied and would highly recommend TwinTech.

I contacted TwinTech to replace my 20-year old A/C. Dave, their service rep, promptly replied and was at my home within 2 hours. He was friendly and knowledgeable and didn't try to upgrade or oversell their A/C units but suggested the best fit for my small 1000 feet bungalow. Although this was during a heatwave and very busy, they were able to fit me in 2 days later. The TwinTech crew installed a 1.5 ton Ducane A/C unit that is now running smoothly while maintaining a constant cooling temperature. The crew were very courteous, professional and efficient and I will definitely recommend TwinTech to family and friends. I much appreciated your great service.

TwinTech was a pleasure to deal with from the estimate through installation. We replaced a 28 year old a/c unit with one recommended by TwinTech's sales representative Dave who took the time to go over the product with us and answer any questions. The warranty is for 10 years parts and labour and they will complete the registration for you. Installation was by Greg (owner) and Mitch and Spencer who were quick and efficient and left everything clean and tidy.

Very professional, from the sales consultation and inspection to the final installation. Met every expectations we had for the job. A local business with great client support. We highly recommend. Twintech is a blue chip! Thanks!
