The Ultimate Guide to AC Maintenance Before Summer

Prepare Your AC for the Summer Heat

Don't wait until the scorching heat arrives to think about your air conditioner. Proper AC maintenance before summer ensures efficient cooling and lower electricity bills.

1. Clean or Replace Filters

Dirty filters restrict airflow and reduce efficiency. Clean or replace them every 1-2 months during peak usage.

2. Check Refrigerant Levels

Low refrigerant can damage your compressor. Have a professional check and top up if needed.

3. Clean the Outdoor Unit

Remove debris, leaves, and dirt from around the outdoor condenser unit. Trim vegetation at least 2 feet around it.

4. Inspect Ductwork

Leaky ducts can waste up to 30% of cooling energy. Seal any visible leaks with duct mastic.

5. Schedule Professional Service

Book JEMSC AC service for a thorough inspection and maintenance before summer hits.
