Keeping Your Home Comfortable As Fall Arrives

October 11, 2016

Break out the pumpkin spice, fall is officially in the air in Houston. Your air conditioner has made it through another summer, but we all know how unpredictable fall weather can be. Mother nature doesn’t always keep up with the calendar; she goes her own way. How do you stay comfortable and keep up with air conditioner service as we go into fall?

Clean Your Outdoor Unit

The temperatures aren’t the only things that are falling, leaves and debris tend to build up around your outdoor unit this time of year. If you haven’t gotten around to raking the entire yard, make a point to sweep up around your outdoor air conditioner unit. Debris can negatively inhibit the air flow into your system, causing it to affect performance.

Install a Smart Thermostat

Fall is a transitional season. One day you could be wearing short sleeves, the next day you’ll need a sweater. Smart thermostats are connected to Wi-Fi and actually track the weather in Houston which makes seasonal transitions simpler. They also adapt to your schedule and behaviors to make the most of your energy efficiency and comfort.

Your air conditioner made it another summer in Houston, scheduling routine air conditioner service with Marcos AC & Heating will ensure it lasts next season. Fall is a great time to get maintenance set up. If there are any issues found, you won’t be left to shiver or sweat through the more unpredictable seasons.
