How to Keep Your Air Conditioner from Failing

June 24, 2019

One unpleasant surprise that can wreak havoc on a warm summer’s day in Mankato area is a failing air conditioner. Your house is typically the cool place you rest when you’ve had enough of the heat outdoors. But when it’s actually WARMER inside than it is outside, it can be a pretty sad situation. This condition calls for an air conditioning service, and you’ve got more exciting things to do with your vacation time than wait for your AC to get fixed. So, how can you prevent an air conditioner failure and take full advantage of your summer? The key to stopping a failure and the inevitable air conditioning service appointment is to be proactive! Instead of an emergency air conditioning service, why not plan ahead and book preventive maintenance?

A preventive AC maintenance tune-up performed by the pros at Northern Comfort Inc is your first and strongest line of defense against many problems that can end in AC failure—and the resulting miserable summer days. We’ll ensure that everything is working as it should and monitor for things that could be likely problems later on. We’ll take care of those impending problems before they grow into expensive problems that leave you in the scorching heat of summer.

Some other tips you can do to help keep your air conditioner running as it should are:

  • Repeatedly checking and changing your air filter to keep air flowing efficiently through your house.
  • Making sure your AC equipment isn’t blocked by any plant life or debris. Check to ensure that your air returns aren’t covered by furniture or drapery or anything else that could impact airflow. The harder your AC has to work, the less efficient it’ll be—and the more likely it’ll be to break down earlier than it should.
