HVAC Maintenance
1. Change air filters regularly: Replace filters every 1-3 months to ensure optimal air quality and system efficiency.
2. Schedule annual tune-ups: Professional inspections can prevent costly breakdowns and extend your system’s lifespan.
3. Keep outdoor units clear: Remove debris and trim vegetation around your AC unit to maintain proper airflow.
Plumbing Care
1. Address leaks promptly: Even small leaks can lead to significant water waste and damage if left unchecked.
2. Insulate pipes: Protect against freezing and energy loss by insulating exposed pipes.
3. Use drain strainers: Prevent clogs by installing strainers in sinks and showers to catch hair and debris.
Energy-Saving Tips
1. Install a programmable thermostat: Save energy by automatically adjusting temperature settings based on your schedule.
2. Seal air leaks: Check for drafts around windows and doors, and seal them to improve energy efficiency.
3. Consider upgrading to energy-efficient appliances: Modern HVAC systems and water heaters can significantly reduce your energy consumption.
