Keep Your Air Conditioner Running Smoothly

Proper maintenance is key to ensuring your cooling system runs efficiently throughout the hot Maryland summers. Here are some tips from T. N. Bowes Heating & Air Conditioning, Inc.:

• Change air filters regularly (every 1-3 months) to improve airflow and indoor air quality.
• Clear away any debris or vegetation around the outdoor unit to prevent blockages.
• Schedule annual professional AC service to ensure optimal performance and catch any potential issues early.
• Consider upgrading to a programmable or smart thermostat to better control temperatures and save energy.

Signs You Need AC Repair

If you notice any of the following, it’s time to call for AC repair:

• Warm air blowing from vents
• Increased energy bills
• Strange noises or odors
• Water leaks around the unit

Don’t wait until your system breaks down completely. Addressing issues promptly can prevent further damage and costly repairs down the road.
