The chill of winter is slowly fading and warmer days are ahead. This means it’ll soon be time to crank up the air conditioner to keep cool and comfortable indoors. But before cranking up the AC unit, which has been sitting idly for many months, there are some things they need to do.

As the premier provider of quality AC repair in Vero Beach, FL, the Air Docs Heating & Cooling team goes beyond just fixing things; they go the extra mile to help them avoid potential AC breakdowns. Here are the essential things they need to do before turning on the AC after winter.

Clean And Inspect The Outdoor Unit

An accumulation of debris, such as leaves or dirt, might hinder its effectiveness

Get the exterior unit checked first by going outdoors and uncovering it. Take away all of the clutter from the condenser area. The condenser will vent the excess indoor heat into the outside air. An accumulation of debris, such as leaves or dirt, might hinder its effectiveness.

During the maintenance and AC services, a brief walk-through will be done to check out the whole thing. The integrity of the panels that hide the wiring will also be verified and the insulation around the refrigerant lines will be checked to see if they are whole and unbroken.

Inspect The Electrical Connections

Have a professional verify the integrity of all electrical connections and any circuit breakers. Checking the thermostat’s programmed setting is also a smart move.

Make sure there is no ice forming around the refrigerant line. Frozen evaporator coils may cause equipment failure or water damage that will need prompt AC repair services.

Check the Ducts, Vents, And Air Filter

Have the ducts, vents, and air filters inspected thoroughly to guarantee AC efficiency

Have the ducts, vents, and air filters inspected thoroughly to guarantee AC efficiency. Before switching on the air conditioner again after the winter, remove and replace the air filter. Routinely changing the air filters is a crucial part of AC maintenance.

Ducts, vents, and air filters play vital roles in the efficiency of the central air conditioning and heating system. Verify that nothing is blocking the home’s vents. If there is ducting that is showing, check to see that all of the joints are tightly secured.
