The last few months may have been filled with wind, cool temperatures, and a heavy downpour of rain. However, with April nearing an end, we are finally getting closer to drier days and warmer weather.

For many in Greater Vancouver, the spring and summer heat is a welcomed addition, but only momentarily. The summers across British Columbia have been getting hotter and hotter, and without an effective air conditioning unit, the summer heat can become unbearable.

Just because you have existing air conditioning does not mean you will be protected from the summer heat. Without proper maintenance, your unit may not perform as effectively as it should. Therefore, it is critical to get maintenance performed by a professional HVAC company before the heat arrives for the following reasons.

Ensure Cleaner Air Quality

Air conditioners have a filter that blocks bacteria and pollutants from entering the air supply and circulating throughout the home. However, air filters have a short lifespan, and without a yearly change, they are unable to effectively do their job.

The first step of any air conditioning maintenance is to check the filter and ensure it is cleaned and functioning as needed.

Maintain a Comfort Temperature

In an ideal world, you set the air conditioner to a specific temperature, and it takes care of the rest. However, over time, the AC condenser coils can become damaged or blocked, which directly impacts its ability to maintain a specific temperature.

Without replacing the damaged condenser coils or tubing, your air conditioner will struggle to maintain the desired temperature.
