-Begin your air conditioning maintenance by inspecting the outside condenser unit

-Straighten bent aluminum fins with a fin comb

-Remove any debris near the unit

-Clean the drain pan of any leaves or other contaminants

-Provide shade to the unit to help it run cooler in the heat of the summer

-Have a professional air conditioning service check the motor oil level and refrigerant level for the unit

Indoor air conditioning maintenance that can be performed by the homeowner is simple. Clean or change the filter every month. The unit will not have to strain to draw in air. Pour a cup of bleach into the drain. This kills any mold or algae that would clog the drain hose. An air conditioning service can install an access port in the drain if one is not present.

Open any closed vents in the room. Clean the vent louvers and inspect them again the next day. If the louvers are covered in dust or contaminants, have an air conditioning service clean the ducts. You and your family will have cleaner and healthier indoor air. You will also have less dust inside the house.
