Schedule Maintenance
It is essential that homeowners follow manufacturer's routine maintenance directions, and have the entire system checked once a year by a qualified service technician.

Check Your Filters

• Permanent filters can be cleaned with mild detergent, per manufacturer's recommendations, every 30 to 60 days.
• Replaceable filters should be replaced every 30 to 60 days.

Check Your Windows and Doors

• Keep them closed when your system is running.
• Caulk and weatherstrip your windows and doors to close air gaps.
• Close drapes and shades over windows facing the sun.

Manage your Daily Activities

• During cooling season, don't wash/dry clothes during warmest times of the day, which is typically late morning and afternoon.
• When cooking, use your exhaust fan only as needed.
• Keep your thermostat at a desired setting.
