3 Easy Ways to Boost Your AC’s Efficiency

Did you know that air conditioning accounts for more than half of the energy expenses in the average home? This is especially true during the warmest months when air conditioning is even more of a necessity. But fortunately for homeowners, there are easy ways to make your air conditioning system more efficient and lower your energy bills in the process. Here are four simple methods you can implement to boost your air conditioner’s efficiency.

1. Change the Air Filter

Your air conditioning system has an air filter within it that works to remove indoor air pollutants like dander, dirt and dust. Besides removing indoor air pollutants, the air filter allows your HVAC system to work as efficiently as possible. That’s why it’s important for you to change the air filter on a regular basis. When the filter isn’t swapped out, pollutants can build up and hinder the performance of your air conditioning system. To instantly improve your air conditioning system’s efficiency, change the filter once per month.

2. Regular Maintenance

Scheduling a routine maintenance appointment with an HVAC professional is one of the best ways you can increase the efficiency of your air conditioning system. During regular visits, your AC technician can look for minor problems that can impede the efficiency of your system.

3. Clean the Condenser Unit

The condenser unit is the outdoor component of your AC system. When cleaned and cleared of debris, the condenser unit can work to its fullest efficiency. The process of cleaning this unit is quite easy and can be done in under an hour if you’re comfortable cleaning the unit yourself. If not, an HVAC professional can clean the unit for you.
