Keeping Your Home Comfortable As Fall Arrives

October 11, 2016

Bust out the pumpkin spice, fall is officially in the air in Libertyville. Your air conditioner has made it through another year, but we all know how unpredictable fall weather can be. Mother nature doesn’t always follow the calendar; she goes her own way. How do you stay cozy and keep on top of air conditioner service as we move into fall?

Clean Your Outdoor Unit

The temps aren’t the only things that are falling, leaves and debris usually pile up around your outdoor unit this fall. If you haven’t gotten around to raking the entire yard, make a point to sweep up around your outdoor air conditioner unit. Debris can negatively inhibit the air flow into your system, causing it to affect performance.

Install a Smart Thermostat

Fall is a transitional season. One day you could be wearing a tank top, the next day you’ll need a sweater. Smart thermostats are connected to Wi-Fi and actually keep up with the weather in Libertyville which makes seasonal transitions better. They also learn your schedule and behaviors to boost your energy efficiency and comfort.
