What Homeowners Can Do to Get Ready for AC Repairs
If you are a homeowner that is stuck in these dog days of summer with an AC that isn’t working properly, you are more than likely looking for any way to get reprieve from the heat. The best thing to do is to call on professionals to come diagnose and solve your AC problems. Once you are on the books, you will need to do a few things to get ready for repair day.
– Clean Around AC Units: There are two units that make up your cooling system, one on the inside of your home and another on the outside. You will need to make space around both of these units for the technicians to have the space to get the repairs done. If you have things stored around them, make sure you have moved it out of the way before they get there.
– Check Thermostat: One of the first things any homeowner should do when their AC isn’t working is to check the thermostat to ensure it is turned to cool. Sometimes, the thermostat got bumped and the air accidentally got turned off. This is an easy thing to check and should be done before you call the pros. If there are any error messages, let us know and we will take a look at it when we come out.
– Make a List of AC Issues: If there are things you have noticed about your unit, make note of them to share with us. This might include odd sounds, smells and cycle histories. When we have a list of these details, it can help us diagnose the problem much faster so that we can get your unit up and running quicker.
– Secure Pets: If have pets in your home that could be a problem during the AC repair appointment, make plans for them that day. This could include asking a friend to take them for the day, putting them in their kennel or outside, and even just keeping them in a different part of the house while the technician is in your home.
