Caring For The HVAC In Your Office

8/4/2020 (Permalink)

It’s a good idea to have an inspection of your office HVAC done every fall and again in spring, after the heavier-use months during winter and summer. A professional will inspect and clean all of your unit’s wiring and mechanisms, and you can enjoy peace of mind knowing that someone with the proper training and experience has taken good care of your office HVAC system.

As a business owner, there are several simple maintenance chores that you can do yourself to prolong your system’s life and increase its efficiency between professional inspections and maintenance, too:

• Get a high-efficiency, pleated air filter for your system
• Keep your heating units and AC free of pollen, leaves, and grass
• Keep two feet of space clear around your outdoor AC and heating units
• Inspect refrigerant lines every month
• Replace the air filters every 90 days
• Turn off the water running to the furnace humidifier in the summer months
• In the fall, replace the humidifier filter and turn the water back on

Here are some annual to-do’s:

• Replace the carbon monoxide detector battery
• Make sure your outdoor AC unit is on firm and level ground
• Clean AC condensation with a bleach and water mixture

Caring for your HVAC properly throughout the year will keep your work environment air quality and atmosphere pleasant, which is just good for business. It will also save you money by improving and maintaining your energy efficiency throughout your building.
