Keep Your Air Conditioning Running Long-Term​

Installing central air conditioning is a major investment, but it plays a huge role in keeping your home cool and comfortable throughout the summer. Like any important system in your home, your A/C needs regular care to perform at its best. That’s where Pro Source Heating & Air comes in.

Schedule Routine A/C Maintenance

Staying on top of regular maintenance is one of the most effective ways to extend the life of your air conditioning system. Annual A/C service typically includes a detailed inspection and professional coil cleaning performed by a trained technician.

Routine servicing is affordable and can help you avoid costly repairs down the road that often result from neglected maintenance. It also helps ensure your system continues to operate efficiently, keeping energy use under control.

Seal Your Home to Improve Energy Efficiency

Even the most efficient air conditioner can’t do its job properly if cool air is escaping through gaps and cracks. Sealing doors and windows and adding insulation—especially in areas like the attic—can significantly reduce energy loss. Closing off unused rooms, covering unused doors or windows, and shutting vents where cooling isn’t needed can also help lower your energy bills.

Keep Indoor Humidity at the Right Level

Humidity often gets a bad reputation during the summer, but the right amount actually makes your home more comfortable. An indoor humidity level between 30% and 45% is ideal. While a hygrometer can help you monitor humidity, installing a humidity control system ensures consistent comfort throughout your home.

Raise Your Thermostat Slightly

After following the energy-saving tips above, one of the simplest ways to reduce energy costs is to increase your thermostat setting by a few degrees. If done gradually and comfortably, this small adjustment can ease the workload on your A/C system and lower utility bills. With proper sealing and humidity control, you may not even notice the change.
