Harrisburg, United States - November 6, 2020 / G.F. Bowman, Inc. /

The Different Ways Fall Weather Affects the HVAC System

In places like Pennsylvania, it is crucial to have an efficient AC unit and heater. This means that regular HVAC maintenance is vital to the home's overall efficiency and safety all year round. 

The fall is the perfect time for maintenance because it is right before the cold hits and significantly reduces the risk of breakdown during the winter. It also prevents the unit from experiencing any issues due to the effects of changing weather. Continue reading to learn more. 

Leaves Crowd and Suffocate the System

It might seem harmless at first, but when leaves pile up on the AC unit, it could cause many malfunctions. 

Some different things that could happen from letting leaves crowd the AC unit include: 

  • The airflow is clogged and causes the unit to overheat
  • The unit is less efficient because it needs to work harder
  • The unit won't turn on

If the unit is covered in leaves, it might be best to call a professional to clean off the unit. AC units are fragile, and if they aren't cleaned properly, it'll make the problem worse. Luckily, by removing or pruning back branches that could cause issues with the AC, homeowners will also knock out another maintenance task off their list as well - yard work! 

Dirt and Debris Don't Help Either

The two main parts of every air conditioning unit are the compressor and condenser coil. If either one or both of these parts are damaged, the unit will have trouble working properly, and could lead to the system shutting down entirely. 

When the unit is covered in dirt and debris, it could easily lead to broken parts. This includes the condenser coil and compressor, both of which aren't the world's cheapest repairs.

Harrisburg experiences all types of weather. After a heavy rain or snowstorm, homeowners should check their outside units for anything that could suffocate or damage the unit in any way. Not only that, but the wind from the storm could cause damages as well. 

Why Heater Maintenance Is Important

For most people, when they have something in their life that means a lot to them, they tend to take care of it the best they can. This includes repairing it and cleaning it when it gets dirty. The same goes for any HVAC system. It is the heartbeat of the modern home and keeps the residents of Harrisburg safe from extreme temperatures.

Not only are the residents safer, but the unit is as well. A well-maintained HVAC unit doesn't have to work as hard to match the thermostat, saving homeowners money on their monthly bills.
