As the seasons change, so do our heating and cooling needs. At Four Winds Custom Heating and Air Conditioning, we understand the importance of maintaining a comfortable home environment throughout the year. Let’s explore how seasonality affects your HVAC system and what you can do to ensure optimal performance.

Spring: Preparing for Warmer Days

As winter fades away, it’s time to prepare your air conditioning system for the warmer months ahead. Here are some key steps:

• Schedule a professional maintenance check
• Clean or replace air filters
• Clear debris from outdoor units
• Test your thermostat

Summer: Keeping Cool When the Heat Is On

During peak summer months, your AC system works overtime. To ensure efficient cooling:

• Set your thermostat to a higher temperature when you’re away
• Use ceiling fans to supplement cooling
• Keep blinds and curtains closed during the hottest parts of the day
• Consider a programmable thermostat for optimal energy savings

Fall: Transitioning to Heating Season

As temperatures begin to drop, it’s time to shift focus to your heating system:

• Schedule a furnace inspection and tune-up
• Check for drafts around windows and doors
• Reverse ceiling fan direction to push warm air down
• Clean heating vents and radiators

Winter: Staying Warm and Efficient

When the cold sets in, your heating system becomes crucial. To maintain comfort and efficiency:

• Keep your thermostat at a consistent temperature
• Ensure proper insulation in your home
