Here are the top tips to stay cool this summer with your air conditioning unit.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Keep Your AC Clean<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In the fall and winter months, a lot of dirt and debris can accumulate around your outdoor unit. When you keep it clean and clear of any leaves, dirt, and other debris, you\u2019ll reduce the risk of clogs. Clogs force your AC unit to have to work harder.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Invest in a Programmable Thermostat<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Programmable thermostats come in handy for those wanting to save money and have the luxury of controlling the temperature while away. These smart thermostats allow you to set temperatures for different times throughout the day. You can automatically lower the temperature you want \u2013 whether you\u2019re home or away \u2013 instead of having to constantly hover over the dial. \u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Change Your Air Filter<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It\u2019s recommended you change your air filter every 1-3 months depending on the activity in your home. Dirty air filters not only can lead to poor air quality, but they can also lead to restricted airflow. When your filters get clogged, it puts a strain on your unit and forces it to work harder. Say hello to high energy bills!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Seal Cracks and Openings<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Chances are you\u2019ll notice a basketball-sized hole in your wall and fix it quickly. On the contrary, what many homeowners don\u2019t notice are the small cracks and tiny openings. To prevent warm air from leaking into your home, you can add caulk or weather stripping to seal up air leaks in your doors and windows.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Cover Windows<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If the sun comes in through your windows, your home is automatically going to be much warmer. When you use blinds, curtains, or other window coverings, you\u2019re able to keep your home much cooler than it otherwise would be. The warmer your home is, the harder your AC has to work to keep it cool. By keeping your windows covered as much as possible this summer, you\u2019re putting less strain on your unit. Not only that, but you\u2019re saving money on energy bills.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Schedule a Professional AC Maintenance<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>At Roman Electric, we recommend you schedule a preventative maintenance once a year to make sure your AC unit is working at peak efficiency. Regular maintenances help homeowners catch problems early on before they become much larger \u2013 and much more costly. When you get a preventative maintenance on your AC before the scorching summer, you can rest assured your unit won\u2019t fail on you when you need it the most.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Schedule Your AC Maintenance With Roman Electric in Milwaukee, WI and Surrounding Areas<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Whether you need AC maintenance, repair, installation, or replacement, Roman Electric is here for all your Milwaukee, WI air conditioning needs.
