Breathe easy this summer
Summer is in full swing, which means that we will be spending more time outdoors, and seasonal housecleaning is the farthest thing from our mind. It also means that our air conditioners, ceiling fans, floor fans, and de-humidifiers will be in high usage. In fact, you can expect that the hot, and humid days of summer will also push us inside for a little air conditioned relief. The focus on cleaning all your fans and air filters is a necessary part of seasonal cleaning. Consider the following:
Change your air filters
One of the most overlooked items in many homes, is changing or cleaning your air filter(s). If your air conditioner does not seem to be providing its usual cool breeze, your air filter should be the first thing that you check. A clean air filter is the single most important, (and most economical) factor in the proper performance of your HVAC system. If you live without pets, you should change the filters about every 90 days. If you have one pet, you should be changing the air filter every 60 days. However, it is necessary to change the filter every 30 days if you own multiple pets. You should also change or clean your filter every 30 days if you suffer from allergies, or have a smoker in the house.
Cleaning the ceiling fans
It can be very easy to overlook ceiling fans. Both the ceiling fans and the table top fans are important to supplement or to use in place of an air conditioner. They also are important for increasing the circulation of the air in your home. Turning on the fan, and getting a blowback of dust is a most unpleasant experience, to say the least. Have you ever taken a look at the top of the blades and the housing on your ceiling fans? This reason that they are so easy to overlook is partially because they run constantly. Most of us never imagine them to collect dust, but they should be cleaned at least once a month.
