An HVAC system that functions properly is vital for every Corona home. Weatherproofing the system for the area can help to prolong its life. There are several things to do to tackle this task.
Duct Sealing and Insulation
If there are any leaks in your ducts, this could lead to a reduction in your system’s efficiency. You also want to insulate your ducts to further decrease energy loss. Professionals can use metal tape or a mastic sealant on your duct connections and joints, and then apply insulation to exposed ducts.
Cover and Clean the Units
If your units are separate, you want to cover which ever unit you are not using for a particular season. This will help to protect it from that season’s weather. Before you start to use it again, you should have a professional come out and do a thorough inspection and cleaning. This will help to ensure that it is ready for efficient use.
Get a Surge Protector
Corona is prone to electrical storms which include power surges. These surges can cause damage to your HVAC system’s electrical components. A professional can install a surge protector for your HVAC system to help to protect it against these surges.
Provide Adequate Shade
Direct sunlight can take its toll on your outdoor unit. It can also reduce its efficiency when it is operating. You can opt to install awnings or plant trees or large bushes to provide shade.
