Atlanta has seen record temperatures this summer and this type of weather reinforces the need to keep one’s air conditioning system in top operating condition. A unit that is slightly undercharged with Freon can cause utilities to be as much as 30% higher and the home will not be dehumidified properly. A clean indoor coil and outdoor are a must to make sure an a/c unit is working to it’s rated capacity. The most common problem with a/c units in peak times is simply a clogged indoor filter. This will reduce the amount of air moving across the indoor coil and cause a possible freeze up. One should change the indoor filter more often in extreme weather conditions since the unit is operating more hours and the filter will plug up quicker. With a little attention, your a/c can keep you comfortable for years to come during these extreme temperatures.
