How To Properly Maintain Your New System

With proper maintenance and care, your new heating and/or air
conditioning system will operate economically and dependably. With a
few simple routine maintenance procedures you can ensure the best
performance and efficiency from you system. Remember safety first
consider these precautions.

     Precautions before you start: Disconnect all electrical power
sources to your system before removing any access panels to perform
maintenance. There may be more than one power source or connection
switch. Remember to be careful of sharp objects and wiring when
reaching into your unit.

Check the air filter in the furnace or return air filter grill every four
weeks and clean or replace it if it appears to be dirty at all. Dirty filters
cause excessive strain on your heating and/or air conditioning system and
can double utility costs. If accessible clean any dirt, dust, or lint from
inside the blower compartment or filter return area. Inspect your
furnace’s combustion area and venting system before each heating
season. If you find any soot or rust, A1 American Heating & Air
Conditioning should check your system.

Keep your outside condensing unit (air conditioner) free of debris. With
the power disconnected you can gently hose off or vacuum the outdoor
coil to clear dirt, dust, and debris. Make sure your outdoor condensing
unit remains in a level position at all times (split systems only). If any ice in
or around your working system please do not hesitate to call A1
American Heating & Air Conditioning for professional service.

If you are not sure about our self-maintenance procedures or for
whatever reason can’t maintenance your new system we offer bi-annual
preventative maintenance contracts for your peace of mind as well. By
being a contract holder you can benefit from discounted part pricing,
prompt service, and more. In addition to your routine maintenance, you may
want a professional inspection at least once or twice a year to ensure
that no major or dangerous problems exist and your system safely gives
you its best performance.

Simple Basic Troubleshooting

     Can I troubleshoot before calling A1 American for service? Yes you
can. Here are some simple procedures to follow before going through the
expense of a service call. Check the system disconnect switches or main
power sources indoor and outdoor if accessible. These disconnect
switches should be located within six feet of your unit(s). Make sure your
circuit breaker(s) are on and have not tripped, if your not sure if a circuit
breaker has tripped or not then reset it anyway by flipping the switch to
the off position and then back to the on position again. If you have a way
of checking your air conditioner fuses, make sure they are not blown.
Check your vents for sufficient airflow. Make sure filters are clean and
all supply / return air grills are open and unobstructed.

Check the settings on your thermostat:
·        For cooling make sure the temperature control selector is set below
room temperature and the system is in the cool and auto positions
·        For heating make sure the temperature control selector is set above
room temperature and the system is in the heat and auto positions
The fan (auto) position is for the fan to operate automatically when either
heating or cooling is in use. The fan (on) position is for continuous blower
operation and will not automatically shut off.
