AIR CONDITIONING TIPS Tampa Bay Keep your Air Conditioning Tampa Bay system in good working order.  By following these tips provided by Easy A/C, you’ll be rewarded with easy, breezy, cooling air year-round. Don’t ignore regular maintenance needs.  By keeping your air conditioning unit in top running order, you will reap the benefits of consistent performance. How old is your compressor?  Generally, they only last 10-12 years.  Good maintenance may stretch that longevity a bit more. Clean your air filter every month.  When debris accumulates, damage to the unit is possible. Give your duct system the attention it deserves.  Hook even the most advanced air conditioning unit in Tampa Bay up to a bad duct system and you’ll experience extremely reduced results.  Insulation and sealing go a long way toward reducing energy costs and increasing air flow. Know your refrigerant.  No units that use Freon (also called R-22) will be manufactured after 2010.  At that time, the manufacturing of Freon will cease as well.  If you plan to purchase a new unit soon, it may be more economical for you to select a high efficiency system that uses an earth-friendly refrigerant such as Puron. Brand names can make a difference.  Choose a unit made by a company like Carrier and you will know that your warranty is backed by a stable organization that has been around for years.  Carrier is well-known for its innovative breakthroughs -- in fact, they introduced Puron years ahead of the competition.
