Spring cleaning isn’t just for clearing out cobwebs— it’s the perfect time to prepare your air conditioning system for a summer of hard work!  A seasonal deep clean can clear out dust and grime to ensure the cleanest possible indoor air and living space.  This is especially important for families with allergies, asthma, or other health concerns.
 
Feeling overwhelmed by the long list of tasks that come with springtime deep cleaning? Use this quick guide and checklist to breathe easier all summer long.

How Do You Spring Clean an Air Conditioner?

Clean indoor air and a cool summer home starts with spring maintenance. To spring clean your A/C, begin by changing the filter, removing debris from around the unit, cleaning your home’s interior vents, and scheduling a professional tune-up with your friendly neighborhood HVAC company (that’s us!)
  1. Remove debris and plants from around the AC unit: Chop down any weeds, mow the grass, and remove any leaves or debris that have piled up around the unit. Be sure that your A/C is off before doing this. If anything appears stuck inside the unit, call a professional. Bon Air is happy to help! 
  2. Clean return air vents: Locate the air vents near the floors or upper walls of your home. These vents can get clogged with pet hair, dust, and dirt. Use a clean rag and a little bit of water to wipe off any grime, then sanitize with a cleaning solution. 
  3. Test your air conditioning system: Finally, turn on your air conditioner. Go outside to check that the unit looks and sounds normal. Check your thermostat to see how quickly the indoor space cools down. 
  4. Schedule spring A/C service if anything seems out of the ordinary. Call our office at 972-264-2244 for immediate assistance. Our friendly customer service representatives are available to take your call 24/7.
