A major part of your health relies on getting a good night’s sleep. That’s why it’s not just important to run your air conditioner during the hot summer days. You also need to keep your home comfortably cool at night as well.

Summertime is the season for rest and relaxation—except when pollen decides to crash your party.

Whether it’s people, appliances, or air conditioning (AC) systems, the better you know them, the better you are able to care for them. Our team at Precise Comfort and Climate Specialists knows air conditioners because it’s our business. We want to share just a little of our knowledge with you so you can extend the life of your air conditioner, avoid costly repairs, and save energy and money in New Orleans.

“An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” There’s a reason why that old adage has been passed down through the years. It’s always better to be prepared for misfortunes than to have to deal with the consequences. During storm season in Westwego, that proves true for protecting your air conditioning system as well.

It’s the first really hot day of summer when open windows, sun-blocking shades, and the ceiling fans just can’t cut it anymore. You resign yourself to finally turning on your air conditioner (AC)—only to find it blowing warm air, making funny noises, or simply not cooperating at all. It’s a scenario we all dread, and one that our professionals at Precise Comfort & Climate Specialists want to prevent.

Many environmental issues play a part in your AC’s performance and can contribute to potential problems you may face.

Here’s a comprehensive air conditioning maintenance checklist, courtesy of our professionals at Precise Comfort, to help keep your system in excellent working order.

In the springtime, considering how you can reduce your energy bills is always a great idea. According to the US Department of Energy (DOE), air conditioners use about 6 percent of all electricity in the country at a cost of roughly $29 billion to homeowners.

An air conditioner (AC), just like a car, needs regular maintenance and service to run efficiently. At Precise Comfort and Climate Specialists, we recommend getting your air conditioning unit serviced and cleaned at least once a year.

In the heat of the summer, it’s easy to assume that bigger is better when it comes to air conditioning (AC) systems. Obviously, if you have an air conditioner that’s too small in your Kenner home, you will not be able to keep your temperatures consistently low even if the unit is running constantly.
