When shopping for a new air conditioner it is important to understand SEER ratings and what it means for your home. SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) is a rating that determines the ratio of the cooling output of your air conditioner over the season. That number is then divided by the energy it consumes in watts per hour. A new air conditioner typically features a SEER of 13 to 14, with some units going as high as 21 to 25.

As temperatures start to gradually increase throughout NJ the amount of time your furnace is needed decreases. There are a few end-of-season maintenance tasks you can do to help ensure your furnace rests east and is ready to start back up without any issues next winter.
Here are 3 things that are simple and relatively affordable to do:
Inspect Your Thermostat – Check the battery on your thermostat during the change of seasons. A weak battery may create inconsistent temperatures in the house. Change the battery when you switch over from heat to AC.
Check Your Ducts – HVAC systems perform more efficiently when the air ducts are clean. A clogged or dirty duct will put a strain on your HVAC system and lead to poor air quality.
Replace the Filters – One of the easiest end-of-season maintenance tasks is to change the air filter in your system. Even though you are not using your furnace, many times your home’s AC system pushed air though the same filter.

Here are 3 reasons that furnace maintenance by reliable HVAC professionals in NJ is a mandatory, not optional, part of owning a furnace and heating your home:
Warranty – It can be tempting to rely on your manufacturer’s warranty for peace of mind and assurance that any repairs will be taken care of. But be sure to read that fine print carefully! Many warranties become void if you have not kept up with regular maintenance performed by a licensed HVAC technician.
Savings –Increasing monthly utility bills, large repair expenses, or premature replacement costs can all be avoided with an affordable annual maintenance inspection. Put this relatively small expense into your budget in order to extend the longevity of your investment and save in the long run.
Safety – Health and safety should also be considered as good reasons to schedule regular maintenance. Fire hazards, system failure, gas leaks, and ventilation are all risk factors that are connected to your furnace. Maintenance prevents these issues from impacting your family’s health and the safety of your home.
