Georgia’s weather swings from chilly winter mornings to hot, humid summers, and that takes a toll on your HVAC system. Routine seasonal maintenance is the key to keeping it efficient, avoiding costly repairs, and staying comfortable year-round. At Pruitt Heating & Air, we serve homeowners in Buford, Gainesville, Braselton, Sugar Hill, and surrounding areas with expert seasonal care built for Georgia’s climate.
Spring: Prep Your AC Before the Heat Hits
Spring is the perfect time to give your air conditioner a checkup. After months of downtime, it may need a little attention before tackling summer’s heat.
Here’s what you should do:
- Replace air filters to improve airflow and indoor air quality
- Clear leaves, pollen, and debris from the outdoor unit
- Check refrigerant levels and unclog drain lines
- Schedule a professional tune-up with Pruitt Heating & Air
Summer: Keep Cool Without the Stress
When the heat kicks in, your AC is working its hardest. Simple maintenance steps can help prevent breakdowns and control your cooling costs.
Stay cool by:
- Ensuring vents are clear of furniture or obstructions
- Using a programmable thermostat to manage energy use
- Monitoring your energy bill for unusual spikes
- Calling us if you notice odd sounds or weak airflow
Fall: Get Ready for Heating Season
As the temperatures drop, your HVAC system switches to heating mode. Fall is the right time to prepare before demand spikes during the first cold snap.
Fall maintenance includes:
- Changing air filters before heating season
- Testing the thermostat for accuracy
- Inspecting burners and ignition systems
- Scheduling a full system check to spot safety concerns
Winter: Stay Warm and Safe
Winter puts your heating system to the test. Regular upkeep ensures reliable comfort and safety through the coldest months.
Don’t forget to:
- Seal windows and doors to ease heating strain
- Test carbon monoxide detectors if using gas heat
- Watch for strange sounds, smells, or uneven heating
- Call for service at the first sign of trouble
