As cool desert nights roll in, it’s time to get your properties ready for heating season. A little fall prep keeps tenants comfortable, lowers energy costs, and prevents costly mid-winter emergency service calls!
Here’s your must-do checklist as we approach winter in Albuquerque.
Why It Matters
- Prevent breakdowns before cold snaps.
- Cut energy bills with efficient operation.
- Extend system life with routine care.
- Keep tenants happy and leases renewed.
Essential Fall HVAC Steps
- Replace or Clean Filters: Albuquerque’s dust and dry air clog filters fast. Check monthly and replace before the first cold front. Consider high-efficiency filters for better air quality.
- Test Heating Systems Early: Don’t wait for freezing nights. Run systems now, and watch for odd noises, smells, or uneven airflow. Fix issues before demand spikes.
- Inspect & Seal Ductwork: Leaky ducts waste up to 30% of heated air. Have a technician seal gaps, clear debris, and check for pests or mold.
- Calibrate Thermostats & Controls: Proper calibration prevents hot/cold spots, tenant complaints, and wasted energy—especially in zoned commercial buildings.
- Schedule a Professional Inspection: Book now, before the winter rush. Our technician will perform a carbon monoxide test and check heat exchangers, belts, safety switches, and more to ensure reliable performance throughout the season.
