Spring welcomes the birth of new beginnings everywhere. It is the perfect season to turn over a new leaf, so to speak. It also happens to be the best time to tackle HVAC spring cleaning. Get the home prepped and ready for the warm seasons ahead by following these three easy steps.

At Bob’s Heating & Air Conditioning, they stress the importance of replacing furnace filters every 90 days. However, if someone has been recently ill in the household, it may be a good idea to check it early to keep everyone healthy.

Filter replacement program

Furnaces filters are also important to change during allergy season. HVAC spring cleaning should always include changing out furnace filters to keep the family happy and healthy all season long. Better yet, join their annual filter replacement program. Never forget to change a filter again because their filter replacement program automatically ships a new filter every 90 days.

Bathroom exhaust fans are used daily, but they are undoubtedly neglected when it comes to keeping them clean. Clean exhaust fans remove unpleasant odors and prevent mold and mildew from forming in moisture-filled rooms.

Dirty HVAC systems can negatively impact performance and efficiency of the indoor air

Similarly to bathroom exhaust fans, air vents should be cleaned too. What better time than springtime to get this taken care of? Most of the cleaning can be done by vacuuming, but some hard to reach areas may require the rag over a butter knife method. For floor registers, remove the vent and let it soak in soapy water.

Scrub the vent with a brush or sponge to remove any rust and dirt. Once the vent has fully dried, screw it back in place. Over the winter, dirt, debris, and dust can accumulate in the home’s HVAC system. Dirty HVAC systems can negatively impact performance and efficiency, diminishing the quality of the home’s indoor air.
