Tips For Changing Your Air Conditioner's Filters Before The Warm Weather Hits

By: First Choice Air on May 5, 2014
Your air conditioning system is in for a lot of work as the weather gets warmer in Southern California. Failing to change the filter for your air conditioner can lead to slower filtering, less effective filtering, increased growth of bacteria, and reduced efficiency. In short, dirty filters make your system work harder, which it doesn't need when it is especially warm outside. For some air conditioning systems you may only need to change the filter once every few months, but a better rule of thumb is to change it every 1-2 months. This is particularly true if you have pets, live in a polluted area, suffer from allergies, live in a windy area, live in a wildfire area or near a farm/ranch, or have more than one person living in your home.

Why Should I Have My Air Conditioner Serviced Every Year Even If It Is Working Fine?

By: First Choice Air on May 2, 2014

Your windows need to be cleaned, your house has to be washed, and your clothes need to go to the dry cleaning. You never question the need for these types of service, yet many people still don't realize how important it is to maintain your air conditioner and heating system with an annual service each year.
