Time to Put the A/C to Bed for the Season.

You may still need to have your air conditioning system running for a tiny bit longer since the fall can sometimes pull out surprise heat waves. But soon enough, you’ll look at the upcoming weather forecast, see the low temperatures, and know that the cold weather is here to stay… at least until next spring.

Here are some tips for prepping your Colorado Springs’ home air conditioning for winter –

1.  Simply start by shutting off your a/c.

2.  Clean the condenser unit thoroughly.

3.  Give it several hours to dry with a cover over it.

4.  Schedule off-season maintenance service for the unit.
