How to Get Your Air Conditioner Ready for a Heat Wave

How to Get Your Air Conditioner Ready for a Heat Wave

As the summer heat intensifies, ensuring your air conditioner is prepared to handle a heat wave is crucial for your comfort and safety. At Air Professional Heating and Air Conditioning, we want to help you stay cool and keep your AC running efficiently. Here are some essential tips to get your air conditioner ready for the scorching days ahead.

1. Turn the Fan Switch to “On”

Typically, the air conditioner fan is set to “auto.” During extreme heat, it’s better to switch it to “on.” This ensures the fan is continuously blowing cool air throughout your home, even when the AC unit isn’t actively running. Once temperatures drop slightly, revert to the “auto” setting to save energy and money.

2. Close Off Vents in Unused Rooms

If there are rooms in your home that are rarely used, close the vents to those areas. This will redirect cool air to the more frequently used spaces, making your air conditioner work more efficiently.

3. Clean or Change the Air Filter

A dirty air filter can significantly disrupt airflow. We recommend changing or cleaning your air filter at least every three months. This simple step can improve your AC’s efficiency and air quality in your home.

4. Set the Thermostat Higher

During extreme temperatures, it’s best not to set your AC too low. Aim for a thermostat setting between 75-78 degrees. This helps your AC maintain a steady temperature without overworking, which is especially important during a heat wave.

5. Keep Shades Closed on Hot Days

Keeping curtains or blinds closed, especially on the sunny side of the house, can help keep your home cooler. This reduces the workload on your air conditioner, making it easier to maintain a comfortable temperature indoors.

6. Use Ceiling Fans to Stay Cool

Ceiling fans don’t cool the air, but they help evaporate perspiration from your skin, making you feel cooler. This allows you to set your thermostat a bit higher without sacrificing comfort.

7. Avoid Using Appliances on Hot Days

Appliances like stoves, dishwashers, and dryers generate heat, which can make your home warmer. Use these appliances during cooler parts of the day or opt for outdoor cooking to reduce indoor heat.

8. Inspect and Seal Ductwork

Leaky ducts can reduce your system’s efficiency. Inspect your ductwork for any leaks and ensure it is properly sealed and insulated. This helps maintain optimal airflow and cooling efficiency.

9. Properly Maintain Your Air Conditioning Unit

Regular maintenance, such as cleaning the condenser and checking for debris, ensures your air conditioner operates efficiently. This is especially important for those living near the shore, where salt can corrode AC components.

10. Consider Upgrading Your AC System

If your air conditioner is over 10 years old, it may be time to consider an AC replacement. Newer models are more energy-efficient and can significantly reduce your cooling costs. Our team at Air Professional Heating and Air Conditioning can help you choose the best system for your home.

By following these tips, you can ensure your air conditioner is ready to handle the heat wave and keep your home comfortable. For any questions or to schedule a maintenance check, contact Air Professional Heating and Air Conditioning at 908-284-2422. Stay cool and enjoy your summer!

Great job, very professial
The air system service provided by Air Professionals was exceptional! The technician arrived on time, was highly knowledgeable, thoroughly inspected the entire system, from the sales person to the installers they explained everything clearly before performing any work. They addressed all our concerns, We were particularly impressed with their professionalism, courtesy, and clear communication throughout the process. We recommend 100% Air Professionals.
Scott and his team are professionals and would recommend anyone in their servicing area to consider them a first choice for HVAC repair, maintenance, or replacement.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your glowing recommendation! Scott and the team pride themselves on delivering top-notch service, and it means a lot to hear you’d consider us a first choice. We’re always here for your HVAC repair, maintenance, or replacement needs!
They are outstanding in every conceivable way. We lived in the area a while back and after moving back last year, we looked at a couple of other options. We quickly returned to Air Professionals and I'm so glad we did.

It starts with Sean, who is the sales guy. But he is so much more than that. He makes sure he understands your goals and uses his extensive experience to come up with solutions that solves for them. He provides several options that take into account budget, applicability, and unit brand preference. He gives you a very clear explanation of each option and provides a clear and accurate estimate. We had a problem with getting air to our entire upstairs and we landed on a ductless system which turned out to be a great solution. We also had a new gas furnace installed as we recently had a natural gas line run down our street (halleluiah!).

Now for the best part. If there is any sort of rebate (e.g., government, vendor, or utility company) he is aware of it and, when allowable, submits everything for you and if he can't, he provides all the paperwork along with clear verbal and written instructions on how to get them. Same goes for tax credits. Oh, and they register the units for you to ensure you get all the warranty benefits.

Now for the installation. They take care of getting all permits and coordinating all inspections, which is a huge deal. They ran a new gas line for us. We also needed an electrician to do some wiring and they subcontracted that out to a trusted provider. They did all this in a timely fashion and the installers (Brad for the gas line and Antonio, Alex, and Sam for the furnace install) were all exceptional.

To say I am pleased with the service and outcome is a vast understatement. I plan to use them for all my HVAC needs, whether it is new units or service in the future. Everyone, including the back office staff you get on the phone is knowledgeable and courteous.

Please use them. I promise you won't regret it.
Great experience from a professional and caring company, from sales to installation. I’ve been using Air Professionals for service for a few years now, and had to finally replace two furnaces and an air conditioner. Two separate teams came on consecutive days and both teams were equally excellent. Would highly recommend them for all of your heating and air conditioning needs.
Response from the owner:Wow, thank you so much for such a thoughtful and detailed review! We’re beyond thrilled to hear about your exceptional experience with our team, from Sean’s expert guidance to the meticulous work of Brad, Antonio, Alex, and Sam during the installation. Providing clear options, handling permits, and helping with rebates and warranties are all part of our commitment to making the process as seamless and stress-free as possible for our customers. We’re also glad the ductless system and new gas furnace have proven to be great solutions for your home. Your kind words about our team’s professionalism, knowledge, and care mean the world to us. We’re honored to have earned your trust and look forward to being your go-to for all your HVAC needs in the future. Thank you again for your recommendation—it truly means so much!
Greg was the technician who did the Air Conditioner maintenance and went above and beyond the basics. He did an excellent job, meticulous and careful. Air Professionals put my existing unit in and have been excellent in their follow up service. No one regret.

Was very happy with Air Professionals. The tech arrived at the promised time and gave our system a thorough going over. I was also pleased that he took the time to answer questions we had about operating the system. The instructions from the manufacturer left a lot to be desired. We weren't using the system to it's max potential but he put us right. We were impressed.

I had a frozen unit and they came quickly and gave me the correct diagnosis. We were investigating a heat pump and Sean was awesome! He gave us such good information and explained the process. He spent a good hour looking at the system and writing a very detailed quote. Thank you so much guys! We will definitely be back!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your recommendation and for sharing your experience with Greg's service.

Just had A/C repaired by Antonio C. Who did an excellent job, worked quickly and efficiently, was very knowledgeable and professional, and got the system working. He took time to explain everything clearly and inspected the whole system and made very reasonable recommendations, without pushing any unnecessary sales or service. Highly recommend him!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the glowing review! We’re thrilled to hear Antonio provided excellent service and clear explanations. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to serving you again!
Extremely timely and professional. Explained everything he was doing and the associated cost. Couldn’t be happier with the service.

Greg came out after regular hours Friday to diagnose and then repair our AC compressor. Luckily it was a simple repair and the part was on the truck.

Highly recommend.

I had a frozen unit and they came quickly and gave me the correct diagnosis. We were investigating a heat pump and Sean was awesome! He gave us such good information and explained the process. He spent a good hour looking at the system and writing a very detailed quote. Thank you so much guys! We will definitely be back!

Just had A/C repaired by Antonio C. Who did an excellent job, worked quickly and efficiently, was very knowledgeable and professional, and got the system working. He took time to explain everything clearly and inspected the whole system and made very reasonable recommendations, without pushing any unnecessary sales or service. Highly recommend him!
Response from the owner:Thank you for the glowing review! We’re thrilled to hear Antonio provided excellent service and clear explanations. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to serving you again!
Extremely timely and professional. Explained everything he was doing and the associated cost. Couldn’t be happier with the service.

Greg came out after regular hours Friday to diagnose and then repair our AC compressor. Luckily it was a simple repair and the part was on the truck. He has a pleasant demeanor and worked efficiently and quickly to get us up and running again. We always have a good experience with Air Profesionals and have been a customer of theirs for years. Highly recommend.

Being a first time home owner can be stressful, and finding a trusted professional to service my HVAC was tedious. I came across Air Professionals through a referral, I’m glad to say that all of my needs were handled within one phone call. They sent out 2 very skilled technicians within 24 hours to complete the maintenance service. I am quite impressed at how quickly the service was completed. I’ll always have Air Professionals on speed dial!

My first experience with Air Professionals began with Nick, whom scheduled the service visit and numerous calls. Eric was the first service person to diagnose the problem. Corinne then emailed me with updates. Greg was here today to install the new parts. The entire experience; from start to finish, was a pleasant experience with competence all of the time. Thanks so much
