Prepare Your AC Unit for the Winter

Many people either don't think to or just neglect preparing their air conditioning unit for winter. While you may think that AC maintenance is only a summer issue, it is actually important to keep up with over the winter. While it is unlikely that your unit will break due to cold temperatures, the winter weather can shorten its lifespan.

The first step you should take to prepare your unit is to clear off and hose down any debris that has accumulated on or around it. It is important to be proactive with this and not wait until it is already cold out.

After you have cleared it off, schedule a local Lansing MI commercial mechanical contractor to check your unit for any issues and determine if any foam covering needs to be added to the unit or pipes connecting to it.

Last, make sure you regularly check your unit throughout the winter to make sure no pipes are damaged and their is no other noticeable damage.
