Keeping Your Cool in the Sunshine State
Living in Florida means dealing with intense heat and humidity throughout most of the year. Ferran Services understands that a properly functioning air conditioning system isn’t just a luxury—it’s a necessity for comfortable living.
Year-Round HVAC Maintenance Tips
To keep your cooling system running efficiently, consider these essential maintenance steps:
- Change or clean air filters monthly
- Keep outdoor units clear of debris and vegetation
- Schedule professional maintenance twice yearly
- Monitor your energy bills for sudden increases
- Clean air vents and registers regularly
Signs Your AC Needs Professional Attention
Don’t ignore these warning signals:
• Unusual noises during operation
• Inconsistent cooling
• Higher than normal energy bills
• Poor airflow
• Persistent moisture issues
Location-Specific Considerations
Whether you’re in Winter Park, Windermere, or anywhere in the greater Orlando area, coastal conditions and high humidity require special attention to your HVAC system. Salt air can accelerate wear on outdoor units, while humidity challenges require proper system sizing and maintenance.
Energy Efficiency Tips
Maximize your system’s efficiency by:
• Setting your thermostat to 78°F when home
• Using ceiling fans to complement AC operation
• Installing proper insulation
• Sealing air leaks around windows and doors
• Scheduling regular professional maintenance
Remember that preventive maintenance is always more cost-effective than emergency repairs. By following these guidelines and working with qualified professionals, you can ensure your cooling system performs reliably throughout Florida’s challenging climate conditions.
