\"Don\u2019t<\/p>\n

So far, you\u2019ve managed the summer swelter as well as anyone can in the greater Phoenix area. But the heat isn\u2019t quite over yet. Because air conditioning is critical to comfortable living in the desert, it\u2019s a good idea to pay attention to these AC oversights that can crop up this time of year. <\/p>\n

Dirty Filters<\/h2>\n

This may be the most common oversight of all air conditioning-related issues. In Arizona\u2019s dusty desert climate, clean air filters are absolutely essential. Running your AC unit 24\/7 throughout the entire summer means you are moving a tremendous volume of air through your home each and every day. Replacing your air conditioning filters on a monthly basis is advised, especially if you have someone with a respiratory condition living in your home.<\/p>\n

Old Thermostats<\/h2>\n

Over the last three years, programmable thermostats have grown incredibly more useful and much easier to use. In other words, it\u2019s time to ditch the old school thermostat for one that\u2019s smarter. Consider these four top line benefits of a smart, programmable thermostat:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Smart thermostats learn your schedule and habits and will adjust the indoor temperature accordingly.<\/li>\n
  2. Raising the temperature when you are at work or away from the house saves money.<\/li>\n
  3. Programmable thermostats save you time. You won\u2019t be forgetting to constantly reset the temperature.<\/li>\n
  4. All models now include a smartphone app that allows you to control your thermostat from anywhere.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Procrastination<\/h2>\n

    One of the most serious oversights when it comes to air conditioning is saving money by foregoing regular service calls. It\u2019s easy enough to forget. Especially if your AC unit seems to be working just fine. Yet, it\u2019s important to remember that the Sonoran Desert is an unforgiving place. Many AC units are located on the roof where temperatures can easily exceed 150 degrees. Running flat out for months at a time, HVAC systems are put under tremendous stress. The simple fact is regular maintenance is the best insurance against expensive major repairs.<\/p>\n
