Spring, before cooling season

Replace the filter and note the date
Clear grass, leaves, and mulch away from the outdoor unit
Rinse the outdoor coil gently with a garden hose
Confirm the condensate drain flows freely
Schedule a professional cooling tune up

Through the summer

Check the filter monthly during heavy run time
Watch for water near the indoor unit or stains on ceilings below an attic unit
Listen for new noises at startup, which often precede a capacitor failure
Keep the fan setting on auto to avoid re evaporating moisture off the coil

Fall, before heating season

Replace the filter again
Run the heat briefly on a mild day so a failure is discovered before you need it
Schedule a heating inspection, including combustion checks on gas equipment
Test carbon monoxide alarms in homes with any combustion appliance

Frequently asked questions

Can I pressure wash my outdoor coil?

No. High pressure bends the delicate aluminum fins and permanently reduces airflow through the coil. Use a garden hose with normal household pressure, spraying from the inside out where accessible.
