Michigan homeowners urged to brace HVAC systems for summer heat

According to general manager Dayna Hottle, homeowners frequently overlook their air conditioning units until a total breakdown occurs during the year's hottest days. Beyond simple filter replacements, Hottle recommends clearing debris from outdoor condenser units and keeping blinds closed during peak afternoon hours to reduce thermal gain. These small interventions prevent cooling systems from overworking, which often manifests through rising energy bills and longer cooling cycles.

Scheduling professional inspections before a heat wave hits is critical, as technician availability shrinks significantly when temperatures climb. Those whose systems struggled to maintain a comfortable temperature last summer should prioritize service calls immediately rather than waiting for an emergency.
