New Year’s HVAC Resolutions for a Healthier, More Efficient Home

January 15, 2025

The New Year is the perfect time to start fresh—especially when it comes to your home’s HVAC system. Keeping your HVAC in top condition doesn’t just improve your comfort, it can also help you save money and energy all year long. Here are a few simple, yet effective New Year’s resolutions that can help you keep your HVAC system running smoothly.

1. Get Regular Maintenance

If you want to keep your HVAC system running like new, don’t skip the annual maintenance. Scheduling a tune-up with Mohr AC is the best way to ensure your heating and cooling systems are ready to perform when you need them most. Our expert technicians will clean, inspect, and tune-up all the essential components of your system, from filters to coils, so everything runs efficiently and safely.

2. Change Your Air Filters Regularly

A simple resolution that can make a big difference: change your air filters regularly. Dirty filters not only restrict airflow, causing your system to work harder, but they also lower air quality in your home. Whether you have allergies, pets, or just want cleaner air, this quick task helps your HVAC run better and keeps your indoor air fresh. Make it a goal to check your filters every month and replace them every 1-3 months.

3. Don’t Block the Vents

You might not think about it often, but your vents are an essential part of your HVAC system. Ensure your vents are not blocked by furniture or dust buildup. Unobstructed vents let air circulate freely, making your system more efficient and preventing unnecessary strain. With less stress on your HVAC, you can avoid unnecessary repairs or premature replacements.

4. Get Smart with Your Thermostat

This year, make your HVAC system smarter by upgrading to a programmable thermostat. A smart thermostat can save you money by adjusting the temperature based on your schedule. No more heating or cooling an empty house. With the push of a button (or an app), you can control your home’s temperature with ease and save energy, helping you lower those utility bills all year long.

5. Consider a New System for Long-Term Savings

If your HVAC system is getting old and not performing like it used to, consider an upgrade. Newer systems are not only more energy-efficient but can help lower your monthly energy bills. Plus, with the upcoming refrigerant changes in 2025, now is the perfect time to invest in a more environmentally friendly, energy-efficient system. Mohr AC is here to help you find the right solution to keep your home comfortable year-round.
