\"\"Everyone knows how energy-efficient a mini-split system can be used to heat and cool your home, as long as it’s maintained and serviced regularly. We have been providing New Jersey homeowners with 45 years of reliable comfort, and we know that yearly maintenance can equal big returns in performance and energy savings.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how you can keep your mini-split running all year at peak efficiency:
\n

Keep Filters Clean<\/h2><\/p>\n

Filters that are dirty restrict airflow and make the system work harder. Keep these filters clean or replace them every month, especially during the peak heating or cooling months. Very easy to do, this will reduce energy use and increase indoor air quality.<\/p>\n

Schedule Routine Maintenance<\/h2>
\nMini splits, like all HVAC systems, are best operated when all parts work the way they should; this is possible only through professional maintenance<\/a>. An inspection of coils, refrigeration levels, electrical connections, etc., by a certified technician will help in early detection of problems and keep your system operating well.
\n

Keep the Outdoor Unit Clear<\/h2>
\nThe outdoor condenser unit requires some breathing space, so keep it clear of debris, leaves, and snow from it. An inspection of a few minutes for each season will avert overheating with uninterrupted operating.
\n

Use Smart Temperature Settings\"\"<\/h2>
\nDon\u2019t set your thermostat too low in the summer or too high in the winter. Fine adjustments, just 2 to 3 degrees, go a long way toward boosting efficiency without sacrifice. If you have zone controls, take advantage of them to condition only the rooms you use, lowering energy waste.
\n

Seal and Insulate Your Space<\/h2>
\nNo matter how efficient the mini split, it can\u2019t be effective if the air is escaping. Good insulation and sealing always help to keep temperatures consistent and ease off the system.
