April

Main project: Clean your AC condenser
As new foliage appears, so will problems with your air condenser and filters. There’s a lot of cottonseed and other things floating in the air. So, air condensers tend to fill up pretty quickly. This causes your HVAC unit to run less efficiently.

Home maintenance checklist for April:
-Arrange for an AC service with a licensed technician before the temperatures get hot.
-Replace any weathered siding or refresh worn shutters.
-Touch up or repaint your home’s exterior.
-Fertilize your lawn and fix any bare spots.
-Own a pool? Before anyone swims, remove the cover, clean the leaves, and ensure that all pump systems lyoperate smoothly.
